TSENATE's debut EP, love never adds up, delicately captures the essence of teenage love and the transitional phase into adulthood. Through these collected moments, the R&B songstress gives us an intimate look into her teenage years. Each track, penned in TSENATE’s bedroom, narrates the painfully beautiful chapters of her teen relationships, grappling with heartbreak and self-doubt.

Listen to love never adds up HERE

Produced by Alinafe Kalengamaliro (tracks: game for 2, 2 the bone and 4 the ride) and GueztheKid, aka Sid Isaiah Dalin (tracks: girl 132 and no1 else feels like home), this project also has standout contributions from local musicians. Notably, Serebii lends his guitar magic to 2 the bone, and Tee Haoickin from Ersha Island 二沙岛 as violinist on game for 2.

The project is paired with a captivating music video titled girl 132 directed by Mark Whittet. According to TSENATE, the video concept revolves around five girls 'auditioning' to be the leading lady in the love interest's life. It showcases the lengths we often go to in order to win someone's affection. Amidst this seemingly competitive backdrop, girl 132 experiences a revelation - sometimes, despite our best efforts, some connections are “just not meant to be." It's a poignant reminder that love isn't solely about winning a role; it's about finding compatibility. Through this transformative journey, TSENATE imparts a resounding message: self-love is the key to unlocking the most meaningful connections.

love never adds up paints a vivid introduction to TSENATE’s world.
