Tate McRAE, one of the last sensations of international pop, prepares the launch of his next album, which bears the strange title of ‘So Close To What’ and is put on sale in less than a month, on February 21. A few months later, on May 9, McRAE will present ‘So Close To What’ in Spain, at the Vistalegre Palace in Madrid, within its 2025 tour.
‘So Close to What’ had appeared so far with two singles, the successful ‘it’s ok i’m ok’ and ‘two hands’. The third is enjoying a certain impact on the lists, and it is the song of the day for Thursday.
‘Sports Car’ is Tate McRAe’s new bet for the rhythmic and explosive sound that characterized the second era of Timbaland glory, that of 2006, the year in which he produced Super Survents by Justin Timberlake and Nelly Furtado. ‘Sports Car’ has a lot of ‘Loose’, although its grace is the way it manages to hook through a whispering.
‘Sports Car’ is a deployment of sensuality that manifests not only through the vocal action of Tate but also, through a letter full of sexual insinuations. ‘Sports Car’ is an ode to sex without ties, symbolized through the image of a “sports car” that leads Tate McRAe far away, all the distance you want. She imagines “doing it” everywhere, in the “corner of the bed”, in “the beach” or even she alone while her boy looks at her.
Submitted to pleasure, Tate McRAe delivers in ‘Sports Car’ a song that has nothing to envy to ‘Greedy’ and that is being positioned very well in the global lists: right now appears in the 23rd place in the global table of Spotify, Almost a week after its premiere. His virality in networks, especially in Tiktok, is contributing especially to his success. With luck, his entertaining video clip full of modeling and choreography will not go unnoticed.
