Tinashe admitted that she was surprised by the huge success of her song Evil.

The track has become an online trend with its “Match my freak” sentence goes viral.

In an interview with ElleTinashe admitted: “I didn't know it would be this big.”

The 31-year-old singer admitted that she has no expectations, saying: “I mean, no, just because I really don't put those expectations on myself anymore.”

“I'm just trying to make the best record and something that just feels good, and that's how this song came about,” she added.

Tinashe said that although she had a positive feeling about “Nasty,” she did not expect the film to be a huge hit.

“I feel like with every record I make, or a lot of my records, I have that 'this feels like a hit' mentality,” she said, adding, “But I definitely didn't know it was going to be this big.”

In addition, Tinashe also talked about the invention of the phrase “Match my freak” and said, “Honestly, it was a freestyle. So it wasn't even something I really thought about much.”

“I remember when I came up with that phrase, I was like, 'I don't think I've ever heard anyone say that before.' It was just one of those ideas,” Tinashe added.
