New York City’s Terminal 5 was packed on Friday, Feb. 9 as R&B star Tinashe played to a sold-out crowd. The singer-songwriter’s tour showcased her sixth studio album, “BB/Ang3l,” which was released in September 2023. The energy in the 3,000-capacity venue was electric as Tinashe’s stylish fans packed in, and the crowd eagerly shouted along with a projected digital countdown in the minutes before she took the stage. Tinashe emerged on top of a towering platform washed in blue light to sing her first song, “Treason.” She disappeared momentarily before reappearing at center stage, flanked by a group of athletic backup dancers, and transitioning into her upbeat track “X.”
The choreography for Tinashe’s BB/Ang3l tour is sharp and energetic, and looks truly effortless on the artist, who has been training in dance since age four. The crowd went wild with nearly every move Tinashe hit, and she worked the stage with a cool, laser-sharp focus. The BB/Ang3l tour continued through mid-April, and culminated in Tinashe’s set at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.
