"Superlove" is a song recorded by American singer Tinashe. The song was released by RCA Records on July 15, 2016. It was co-written and produced by Tricky Stewart and The-Dream.

Background and composition

"Superlove" is an electropop[1][2] and Miami bass[3][4] song inspired by the 1980s and 1990s era.[1][5] MTV's Madeline Roth found similarities between the song and Nicki Minaj's "Super Bass", calling the latter "a poppier cousin".[6] while Ben Dandridge-Lemco of The Fader compared it to Ghost Town DJ's "My Boo".[7]

Tinashe described the song as a "celebration of happiness. More specifically, it celebrates the kind of happiness that is so immense and infectious, that you can't help but to rejoice in it. I hope to eulogize this wonderful energy and make people feel good, love harder, and dance together."[6]

Critical response

Jessie Morris of Complex deemed the song "an easy contender for a summer smash with its breezy, free-flowing chords made all the sweeter by that incredible voice of Tinashe."[1] Rolling Stone's Brittany Spanos called it "bouncy" and "bubbly".[2] Adelle Platon of Billboard found the song "infectious".[8]

Billboard ranked "Superlove" at number 72 on their Billboard's 100 Best Pop Songs of 2016" commenting "Flashing back to the mid-'90s days when Miami bass funk mixed with freestyle ingenuousness for impossibly sweet dance-pop hits from the likes of Ghost Down DJ's and INOJ, Tinashe hit the beach for her sunniest single yet, the kind of irresistibly heartbreaking summer-love song that pretends it can't see fall coming around the corner. The fact that "My Boo" still managed to be a bigger 2016 hit than this must've been pretty sobering for pop's most undervalued star."[9]

Music video

The music video premiered on August 12, 2016, it was filmed in Malibu, California, and directed by Hannah Lux Davis.[10][11] The choreography was by Tinashe's longtime collaborator JaQuel Knight.

Critical reception

Collin Robinson from Stereogum summarized the video as a "sun-kissed beach clip with Tinashe and a group of bikini-clad "Bae Watch" lifeguards rescuing hot dudes from drowning before they hit some sultry choreography on vintage beach towels".[12] Danny Schwartz of HotNewHipHop described the video as the "greatest thing since sliced bread".[13]
