Tinashe Pasadena

Singer Tinashe has been on a steadfast grind throughout 2021 with a string of releases and collaborations, now that her label drama seems to bed definitively over. In these past few months, the R&B trailblazer has teamed up with the likes of EDM pop duo Cheat Codes as well as an appearance on the “Black History Always/Music for the Movement” playlist by ESPN. Just in time for the summer, Tinashe is back again with an explosive new single “Pasadena” with California singer Buddy.

“Pasadena” will easily rise to your summer vibes or R&B playlist with its consistent and fast driving percussion. Tinashe floats in and out of the instrumental– layered with lush strings and synths– with refined melodies. Airy harmonies continue to expand the atmosphere of the track as the verses turn into chorus.

Buddy shows his impressive range as well, moving seamlessly between smooth R&B singing and fast-paced rap lyricism. Backed by Tinashe’s vocal layers behind him, Buddy’s bars about love and sexuality successfully interpolate the themes of the song.

Lyrics

[Intro]
One, two
One, two, three, hey

[Chorus: Tinashe & Buddy]
Feelin’ right, feelin’ right, feelin’ right (Woo!)
Livin’ life, it’s the life (Hey, hey, hey)
Feelin’ free, feelin’ free, feelin’ right (Woo!)
It’s a vibe, feelin’ right (Hey, hey, hey)

[Verse 1: Tinashe]
The summer’s comin’ ’round the corner
And now I’m feelin’ like I don’t even know ya
I’m never leavin’ California
Now more than ever life is all what you make it
I got a vision of a perfect night
But every day I end up goin’ through the motions
I wasn’t build for the simple life
In Pasadena singin’, “Do, do-do-do, do”

[Chorus: Tinashe & Buddy]
Feelin’ right, feelin’ right, feelin’ right (Woo!)
Livin’ life, it’s the life (Hey, hey, hey)
Feelin’ free, feelin’ free, feelin’ right (Woo!)
It’s a vibe, feelin’ right (Hey, hey, hey)

[Post-Chorus: Tinashe]
Up in the penthouse you see to the ocean (Woo!)
How did we get here, we don’t even know (Feelin’ so free)
Hands in the wind, racin’ out to the coast (Feelin’ so high)
Feelin’ free, don’t get better than this

[Verse 2: Buddy & Tinashe]
Closin’ the curtain and on the poolside cabana (Smokin’ on weed)
Mind my surroundin’, get a room if you like (Gettin’ so high)
We got faded, then I flew her to Miami (Miami)
I think I lost my visa
Never been the type that wanna be right, I wanna live life (Life, woo!)
Some say I’m psycho, but this shit here go in cycles (Cycles)
Tell all my rivals, “Save that drama for your momma” (Woo!)
Smokin’ ganja with my partners
Seen a bad one in the lobby, had to stop
She want sex so good it make a tear fall (Tear fall, Oh-oh)
Prancing around in that lil’ leotard (Oh)
When you’re not around, I go through withdrawals (Withdrawals, Oh-oh)
Withdrawals without drugs, don’t matter, darling, I take it all, shit

[Verse 3: Tinashe]
Lately, I’ve been feelin’ restless (Restless)
I try my best just to ignore all the nonsense
If only I could manifest it (Manifest)
My momma told me, “Life is yours for the takin'”
We’ve been workin’ way too hard, gotta live a little more
Gotta put my family on, daddy don’t need no more jobs
Always been a real good vibe
In Pasadena talking shit since ’bout ’02

[Chorus: Tinashe & Buddy]
Feelin’ right, feelin’ right, feelin’ right (Woo!)
Livin’ life, it’s the life (Hey, hey, hey)
Feelin’ free, feelin’ free, feelin’ right (Woo!)
It’s a vibe, feelin’ right (Hey, hey, hey)

[Post-Chorus: Tinashe]
Up in the penthouse you see to the ocean (Woo!)
How did we get here, we don’t even know (Feelin’ so free)
Hands in the wind, racin’ out to the coast (Feelin’ so high)
Feelin’ free, don’t get better than this

[Bridge: Tinashe]
Feelin’ so free
Feelin’ so high

[Post-Chorus: Tinashe]
Up in the penthouse you see to the ocean (Woo!)
How did we get here, we don’t even know (Feelin’ so free)
Hands in the wind, racin’ out to the coast (Feelin’ so high)
Feelin’ free, don’t get better than this
