"Bet" is the second song on Tinashe's Aquarius, and it's a statement, bringing together a serrated beat from DJ Dahi, a guitar solo from Blood Orange's Devonte Hynes, and plenty of swagger from Tinashe: I'll be here to hold ya: Bet on it. In the track's visual, the singer works to humanize a bleak urban landscape, dancing and contorting her way through an empty tunnel and a mostly vacant parking garage. She then segues into a bit of "Feels Like Vegas," which opens with the line: Let me set the stage for ya/ 'Cause I know you like it when I dance for ya.
