"I spent millions of dollars of their budget." That is "Nasty" singer Tinashe on RCA Records. She says that is why the label let her walk, and she calls it kind. In the video below, she explains why letting her out was "a no-brainer" for RCA. She signed with RCA in 2012. Her album Joyride took three years and, by her count, close to 200 songs, and it kept getting pushed back while the budget kept going out the door. By the time it came out in 2018, the fight with her label was public. She says she sat down with the people inside the label and asked them to let her out. Her manager said at the time it was RCA that "needed space." She put her next records out herself, on her own budget. For a while almost no one noticed. Then in 2024 she released "Nasty" through producer Ricky Reed's label Nice Life, and it went viral. It became her first solo entry on the Hot 100. She says her old label was probably "gagging." Close to 200 songs on RCA's budget. One song, five years after they let her go. RCA spent millions on a record that stalled. The hit came once she was gone. Did RCA waste three years on Tinashe, or did Tinashe waste three years of RCA's money?
