专辑简介

Born and raised in Tokyo, Japan in an Indian family, Naashi was exposed to myriad cultural influences from a young age. This reflects in her eclectic taste. Bollywood, Grime, old school Hip-Hop, Pop, and R&B are all genres she loves and listens to and that have left subtle impressions on her style. With such a diverse range of influences, what ties her songs together are the melancholy, homesick lyrics and fresh urban sound. The name Naashi, is a childhood nickname, she goes by to remind herself of her roots. Singers and songwriters she admires and tries to emulate in her music include Frank Ocean, Ty Dolla $ign, Starrah, Jhene Aiko and Childish Gambino, to name a few.

"In Time" began one song at a time, entirely separate from each other. Alongside her producer Nick Kodonas who is currently a student of Music Production and Design, and Electronic Production and Design at Berklee College of Music, she would come to the the studio with a song idea, and work with him to manifest her vision. Although the songs on this E.P. were crafted individually, ultimately, she found that they had a running theme through them. Each one had a unique, young take on some of the most commonly written about subjects in mainstream music today. They explore heartbreak, rejection, and divulge her uncertainty about herself. Whether it is through the choice of a certain word in a phrase, or a particular sound that she and Nick have chosen, the songs on this E.P. introduce a new tone for Pop/R&B. Entitled "In Time", this release is a way for listeners to catch a glimpse of the world through Naashi's eyes.
