Following the release of The Heart, produced by the talented James Poyser and featuring a notable track with Jill Scott, The Mind is next on the docket. This installment pairs Tank with the versatile Iman Omari, promising a fresh yet deeply introspective exploration of her poetic vision. As Tank herself described in the afore, each part of the series digs into different realms of her life and artistry. The Heart deals with personal relationships and self-reflection, while The Mind navigates her thoughts and experiences as a woman in today’s world. The Soul, the final part of the collection, will blend conscious and subconscious expressions of her life and her hometown, with the production prowess of Robert Glasper.

Yesterday, Tank shared a sneak peek of the The Mind track listing on social media, sparking excitement among fans.

All three parts of the collection, including bonus tracks, are scheduled for a complete release on October 11 via Verve Forecast. In the meantime, music enthusiasts can enjoy The Heart and prepare for the introspective journey of The Mind.
