If there’s one thing Tinashe understands, it’s transformation. She’s been a shapeshifter since day one — flipping from moody R&B prodigy to effervescent pop star to indie dancefloor darling, often within the same album. With the new remix of “No Broke Boys“ by Disco Lines, she leans fully into that evolution and emerges with something fierce, flashy, and economically uncompromising.
Originally a playful standout on her 2024 record Quantum Baby, “No Broke Boys“ rode the line between cheerleader-pop and radio-friendly R&B. The remix, however, ditches the bleachers and heads straight to the strobe lights. Disco Lines, the alias of DJ Thadeus Labuszewski, injects the track with pulsing house energy — think 2 a.m. warehouse rave with designer sneakers stomping to the beat. It’s maximalist and breathless, yet still leaves room for Tinashe’s signature vocal cool to glide across the surface like a glossed-over warning shot.
This isn’t a reinvention so much as a redirection. Tinashe has always made space for dance in her music, but now the club is her throne room. And she’s not wasting time making anyone feel comfortable. “No Broke Boys” doesn’t flirt — it demands. It’s a power flex wrapped in high BPMs, a sonic filter that weeds out the unqualified. If “Nasty” reintroduced her to the TikTok generation, this remix could easily solidify her place on playlists built for movement and mischief.
Disco Lines initially previewed the remix on TikTok, where it quickly caught fire — a familiar pattern in Tinashe’s second act. While some artists chase virality, she seems to harness it like fuel. It’s no surprise that the remix was given an official release after the internet responded with an emphatic yes.
Whether it matches the viral spike of “Nasty” is beside the point. What matters more is how effortlessly this track extends Quantum Baby‘s lifespan — and Tinashe’s dominance in a dance-pop landscape she helped define but never got enough credit for. With “No Broke Boys”, she’s not asking for space. She’s taking it — and collecting receipts.
