Tink (musician)

thumb Trinity Laure'Ale Home (born March 18, 1995), better known by her stage name Tink, is an American singer and rapper. Quotes It has been such a relief for me, it was a project that is so different from what I am used to. But it so well in terms of streaming and audience interaction, so it has opened my eyes to trying different things now and pushing myself to come out of my comfort zone more. It is a challenge. I think that is the best part of making the album, I am so used to working within my small team and when I went in the studio with Hitmaker, he opened me up to different elements, whether it’s different producers or having live instruments come in, and having different writers in a room to pitch ideas. That was all totally new to me, and my music is really personal, so on this album, we experimented with more up-tempo beats and brighter sounds. It was really just helping my sound grow, as I have over the years, and adding something different to what I’ve already been doing. I’m signed independently to Empire, a distribution company, and with Hitmaka being involved it was the perfect time to link. I had been making ‘Winter Diaries’ for a while then it went to hopeless romantic, and all these albums are just me pouring my heart out, being as honest as possible. And for once I wanted to make something that felt good and not so tense. ‘Heat of the Moment’ took my sound somewhere else; it is more of a summer album as opposed to winter, sadder vibes. I would for sure! But this time around I would keep my core sound if that makes sense. Looking back, I did really push the envelope a lot. I would still want to have that outlet of reaching out to different producers and stuff. But ultimately, I want my sound to connect with my day ones. I had a record on there for the day ones, the whole album is not my similar vibe but there are so many tracks on there that feel like Tink. But I did not want to keep repeating myself or what I can do, and I wanted people to miss ‘Winter Diaries’ vibes as well, so I had to shake it up. And that is what it’s all about as well, I do enjoy what I bring but ultimately, I have to evolve, my subject matter will change and it’s about making sure we’re ahead of the curve. We all go through similar things and do stupid things for love, and I just want to be honest and vulnerable without caring about being judged. We sometimes make music to look cool and that is not my vibe, I make it to really resonate with people and young women. The dark things we go through are not cool, but I want to keep them alive.
