Tinashe can

○○○●●

SOUL newcomer Tinashe's Mayday EP, a prelude to a full album later this year, shows a lot of flair.
Sure, there's some faintly cheesy production here which brings to mind the computerised over-enthusiam of Frankmusik's music and the vocoder vocals of Mr Hudson, which means that the So Shifty Remix of the lead track ends up better than the original.
But the raw songwriting and vocal talents from Zimbabwe-born Londoner Tinashe on the likes of Mayday and Miss You mean the full-length may be well worth a look.
