New York-based creative Vashtie stays busy, releasing her very first mixtape titled “When Thugs Cry,” an ode to love as realized with a tracklist that leans heavily into ’90s r&b and hiphop songs referencing deeply-felt emotions. Vashtie premiered the tape with Fader, who she told, “I believe we are always experiencing at least one of, what I call, the six stages of love: yearning, infatuation, falling, deepening, heartbreak, and longing,”
In addition to the mixtape, Vashtie is once again handling the 1s and 2s for Charlemagne the God’s “Uncommon Sense” talk show, which kicked off its second season on April 1st. As well, she recently did a feature with The Coveteur, and discussed her beauty routine and vegan lifestyle.
