Background

Tinashe told Elite Daily: “This song is really on brand with everything we're going through, I think that's probably why I connected with it so much. I think we've all been through quite the year and we've all had ups and downs. It's really rewarding to see the type of people who have come through for us and have been there for us. It's all about friendship and love, and those types of relationships that have really kept us all going."

"Lean on Me" is a song for fans who have felt isolated amid the COVID-19 pandemic, and talks about the importance of friendship.[3]
