Ultimately, the conversation around Tink prompted the original poster to chime in and say that she should’ve been “the #1 R&B girlie” after “Treat Me Like Somebody” dropped back in early 2014.

The Love Comes As She Unveils A New Album
Notably, this conversation was sparked around the time that Tink dropped a brand-new project called Thanks 4 Nothing. The album was just released on Friday, and it features collabs with Ty Dolla $ign and Yung Bleu.
A few months ahead of this project, she dropped another album called Pillow Talk, which featured artists like 2 Chainz, Muni Long, G Herbo, and Layton Greene.
The grind doesn’t end there, though, as she released a whopping seven albums between 2014 and 2021!
Shoutout to Tink, and do you agree with the sentiment that she should be a bigger name in the music industry thanks to her artistry?
