It looks like that's all we're going to get for a while. Well the so called « r&b pop star diva » that didn't have any song that charted will have a hard time being a superstar if she thinks releasing an album is enough work. She has too many flaws that she doesn't work on and let it get the best of her.

Monday it's RCA sabotaging her, Tuesday it's Brandon spending too much money on irrelevant things, Wednesday it's her getting sued by people she didn't credit on songs, Thursday is a her nail broke, Friday her charger isn't working anymore, Saturday she has a visual album and is waiting for a show that almost ghosted her even when she used to chart, Sunday she doesn't owe us anything. I can't blame her fans because her parents started this conspiracy with their cryptic tweets about the music industry trying to end her. The whole self victimization, self sabotage and fear to step out of her comfort zone is the result of overprotective parenting. She's almost 30 and her mom is still talking for her so her fans act the same way with her. The truth is that Normani has a lot of anxiety and hate going out of her comfort zone. Which is why she's traumatized by the 5H experience and is now surrounded by yes men who will never challenge her to do something she doesn't like. 2 3

It's really sad but I peeped that a long time ago. I thought she would outgrew this phase after going solo but she absolutely has shown no growth… everything is in her head and unless she starts acknowledging her problem and starts working on it nothing will change. 1

Why not do some performance videos to at least give the songs some well deserved shine. Normani isn't used to everything being on her; that time in 5H she coasted through on the other girls. Now it's all her she can't gather the confidence to gracefully fail at some things. She hasn't learned that everything won't go her way but it's how you react to it that proves yourself as a person/artist. I mean Beyoncé's whole album leaked and she still ended up selling out a world tour and made a whole iconic era out of it. I mean can't she book her own late night talk show performances. Tina she was just there and she's an indie artist? I'm not sure what's the problem. Even Miley who had a bad experience with RCA was out and about doing promo. Some of this must be self-inflicted because she ghosted after Motivation talking about she hated the bubblegum pop sound? Wasting time trying to run away from 5H just for that time period to hold some of her most successful moments. The thing is to become your own artist after the disbandment not to live in the group's shadow. In that regard Camila has far surpassed the others which is sad 1 1

The same point can be made about those who continue to stan her obsessively. Both Normani and her team should be subjected to criticism. Whilst her team might not be booking her for any events, she could still be active on social media, promoting her own album. But I'm not surprised, because in the few interviews she's given, she's mentioned disliking several tracks on the album, which isn't a good look. As for promoting her material, she could easily set up a tripod and film a performance video, even if it's just her dancing in a garage or an abandoned warehouse. Instead, there has been nothing but silence from her and her team.

How am I projecting when her twitter account literally confirmed what I am talking about. She literally said she missed out by not capitalizing off of Motivation. Yall keep using the fact that she is not vocal as a way to deflect. Have yall not seen how she's been acting lately. She even said out her mouth she wasn't the hugest fan of most of the album. She's very picky but that's not what I'm referencing it's the fact that she can't over herself and let thing play out naturally. She cut Motivation's promo short and has since haven't been able to get back that hype. She should let the fans choose their favorite and let her have hers. I mean she hates Motivation and only likes a handful of songs from Dopamine and but she was just sitting up her saying that she wants the album to be worth the wait but literally does not like half the songs? Like what? She's not confident about her music and doesn't like feeling like she's not in control. 1
Givemeyourcoat Posted August 9 Posted August 9 (edited) Funny how when I said her bashing the album was bad look some of y'all said it's irrelevant, people don't care about that. Her not liking her album is now an inside joke. Normani has the right to truly not like half of her album (who's fault ? You took 6yo to cook something you don't like?? It's on you anyway), but she is now an actress, she can act like she can love her album from bottom to top. Now she is just waisting people's time and she added the pressure on her herself. Who asked her to say she wanted to have MJ and Beyonce type of success ? Now you sold less than 15k first week and you hiding cause you're scared of critics and you show no confidence in yourself. Then she says it's art before anything else but don't even care about promoting her so called art. I'm so disappointed but again this isn't new, I just though It was gonna change with the release of the album, but no very sad. I don't want to loose hope on her but it looks very bad 💔 Edited August 9 by Givemeyourcoat
justifymythreads Posted August 9 Posted August 9 Y'all hear about Leighanne hinting at a possible collab? I'm not mad at it because Leighanne's music is actually pretty good. My issue is if this comes out with a mv before anything from RCA then I know there is something up. 1

I know she's stated "Take My Time" not being her most favorable track, or something to that effect, but I missed where she started she didn't like SEVERAL songs. Like- D@MN! With RCA putting their foot down on the money for the rollout, I can see her not promoting the album if she doesn't like more than an equal half of the finished product. That wouldn't help her case though, it would more so make her look even more foolish, delusional and unprofessional- not just that she had a strong case against these claims already though. I would hope nothing comes to light point to this being the reasons she flopped harder than any of her contemporaries in the grand scheme of an era, but I wouldn't be surprised. She acted as is she did the world a favor by paying for her own video during "Wild Side" era, only to do nothing but poorly planned performances. Stanning her is harder than honey pack d|ck❗️

Givemeyourcoat Posted August 10 Posted August 10 (edited) 3 hours ago, Sad Beautiful Tragic said: Those statements only works when songs ends up being super successful. Like « omg she's capable of delivering and make the song successful even when she doesn't feel it ». It's a testimony of greatness. Now her bashing an album that took her 6yo to make and it's successful at all, just seems like they picked to songs for her and was forced to release. Plus it seems like unprofessional cause you took many years to perfect your album just for you to drag it? You just waisted people's time and all of this wasn't « worth the wait », a statement she's been saying since 2019. Normani needs media training because all of this is a mess. she needs to stop recycling the same sentences like a robot she appears as boring, she needs to talk about the vibe of the songs how she felt while recording, the meaning of the lyrics ect. I honestly don't care if she wanted to release that album or not. She needs to stop acting like a baby because this is annoying. Also the trauma she developed in 5h is sadly still here which is very sad, I hope she will someday win against it. It's stopping her cause she will never truly have confidence in herself and now it's starting to show in interviews. Her not liking songs or part of the songs, her saying that she was put in the group just for politically correct reasons, her saying complaining about not singing in the group and so on. Lastly, like I said Normani and fans needs to focus on other things than having a slot on big stages or winning a Grammy. Normani had/still has way bigger and more important problems she needed to fix. Which is her relationship with her fanbase, developing a bigger one, going back to performing again but in front of small crowds (cause it's been years and her last experiences with performing weren't enjoyable), and make sure to have at least a hit single. Result, Normani still made no perf on big stages as we speak, she can forget about any grammy win, her relationship with fans that was close to inexistent is in even worth state since most of us are fed up, her fanbase isn't growing at all, she still haven't performed in any stage and non of her songs charted….
