The energy is back—and it’s dripping with confidence. Today, Tashi and Samuel Mancini reunite for the release of their newest single, “WAT3R,” out now via AWAL/Eric West Management Group. A slick, hypnotic follow-up to their chart-smashing hit “SOAK,” the track arrives just in time to heat up the fall and remind us all why this duo hits differently.
If “SOAK” was the spark, “WAT3R” is the flood—overflowing with atmosphere, tension, and chemistry. Produced by Qkeyzz, the track layers ambient textures with sensual vocals and a rhythm that pulses like a heartbeat. It’s seductive, immersive, and impossible to ignore.
The writing credits read like a who’s who of rising talent and proven hitmakers: Tashi, Samuel Mancini, Lenisha Nelson, Dominique George, Eric West, Ebony Washington, and Qkeyzz all contributed to crafting a song that feels both intimate and cinematic.
In addition to the collaborative version, fans are also treated to a solo cut from Tashi, where her voice takes center stage in a haunting, powerful performance. Tashi—who has already made a name for herself through standout acting roles in Harlem, Straight Outta Compton, and Shaft—continues to bridge the worlds of film and music with effortless finesse. She’s not just acting like a star. She is one.
Samuel Mancini, no stranger to reinvention, is fresh off the massive success of his Latin crossover smash “Tu Eliges,” featuring Puerto Rican icons Eric West and Kedward Aviles. The track soared to #1 on the Billboard Latin Singles Chart and took home a Ritmo Latino Award for Song of the Year—with legendary producers Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis co-writing. That genre-bending success only added fuel to the fire Mancini first sparked with his debut project FEED THE FIRE, which notched tens of millions of streams and chart-topping moments across multiple platforms.
The magic between Tashi and Mancini isn’t just studio chemistry—it’s a creative partnership that keeps evolving. With “WAT3R,” they’re exploring deeper emotional currents and bigger sonic landscapes, proving that their artistry moves as fluidly as the track’s title suggests.
Don’t just listen—immerse yourself.
“WAT3R” is streaming now. Let it wash over you.
