A day after RCA Records dropped R. Kelly, there are now reports that Tinashe has also parted ways with the Sony Music label.

Fans noticed that the ?2 On? singer has been removed from the label?s website. In November, Tinashe may have alluded to her split with RCA by posting a screenshot of a ?404 Not Found? error message that displays when you try to access her artist page on RCARecords.com. There has been no official confirmation from Tinashe or RCA.

The 25-year-old released three projects on the label including her 2014 debut Aquarius and last year?s Joyride, as well as her 2016 mixtape Nightride.

Tinashe had expressed frustration with RCA in the past, claiming the label prioritized other acts including labelmate ZAYN over her. When asked why her sophomore album Joyride had been delayed, she once told a fan: ?They?re focused on Zany lmao that?s the real tea.?

She also butted heads with her A&R when she voiced her opinion about the direction of her music. After expressing that she did not want to record a particular song, the label rep suggested she go home. ?He turned to me and said, ?Well, then we can just go home.? At this point, I burst into tears,? she told Lena Dunham as part of the actress? ?Women of the Hour? podcast in 2017.

Meanwhile, the singer is venturing into other areas. She is set to play Mimi in Fox?s upcoming live production of the musical ?Rent? alongside Vanessa Hudgens, Mario, Kiersey Clemons, Jordan Fisher, and more. ?Rent? will air live on Sunday, Jan. 27.

Good.  She seems like the type of artist that would fair better as a Indy..  she?s self contained..  writes,records & produces.  Hire a dope free lance marketing company & she?ll eat off of her fan base & tour

Singers could capitalize off of a good (10k) fanbase if they are smart.

Hopefully she goes back to her indie sound. Mainstream Tinashe music has been hit or miss.

Hopefully she takes some time to find her musical identity and really craft her sound.
