Go take all this repressed anger out in the Celebria thread where people are actually saying problematic things instead of… just discussing her career Like maybe that viral Tyler The Creator tweet from a few years ago was right because some of you really just need to close your eyes Be direct and get a life. Focus on your on career how about that. Idk who y'all think y'all are with these assessments about her career. Y'all are not qualified to do so. If the things that were said to her were said to you , I promise y'all wouldn't be saying this. Like i said , y'all are terrible people and feel the need to be over critical when it comes to her when y'all need to be focusing that energy towards yourselves. Put pressure on yourself, not her.

You're… literally on the same forum as the rest of us. Why are you in this thread if reading discussions about her career makes you so angry? Like I genuinely say this to try to help you because you seem truly heated, but maybe it's better for your own health to not be on this forum and read these discussions. Calling people evil and personally attacking them for wanting to have respectful, level-headed discussions about a pop star's career on a pop music forum isn't productive and is just going to make you more annoyed. Anyways, I don't want this to turn into some long back and forth, so I'll end things there. Wishing you well and hoping you can maybe re-focus this energy on the people who are actually saying awful things about her outside of this thread instead of attacking her own fans for being interested in her career 3

Most of y'all are nasty people and I'm not going to be respectful nor levelheaded especially since y'all do not practice that approach when it comes to normani. Y'all deserve that but she doesn't? Be serious. To lie and say y'all are respectful and thoughtful would be insane because these past couple of pages and even prior to that, shows how cruel most of you are. It's ok for y'all to get "heated" and speak down on her when y'all don't get y'alls way, but when the energy is reciprocated it's an issue. Y'all can dish it but can't take it. It's so flaw. Y'all need to refocus that nasty energy toward yourselves so you wouldn't be so distraught over someone else's career. Good day
AFullMoonlight Posted July 2 Posted July 2 Beyoncé posting Teyana and Victoria just made me sick knowing that could've been fave. I'm sad all over again. Literally couldn't watch the show after the news broke out. 2

Crank_It_Up Posted July 3 Posted July 3 What has me optimistic is that BET awards were booked and ready for Normani. This shows that Lydia had a plan for her to come back into the scene somehow. They probably need a bit time to curate things around the next few weeks/months differently due to the injury, but I honestly feel better about the "era" than I initially did during the release week tbh. 5
AFullMoonlight Posted July 3 Posted July 3 Anybody else thinks the Little Secrets Demo is better than the official version?

I haven't heard the full demo (only a clip on Twitter) but it sounds way emptier to me. They definitely elevated it for the final version. Still one of my faves on the album

Still one of my faves on the album I love the reverb echo effect in songs so that's probably why I'm feeling the demo a bit better, but Little Secrets is one of her best songs period. 3

NormaniQueen Posted July 3 Posted July 3 @troubledparadise any update on the release of the candy paint mv?
MatiRod Posted July 3 Posted July 3 The album is truly excellent, already one of my most played of the year and as a fan great music is the #1 thing you can ask for. I'm so proud of her for getting it out there finally. But I will admit I'm completely bewildered as to why they shot an expensive-looking teaser clip for the album, but no music videos have been released. That rocket and 20 gallons of silver paint didn't cost zero dollars. They had good cameras. Why was it not turned into a video shoot? And not even a random club performance (remember when Gaga used to do those during Born This Way?). Grassroots marketing is working in 2024, look at Charli XCX's campaign. If Normani had done a couple surprise gay club performances in LA and NY for "Candy Paint" that gays would excitedly share and record on TikTok, it could've done something, maybe. But as Madonna once sang, nothing equals nothing. 4
