The circle jerks every time she tanks as if its shocking  

[mellenthin]

She really set the new standard for the girls. A cultural reset indeed.

Both Wildside and Motivation debuted in the Top 40 with double the numbers lol 

Yeah I don't see her releasing an album at this point

and I think in the future she won't be able to get high-profiled collabs unless it's with her label mate doja or something

ma'am just become an r&b girlie and stop waiting 6 months between single releases. 

Rnb girls release whole projects in the time it takes this girl to put out one single 

 

Fair would’ve made sense if it came after Love lies and Waves in 2019, but now as a 6 month later follow up to wild side? What’s goin awn?

 

But if this Bieber b side is the one to finally break her through I’ll scream

[Attitude]

[aesthetic bih]

Ugh, I'm sooooo sad. That album is never seeing the light of day.

She could have two album by now, a full pop debut and a second RNB leaked album. Yet, she is just releasing generic songs as singles. She can’t write hits and clearly no one is trying to write it for her too. This is so sad as I was rooting for her two years ago.

She had Victoria monèt & Tayla parx who helped Ariana put together thank u next, Boots who produced for Beyoncé’s lemonade and is very hard to get, & Big Freedia the bounce artist on Drake’s nice for what. And countless others. We counted around 72 that were working on her “debut” back in like 2019/20

 

No idea where those songs went or what she’s doing now 

[I Am Music]

We shouldn’t be celebrating this but then again it’s ATRL.  I will agree with though that her window of opportunity is gone and something should have been capitalized after Motivation. Maybe not an album but an EP to get more buzz that could have at least helped with the wait.

I am surprised it's charting at all... It's an album track and her last song was eons ago. I really do believe people were interested in what she had to give but they moved on... I mean when was that song that sounded like Check On It came out... She was on MTV and still no album came.

You’d think after the hell that Tinashe was put through at RCA she’d look the other way in terms of finding a label. I guess some acts think it’ll never happen to them and yet again here we are. 

[UnusualBoy]

Yeah, this is bad.

[CandleGuy]

She truly missed her chance.

 

Even Camila, who has managed to click with the GP, has past her peak at this point after a few #1s. Normani never really made it, what chance does she have now? 

[infrared]

It’s only FAIR given the approach

St. Patrick’s Day impact  It will rise after the Holiday season

This shouldn't be a single anyways, just a promo song. The snippet since January was giving album track.

 

She needs to release another good hit single for the summer or I think the album she's scheduled to release in the summer will either bomb or never come out.

 

That said I didnt even expect this debut on Spotify cuz it was underperforming on Apple Music so

Baring ALL on tik tok for this?! @FAN @usedtothis
 

Honestly for a solo track not on TTH this is pretty good. She’s not a huge name and the song is good so I’m sure it’ll rise.

[LanaXtinaFan]

These fifth harmony girls trying so hard but just can’t make it lol
