Tinashe, Needs | Midnight Heat 🕛 🔥

In the 77^th edition of Midnight Heat 🕛 🔥 (2023), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind “Needs” by R&B artist, Tinashe. 

“I’m not easy, but I’m feenin’ / I’m just human, we all got needs.” Ah, bring on Midnight Heat 🕛 🔥! Wait – it is not usually hot at midnight! Well, it is steaming hot 🥵 at midnight when it comes to this naughty, innuendo and sex-laden column featuring songs intended for nighttime. Yeah, we are talking about that after dark, bedroom boom $hi†, ya dig? These unapologetic records often raises both eyebrows and temperature alike. Woo! In the 77^th edition of Midnight Heat (2023), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind, 🎵 “Needs” by 🎙 Tinashe.

“Hands on my knees / They ain’t never seen moves like these…” Ooh-wee! These moves, 🎙 Tinashe, MUST be sexual 😈.  Even so, in the chorus of 🎵 “Needs”, the third track from 💿 BB/ANG3L (2023), the R&B artist asserts she’s more than just a banging body (“A1 body, but I take real mean (so mean)”). Mic drop worthy! Still, we know what you all came for, and that is S-E-X. No worries, because “Needs” references it plenty of times. In the same chorus where being on hands and knees happens, a simpin’ man begs for it… Tinashe wrote “Needs” alongside 🎼 ✍ 🎛 Royce David and Johnny Made-It, who also produced the track.

The chorus is the first major section of the song we hear, setting the tone for “Needs.” The post-chorus implies the needs of needs, which is good sex.  After all, doesn’t an “After party in between the sheets” make it clear what’s going down? And if the chorus and post-chorus didn’t do enough to establish a sexual vibe, the verse covers the bases.  Notably, “There’s no shirts or shoes required.” Also, Tinashe proclaims, “My body is a buffet / Eat my pussy, boy…” Yuh, that’s, um, TMI.. explicit.  There’s more, of course: “Damn, I can’t stand ya / Way we been at it, I can’t stand up, yeah…” 🎵 “Needs” isn’t deep, but the sex… well, Tinashe and this boy seem to hard… Worth noting, the music video 🎶📼 takes place in a grocery store, but still manages to convey naughtiness 😈. We wouldn’t have it any other way, Tinashe!
