Polynesian-Croatian-American artist TIHANE makes a bold statement with her latest single, “Ain’t That A B!tch,” a genre-blending track that fuses soulful grooves, future bounce, retro vibes, and electronic beats. Serving as the lead single from her upcoming debut album, The War On Love, the track showcases TIHANE’s unique ability to merge cultural influences and musical styles into a cohesive, dynamic sound.
Inspired by a raw moment after a painful breakup, “Ain’t That A B!tch” transforms heartbreak into empowerment. The song originated on a street corner in LA, where TIHANE recorded a melody on her phone in the throes of emotion. This initial burst of creativity evolved into a layered track with vintage samples, indigenous drum beats, and funky basslines, creating a bridge between nostalgic soul influences like Al Green and the modern grooves of KAYTRANADA.
The track’s blend of soul, R&B, and electronic elements creates a fresh twist on the classic breakup anthem. “It’s about flipping the script on the old, sad love songs we grew up with,” TIHANE explains, adding a new dimension to heartbreak with its smooth grooves and assertive message.
With “Ain’t That A B!tch,” TIHANE not only redefines the breakup song but also offers a powerful musical experience that’s both forward-thinking and grounded in classic soul. As she heads toward the release of her debut album, TIHANE is an artist to watch for fans of innovative, culture-rich soul and electronic music.
