Real people, real celebrities, real talk. Join the Breakfast Club. Black stalking it here. Weekday mornings, 6 to 10. real people real celebrities real talk join the breakfast club morning everybody is dj envy angela yee charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast club special guest in the room it's our favorite new rapper that's right i'm a fan of hers absolutely tink ladies and gentlemen what's up tink what's up y'all there's a lot of pressure on you yeah i understand it is i do understand all put on you. Yeah, I understand. It is. I do understand. All put on you by Timbaland. Yeah, Tim is excited like me.

He's passionate. You know what I'm saying? We know what we got going on. Now, explain the name Tink. Tink is a nickname. My friends gave it to me when we were young as a kid. My real name is Trinity. So, I don't know. I guess they just called me T we were young as a kid. My real name is Trinity. So I don't know.

I guess they just called me Tink one day and it stuck. I said it on the mic and I kind of liked it. It'd be like, poor little Tink Tink. Yeah, I get that a lot. No, it has nothing to do with the comedian, nothing to do with Tinkerbell. It's just my name, Tink. Now, you're from Chicago. Why no drill music or rapping about killing people in every

other song, or what gang you rep? I just think it's more to talk about than that. Coming out of Chicago, that's all people from Chicago know. So it's almost like I had to separate myself in order to, you know, get that recognition. Because for the most part, it's violence in Chicago, and growing up there, it is a very tough city to come from. So it's, like, my responsibility to, like, let kids know, like, that's not all you got to be about. It's okay to be different. You know, it's okay to have a message.

So, yeah, that was my way to just stand out and make myself different from everybody else coming out of Chicago. Did you feel like you had to do that, especially being what you were surrounded with? Like somebody had to tell the kids something different? You know, in my earlier years of rapping, I was doing drill music. Like when I first started rapping, Chief Keef, I had remixed his 300, and he had noticed it, and he retweeted it on his timeline. So that was like my buzz at the moment was drill.

But then the older I got, I'm like, you know, I'm kind of tired of just, you know, blending in with everybody. I felt like I was a follower. And you don't want to get shot. And I don't want to get shot, all that. Because people will go there with you in Chicago. So, yeah, I had to grow up, you know. That's growing up and you're only 20.

You just turned 20. Yeah, that's true. I'm an older 20 though Like I'm very mature for my age I get that, you know Let's talk about your old soul Like when the first time I heard your music I told Timbaland

I was like, she might be 19 But she's 50 Like you have an old soul Like the stuff that you rap about And talk about it Seems like you almost been here before Wow I can understand that

When I was growing up I listened to a lot of the records my dad had in the basement. When I first started singing, he would record me. So really, all I knew was what he listened to, and that were, like, classic artists. Older people.

Like who? This gonna make us feel old. Like who? Man, I listened to, like, Jodeci, TLC. He's supposed to be on the show this weekend. You know, Luther Vandross, Jackson 5, you know,

just real. I think that's older. Real old school music. Jodeci, TLC, that's all era though. That's your era. You know, the 90s. Yeah.

And there's also been a lot of comparisons, as you know, I'm sure you hear it all the time, to Lauryn Hill. You know, is that something that you embrace?

Oh, I definitely embrace that. If that was anybody I would want to be compared to, it would be Lauryn Hill. You know, is that something that you embrace? Oh, I definitely embrace that. If there was anybody I would want to be compared to, it would be Lauryn Hill. And she was pretty young. She was about your age when she was, you know, getting started too. And I think it comes a lot of times because I sing and I rap, you know, and also because I have a message within my music and I'm not just here to be a gimmick, but just saying what's popular or what's cool to say right now.

And that's your style. It's not like trying to be sexy. No, you know, I'm myself. I think that's where so many females go wrong. They try to mimic what they see on TV or what everybody else is doing instead of just being an individual. That's a lot of pressure though when they say you the next Lauryn Hill. You think that creates

an expectation that you may or may not live up to like just let me be Taint? Yeah I feel like that sometimes you know like uh when the blogs kind of just throw it in every every piece they write it's always you know you see the name so sometimes I do feel like that like uh you know just let me let me get in and we'll take it from there but like I say I don't I don't look down on it uh Lauryn Hill, she was one of the greats, so it's a compliment. Now what did you study as rapping? I was talking to Charlamagne and I

haven't stole records in a long time. I came from the mixtape days. And when Timbaland was here, I stole your records. That's why you got Tim in trouble with that moving bass. Well, besides that, I haven't had a feeling like that in a long time so when you know you talked about some of the singers like rapping who did you

follow as rappers because you the way you break words down and go back and forth it's something that we haven't heard for a long time i listen to a little bit of everything um you know i listen to lauren i listen to biggie i did when I was a kid. I listened to Nicki Minaj. And I listened to a bit of everything, you know. And my style kind of just, it's just now molding into what it is. I started, like I said, I started talking about drill things. And now it's more so of a message in my music. So it was something I worked at.

You know, I didn't, it didn't happen overnight. My first rap was probably terrible. Do you remember it? No. And I don't want to. I'm sure it wasn't it wasn't nothing to talk about. A lot of men have embraced you. Do you think it's harder for women to do that? Do you feel like women aren't reaching out like the men have been? For sure. Yeah, it's definitely like that i think um females we have like a lot of females have a mindset that you know if if uh something is something is better than i can't or i'm in competition or everything i have to be number one you know so it's harder for a female to reach out and say you're good because you know it's almost like a self-esteem

thing you know if you feel like somebody is a bit maybe a bit better than you you don't want to have a she's coming from my spot you think man but there's so much room like I don't even know why people think she's coming from my spot you know everybody thinks there has to be one female in charge or uh they put us in competition so much that we can't even support each other. We're scared to say, hey, you're pretty good, jump on my song, or, you know, just reach out. Has any female reached out and said that?

Jump on my song, or you're good, or I like what you're doing? Missy Elliott, Big Sis. Other than that, no. Why do you think female MCs always get compared to other female mcs i'm honestly not sure that goes back to just being the sport like being a female in a rap game you know uh i think it is a sport to it you know what i mean it's like it's a sport if you're you know nikki i think nikki or any artist out there has to say well let me see what she does first let me see how nice she is let me make sure somebody's not right with new guys like a new rapper could come out today they be like oh they don't know in the industry behind the scenes they make it seem like you can't sign

a female unless she has certain qualities she has to look a certain way yeah do this yeah and they make it seem like women are a lot more difficult because financially you got to get your hair done you got to get your makeup done you got to have the right clothes a lot of them are you know if you look at history you look at Lil Kim you look at uh Foxy Brown these women were hard to get your hair done. You got to get your makeup done. You got to have the right clothes. But a lot of them are. You know, if you look at history, you look at Lil' Kim, you look at Foxy Brown, these women were hard to get around and hard to move around and hard to work with at times, and everybody says that. You know, so it's, you know, it's history. You got a point.

But at the same time, like, that's what I'm trying to bring to the game. Like, a real, a true individual, I don't look at anybody and say, I have to look like you to make it. Or, you know, I don't pay attention. A lot of times I really don't pay attention to what other female artists are doing because then you get lost. You get lost in the sauce. But it's not even that it's you looking at it. It's people coming to you like, well, you know, she's good

and she has talent, but I just need her to do this, this, and that because this is what's winning right now. You're no pressure to get the ass shots, right? No, no. And it's crazy. When I got my deal, I really just wanted to, you know, I just wanted to get things like my gear and, you know, I wanted to get my teeth fixed and all that.

And they were like, don't get no ass shots. I'm like, no, I'm definitely not going to get that. That's the last thing I was thinking about. So definitely no ass shots. So it was executives no, I'm not. I'm definitely not going to get that. That's the last thing I was thinking about. So definitely no ass shots. So it was executives who encouraged that? Or they just... No, they told me... No, my team, they're behind me.

No, don't get that. Got you. And I appreciate that. Because some people might have, you know, well, you might need a da-da-da-da. Yeah. It wasn't like that. You know what was ironic?

I was watching the last time I seen Love & Hip Hop and your song was on there. Yeah. Right? And I was like, what is this ironic? You got a song. Ratchet Commandments. Yeah. That's what the song needed to be. And everybody was like it was Perfect Diamond, right? Right. And I'm like do they know that? You're kind of talking about them in that song.

Well, I think that's why they threw it in. Made sense. I saw an article that said your song The Ratchet Commandments is is sex-shaming women, or shaming women. What you think about that? It's not... See, but that's the thing.

When I made that song, it was more so, let's be aware of what's going on. Nobody's talking about this. Let's put it out there that this is what's going on. Somebody has to say it, you know what I mean? I agree. For the most part, we have so much of the Shake Your Ass songs or Watch Me Twerk type of music, so why not?

Why am I being criticized for being the one out of a million songs that goes against what everybody's talking about? Everybody doesn't have to do that. And you're saying positive things. You're like, yo, if a girl, if a guy got a girl. And I talked about males as well. You talked about males too. Yeah,

it wasn't just all putting shame on women. And my thing was, you know, when I made Ratchet Commandments, I was talking to myself three years ago. You know what I mean?

It's not like I'm trying to say I'm perfect or everybody has to think this way or you're wrong. It's not like that. I just want people to be aware. You know, young girls growing up,

they need to hear this type of stuff. You was twerking on social media? Man, when I was maybe in like junior high, high school type of days, everybody has their moment. But when you know better, you're supposed to do better. Right.

What do you think about something like Amber Rose's slut walk that she's organizing? Teachers, I wouldn't partake in a slut walk. It's just not something I think... It's not something I would do. It's kind of unfair to do this interview. The reason I say that is because we've heard so much music,

and there's so much music I want to talk about because we've actually heard the music, and I'm excited about it, but I can't talk about it yet. Well, let's talk about Tank then. What's the female experience like in Chicago? Do women go through the same thing guys go through? Like pressure to join gangs and stuff like that? Yeah for sure.

Females in Chicago man a lot of times it's like females and guys they're the same. And that's just because the drill scene in Chicago is so heavy and influential. Females almost, they feel like if I don't rock

with this gang, I ain't cool. It's not cool to say, no, I'm not a part of the gang. It's almost like a family type of thing. You feel like you're disloyal if you're not out here gangbanging. That's what I'm saying.

It comes across in the music. A lot of female rappers from Chicago, they're drill. And I was at one point, too, a part of that. Explain to people what drill is. Some people might not know what drill is. Drill music is really just like a gritty sound. It's about, you know, violence. It's very vulgar.

Lil Durk. Chief Keef. Durk, Keef. You know, that whole whole movement Lil Reesey Y'all know Did they ever try to make you claim a set? Never And you had to pick a number?

Never I wouldn't even put myself in that position Where somebody you know Never like Never was that Now with Timbaland Is it harder to work with Timbaland Or is it easier?

Do you have to prove yourself more? How'd you even get with Timbaland? I got with Tim. He heard a record idea called Don't Tell Nobody in LA and he got me on the phone and he flew me out the next day to talk to me. And from there we got in the studio

and it was just like a real genuine chemistry with Tim. So it is very easy to work with him. You know, a lot of producers, they'll get in the studio and they tell you, like, they know it all. Or you have to sound like this. You're not doing that right.

And with Tim, it's like a partnership. It's the teamwork. It's a team effort. So he listens just as much as he talks. Now, with him, is it, you know, with some of the doors that are opening, is it, do you feel like you have to prove yourself even more to the people? Or is it a little easier to getting a feature or to getting something done?

It's a bit of both. You know, Tim definitely, he has those tricks in the bag that have helped me a whole lot, you know. But at the same time, that push and that pressure is motivation. Like, when I go in the studio with Tim, I know I can't do what I was doing 10 years ago, well, you know, five years ago, I'm sorry. I have to be better. You know, and I think in the studio with Tim, I know I can't do what I was doing 10 years ago. Well, you know, five years ago.

I'm sorry. Right. I have to be better. You know, and I think every artist needs that. You know, sometimes we get so comfortable with what we were doing, we forget, you know, I got to evolve. I got to switch it up a bit to be greater. He said you cleaned him up a little bit, too. He said he was wearing sloppy clothes.

He was. He was wearing big white t-shirts. Yeah, I heard y'all. Khaki pants. He looked like he was a fiend. He said you cleaned him up. He started dealing with you. He was. Stimlin' wearing big white t-shirts. Yeah, I heard y'all. Y'all tried to get over him. Khaki pants. He looked like he was a fiend. Until you cleaned him up. Started dealing with you like you was a deal. Yeah, he always telling me, like, you making me young again. And it makes me laugh.

Because Tim is a cool guy. Like, if you ever talk to him, he is just a silly person. He is a kid at heart. So, yeah. You have to tell him sometimes, man, that B is kind of whack. I would never say that B is whack. You know, I would never say that beat is whack. You know, I would never say that beat is whack. You know what I mean?

I wouldn't say it's whack, but I'm like, okay, Tim, let's change this part up, or let's mix this beat. You know what I'm saying? It's an effort, a team effort. I would never say it's whack, though. Is it true you always wanted to work with him? I did.

Charlamagne, you'd be surprised. Growing up, I listened to every artist that he worked with. Missy, I watched her videos sitting on the couch every single day. Missy, Aaliyah, Justin Timberlake. And I was telling Tim a month before I met him, he was working with an artist. Her video was on TV. I think her name was Naima Supreme. And I was like, man, what did she do to get with Tim?

You know, I just wanted to know, how do you get to Timberland? And a month later, it was like, man, it was some destiny type of thing going on because he called me a month later after I was thinking that, watching that video. That's the law of attraction. Your thoughts become things. Do you watch Sisterhood of Hip Hop or anything like that?

I watched a few episodes. You know, I caught a few. Try to get material right. What? Try to get material right. Now, does it embarrass you When Timbaland Like jumps out there And says things like

Aaliyah came to him In a dream And said you were the one Cause I saw him do that On stage Yeah We were at South by Like okay

Okay Tim We were in favor for it No I wasn't embarrassed I was more so Just thinking about Just the reaction Because I know You know

For Tim to say that On a big stage a big platform like that so many cameras people recording I really automatically knew people were going to take it as if

Tim saying Tink is the next Aaliyah and my thing was Tim never said that in fact if you watched the video before he said that he was like

I'm not saying Tink is better than Aaliyah he said that and I want people to know there will never be another Aaliyah she is a legend. And I want people to know there will never be another Aaliyah. She is a legend in her own right. What Tim basically was saying, and he's talked to me about this before,

it wasn't like he was just babbling on the mic. Basically, it was confirmation. He had a dream that Aaliyah came and said, she's the one. Not she's the next me, the one. Meaning, you know, what we're doing, you're going in the right path. It's going to be something big so I believe that are they embracing you in Chicago for sure my city shows me so much love it's a good feeling because Chicago is a very it's a very hateful city like we hate on our own

in Chicago so coming up I did struggle you know trying to get on my feet coming out of Chicago but now it's a different type of love because they see where I'm going and what I'm trying to do for my city. You wanted to be a radio host growing up, right? Yeah, I did. I like the way y'all sound, how y'all hype people up in the morning. When I was a – every day my parents would take me to daycare and I'd be like a kid in the backseat hearing voices

and they just kind of made the day pick up. You showed all the radio people you had to see a therapist. What's up? The voices you was hearing. The voices? You said you was hearing voices in the morning. On the radio. Oh.

Now, when we first started playing your record in the morning, Timbaland came up here. He played it for Charlamagne, and Charlamagne told me about it, and Timbaland was inviting me to the studio. He came up here, he played the record. When we played it that first day, I mean, we played it over and over again. What was the reaction? Were you listening?

Were people hitting you? I mean, we played it over and over again. What was the reaction? Were you listening? Were people hitting you? I was getting all type of love. I was definitely listening. I was in Chicago at the moment and everybody was kind of hitting my Twitter. And I think I jumped up at least like 6,000 followers

just off of what y'all did in this room. Okay, okay. Yeah, shout out to the Breakfast Club. Y'all really like gave me a big push. And I didn't expect it to be like that, you know, and it's crazy how the music just hit people

and affected people to the point where they were going crazy. Everybody will cause a one-stat now. They'll be like, can you do what you did for Tink? I'm like, Tink got music. Tink got the records. Tink sounds great. And we're going to want you to spit this morning. To have good music.

What's up? We're going to want you to spit. You tweeted, I want you to take me serious. Do you feel like people aren't taking you serious? Oh, no. I was in my feelings. I was listening to a song. What song was it?

I knew people would look at it like that. It was Big Sean. I think, what's the name of that song? He has a record, Play No Games. Oh, yeah, yeah. That's with Kanye. No, no. It was with Chris Brown and Ty Dolla $ign Yeah, that's what a Kanye no no so a Chris Brown and Todd Allison

So that was that's that's what that was about. I think people do take me serious though And if they don't I really do want you to why that song have you in your feelings you just feel like was that about? The industry or dude it's about a guy the song was it's a cute song Don't you get caught up in no boys now? Okay, it's not like that I just like the I like the message behind that that simple phrase. I want you to Now, don't you get caught up in no boys now. You 20. It's not like that. I just like the message behind that simple phrase. I want you to take me serious. Got you. That's all I'm talking about.

Now, what about the braids? You don't have them in today, but sometimes you like to rock braids. I switch it up sometimes. I do rock my braids, and it's crazy. I got love for my braids, but at the same time, I didn't understand why people were offended by my braids. They were offended? They were offended by my braids. You were offended?

Offended? Yeah, like I got a couple comments, you know, like, you know, just people saying you trying to be the brat or you think. The brat? Take those beads out. And I didn't understand because it's like, you know, honestly, if you, it's a hairstyle, but if you really, man, if you do your research, beads actually, for our culture, beads mean a lot. A lot of positive things beads mean. And people don't really understand that this is a part of our culture. We were wearing beads hundreds of years ago.

So I took it, and I really didn't care. You know, I'm going to really do what I want to do because I like my beads and my braids. Absolutely. All right, when we come back, we're going to get some music on. We want you to spit a little bit. That's what I'm excited about. Okay. Okay, okay, okay.
