It was released on July 17, 2020. The song was written by Tinashe and her brother, Kudzai Kachingwe, alongside co-writer Alex King, and was produced by Sage the Gemini. BackgroundThe song was conceived during Tinashe's 'Songs for You' era. The song was first previewed on Instagram live several months prior to release.
Tinashe released a string of remixes from her previous studio album 'Songs for You', including "Hopscotch", "Die a Little Bit", "Touch & Go", and "Save Room For Us". Composition and lyrics"Rascal" (Superstar)" is a bouncy, "groovy, darker" track. Critical receptionMeredith Kile for Kare11 praised the songs sonic qualities, calling it "an expensive-sounding track". 'Brooklyn Vegan's Andrew Sacher called "Rascal" overall "a great dose of air, moody R&B". Criticism drew from the song's lyrical content in context of the time of its release of the COVID-19 pandemic. As Joan Summers from 'Jezebel' put it, the lyrics "[are] a perfectly fine sentiment, I guess, if we weren't currently living through these modern times". Music videoThe music video for the song accompanied its release the same day as the song, premiering on Tinashe's YouTube channel. It was directed by Jasper Soloff. The only feature in the music video is a Phantom 4 Pro drone.
