True sister. I ain't talking about it no more. Sorry @Ethereal

 

 

No matter what the final tracklist ends up being, it's clear that almost all the tracks from the track list confirmed by Boz, except for "Black Woman" and "Nah Nah Nah," were played at the listening party. 

 

 

It's okay @popularmoonlight, but I want to make it very clear I am not trolling  I think we've been through too many delays and setbacks as nation for me to be even pulling that stunt.

@wildsidenormani anything you can say regarding the number of tracks ?

@Ethereal I don't think you're trolling but as some insiders have said that since she hasn't fully submitted to all DSPS, things may change or that version isn't the full version. That's all.

Yes, this is a real possibility, and honestly, it wouldn't surprise me at all. Considering this appears to be a digital-only release with no physical copies printed and ready to go.

So I am listening to Insomnia and it's pretty good. If this is the alleged brandy track then I can only imagine how elevated it is now. I just need her to get rid of black woman and replace it with rocket expeditiously and then my annoyance will dwindle by 2%. 

I don't like long albums so I'm cool with 11 tracks but knowing that near half of it already leaked is disappointing. And people blaiming us for listening to it knowing we waited 6yo and Normani was radio silence is a lil bit hypocrite… 

We want something new we waited 6yo ! 

I hope there's a track she's showing off range …insomnia seems to be the only slow song/balled  on the album.. well tantrums could be slow/balled I don't think she played it at the party 

I hope one day Normani will have a feature with The Weeknd 😍

The lack of love for Ocean Club amongst the Nation is troubling — of all of the leaks that's the one I listen to the most

I don't think it's hypocritical at all. Yes, we've waited six years for the album, but that doesn't give people the right to listen to leaks that may or may not end up being on the album. That's something people have to take up with themselves.

Did anyone else enjoy watching clips of the listening party?
I only seen clips here and there.

But again - wow, the aesthetics. Mani coming in a fancy car. Her red dress. The smoky background. Parking structure location. It is like a movie scene!! I don't follow a lot of artists, so maybe listening parties like this aren't mind blowing, but she really is that cool edgy person and the listening party did look exciting.

The rocket photo op looked nice too.

 

I think my only gripe is still and nah nah nah (potentially) being there. it was made pretty clear on that live that she didn't care for those two and she's already voiced her disdain in putting out records she doesn't whole heartedly believe in. not saying she couldn't have changed her mind, but I just don't want two spots to be taken up by something she would consider to be filler as opposed to tracks she thinks are actually worth our while.

Absolutely. It definitely got me hyped for a moment. I generally don't know what listening parties are like but if this is anything to go by, I see why fans are hyped to attend. It was executed well, especially the aesthetics. It definitely gave the vibe of what the album will be like: dark, moody, sultry, sensual. Thematically, I'll give her and the team an A. Very cohesive.

Lmfao this took me out with the gif and everything I can't. Our thirst is REAL

Okay so all the secrets are out, everyone's arguing. @WheresJay you can come back and give your thoughts. 

tbh i'd be very happy if the last feature was with billie (it would help a lot with the first day streams)

Now where is this Billie information coming from?

Exactly. I do not like the idea of her being persuaded by Tommy and Lydia to include them on the album. This is HER album. Of course like you said she could've changed her mind but it will still cross my mind if she truly loves these songs. Personally, I think Still is an ok song but I do not like Nah Nah Nah at all, sorry. It does not seem up to Normani's standards in my opinion. 

I think the last feature is Meg.
