Nightride

Nightride is the second studio album by American singer Tinashe. It was released on November 4, 2016 through RCA Records. Serving as a digital release issued ahead of her long-delayed third album Joyride, the project includes previously released singles such as "Company", and "Ride of Your Life". The album's version of "Party Favors" omits rapper Young Thug's guest verse, and unlike her previous releases, Nightride features no other guest appearances.

Conceived alongside Joyride as two parts of the same project, Tinashe described Nightride as reflecting her interest in exploring multiple sides of her identity, emphasizing duality and variety in her music. She also released a short film of the same name to accompany the album.

Musically, Nightride continues Tinashe's atmospheric R&B style, defined by sparse production and layered vocals. It received generally favorable reviews from music critics, who noted its moody and after-hours sound, and was described by Billboard as the darker counterpart to Joyride. The album peaked at number 89 on the US Billboard 200 and appeared on several year-end best-of lists, including Rolling Stone, Fuse, and Uproxx.
