Tino Taps Solo Sae For New Single “HOW YOU FEEL”

Tino is back after dropping the Video for Honest from his DRMSTATE EP, He collaborates with Solo  Sae on this one titled HOWYOUFEEL the song is about what it feels like when things finally start  going your way. There were hard times, there were people who doubted you, the person you loved  walked away, but now things are looking up 

Tino is an artist/producer from Johannesburg, South Africa bringing dark, ethereal sounds to the  world. Growing up, his affinity for singing and dancing expanded as he gained inspiration from acts  such as Chris Brown, Usher, and Trey Songz. He spent most of his adolescence honing these skills in  the shadows, growing ever more connected to the craft. He then found himself heavily influenced by  the influx of new age R&B artists and surrealism. The result is a self-termed “Lucid R&B” artist, who  delivers a fusion of late night R&B and melodic turn-up rap. Tino upholds the idea of self empowerment and limitless potential. This is evident in how the self-taught artist sings, writes, and  dances all the while doing all the production, mixing and editing. However, on this latest release he  has enlisted Malawian hip hop legend Dominant 1 to oversee the mixing and mastering. With this,  Tino is looking to further establish himself as an artist to watch and continue to grow his global fan  base. 

You can Stream HOWYOUFEEL on all streaming platforms:

When asked how he met and made the Picanto record with the then-upcoming rapper OdumoduBlvck, Zlatan revealed that he met the rapper a year before, through a mutual friend, who happened to be PsychoYP.

Remember OdumoduBluck had revealed during one of his early interviews sometime this year that he needed the Zlatan verse in order to be able to secure an advance with his label, a gesture that Zlatan provided with love.
