Tinashe - "Aquarius" [Music Video Premiere!]
Where did the money for budgets go?
It seems clear RCA Records won’t be releasing a new single from Tinashe’s super-underrated debut album “Aquarius”. The album failed to impress money-wise during its first week of sales last week – debuted at no. 17 (!!!) with only 18k copies sold – and the second (and last) single “Pretend” only managed to reach no. 34 on Billboard’s US Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs Chart – and it did not rank on the Hot 100, unlike smash hit “2 On”.
So what’s the future of “Aquarius”, the album? It’s up to Tinashe herself to keep “pushing” it, using her own money that is. And she’s doing that!
The stunning R&B singer debuted today (Feb. 6) an official music video for the title track, “Aquarius” (one my favorites on the album!). The low-budget clip, directed by Tinashe, shows the 22-yer-old looking hot in a revealing ensemble of sport bra and leggings as she wanders through her own house and sexily spins around while lied down on the wood floor. All while serving ‘lustful’ face.
Where did the money for budgets go? Well, RCA ain’t supporting anymore and intelligent Tinashe won’t be spending a lot of money on a music video that she knows not a lot of people are going to watch (keeping it real…).
