    Because she's fully independent doesn't she cash all the checks

    Nope.

    I mean, tbh it 100% on how independent her s*** is.

    Some people like me can be independent and take home most of net profit because I write the record, the cut the record, produce the record, work on the artwork, there was no featured on No love lost, etc

    I don’t think Tinashe is doing all of that herself. She’s certainly taking home more as an independent artist but she’s also spending more too, and at 7k sold its hard to know how much of a profit she made off the album

    Everything cost and making an album even at the independent level can be expensive but maybe she wrote it all and cut cost in other efficient ways

    She posting stats on her IG SAYING 21 million streams. Is this only her sales number not including streams?

    I haven't seen her posts but maybe she's posting global numbers?

    1500 streams = 1 album sale. 21M/1500=14k

    So it'd be 7k US, 7k rest of the world.

    There are other writers and producers on this album

    She also has featured artists

    Idk how much this accounts for but she made at least 2 music videos for 2 of this album's singles

    I'll never understand music-wise how Doja can be so big and Tinashe keeps scratching the bottom. Did we reach the stage where gimmicks are fully more important than the actual product ?

    It’s been that way for awhile now lol. Doja blew up from that cow song which is basically a meme.

    she lacks the it factor, no fanbase whatsoever. no fangirls are living thru her vigorously.

    shes just not that flashy for a popster or interesting enough for an indie act

    Yeah but like as I see things there's really no way that the difference should be THIS big between them. If you want the added gimmicks as an extra layer ok fine but 7k to almost 200k ? Music seems like a non factor when it should actually be the most important one

    Plus her album was well received critically

    MF DOOM and Sun Ra never sold much and they're legends and highly influential.. sales are overrated

    Ain't no such thing as a IT factor it's just Sony's or any label PR team working extra hours to shove an artist down our throat

    Okay? Was the music good? Thats all that matters.

    Definitely, since she left her label the quality has been consistently good

    That's the worst part, the music is actually good if any of the high profile artists had the same song she made with Jeremih that s*** would probably top the charts

    That makes sense.

    It's crazy how you can have that can't followers and they won't peep your music.

    She's basically a glorified influencer. No different than a YouTuber or tiktoker who starts making music.

    I think she has everything she needs, she's fun, sexy, and she can sing and dance. She just f***ed up after Aquarius and people moved on.

    The Shy Guy song sound like pinkpanthress but it's the hardest song on the album. Tinashe need a permanent jack move
