Blurring the lines of R&B and hop hop, Chicago-born rapper and singer Tink has been bringing her emotional resonance to visceral, entertaining soundscapes since her artistic inception over a decade ago. With countless big hitting singles and explorative bodies of work, her reputation proceeds herself, undoubtedly one of the most potent and charismatic names within the US R&B space.
This year saw Tink unveil perhaps her most confident and refined project to date, Thanks 4 Nothing. Boasting features from Ty Dolla $ign and Yung Bleu, the EP is genre-defiant, bursting with colourful production and savvy lyrical prowess. To celebrate the release of her stellar latest LP, Tink has been touring both North America and Europe. She recently took to London, Paris, Cologne and Amsterdam, blessing fans this side of the Atlantic with a rousing performance of the album.
In the midst of her tour, we had the opportunity to catch up with the R&B superstar, discussing the changing industry, her tour, and the making and message of Thanks 4 Nothing.
