The wait is over—“WAT3R” is finally here. Powerhouse talents Tashi (also known as Tashiana Washington) and Samuel Mancini have officially dropped their scorching new single via AWAL/Eric West Management Group today, October 3rd, 2025—and it’s already making serious waves.
Following the global success of their previous collaboration, “SOAK”—which shot to #1 on the U.S. R&B iTunes Chart, reached #3 in the U.K., and broke into the Billboard R&B Top 10—Tashi and Mancini return with “WAT3R,” a bold and electrifying follow-up that further cements their undeniable chemistry and cross-genre power.
“WAT3R” (pronounced Water) delivers a blend of cinematic production, seductive vocals, and hypnotic beats, creating a club-ready anthem poised for international impact. Produced by Qkeyzz, the track was co-written by a powerhouse team including Tashi, Samuel Mancini, Lenisha Nelson, Dominique George, Eric West, Ebony Washington, and Qkeyzz.
A solo version of the track by Tashi is also out now, showcasing her signature edge and vocal command—further reminding fans why she’s been hailed by Rolling Stone as a “Breakout Star to Watch.” Known for standout performances in Harlem, Betty, and Straight Outta Compton, Tashi continues to shine as both an actress and a chart-topping recording artist.
Meanwhile, Samuel Mancini is riding high from his Latin crossover hit “Tu Eliges,” featuring Puerto Rican legends Eric West and Kedward Aviles. That single debuted at #1 on the Billboard Latin Singles Chart, cracked the U.K. Top 50, and was co-written by Grammy-winning duo Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis, earning a Ritmo Latino Award for Song of the Year.
His previous mixtape, FEED THE FIRE, racked up nearly 50 million global streams and made waves on multiple Billboard charts, including a #1 debut on the Top New Artist Albums Chart. With multiple iTunes Top 20 singles and #1 Apple Music videos under his belt, Mancini continues to push the boundaries of pop, R&B, and now Latin music.
Together, Tashi and Samuel Mancini have proven lightning can strike twice. With “WAT3R,” they’re not just back—they’re bolder, louder, and fully in their element.
Stream “WAT3R” now. The flood has officially begun.
