EDIT: I have 0 clue who in her circle staged it. She could have had involvement or someone else in the mix could have done it. Who knows ? Even more interesting when you factor in the fact that the CEO and COO of her label were at the Fair release party where Candy Paint (and maybe other unreleased songs meant for the eventual album) were played.

Also… when has she ever named a song like she did in that IG Live before announcing it. She’s pushed for this one. She’s also had Starrah and Tommy Brown come forward lol.

The way they came forward and claimed the song all because of a…dark car ig story snippet Normani posted? Like that’s all it took? Y’all were a bit too thirsty or someone asked y’all to step to the mic and claim the track. edit: @nooniebao exactly. It’s all so weird. I definitely feel like we don’t have Candy Paint due to label politics and marketing strategy etc. I’m not getting the “Normani probably delayed this” vibe like usual.

Says she’s in a “slave contract” with RCA and how they made her work even on Christmas. The GP will eat it up and start stanning. They just wanted confirmation all these years that her deal (or team) is bad so they can “save her”. People just wanna feel apart of something big.

Do you think that other song will be on the album since they're going with CP for the single? Yeah, the song I'm talking about should be right next to W4U. I hope it's not! If so, a bonus track.

tachiwaka Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 So it’s interesting that we’ve heard with Wild Side and Fair that she fought to have those released over an uptempo that her label preferred. I assumed Candy Paint was that uptempo, but now it sounds like she’s pushing this the same way she pushed the others, which is concerning because the label treated the other two releases a certain way, and she might be setting herself up to carry this release on her own again…and WHAT are these other uptempos her labels wants that she keeps sabotaging? Was DUI the one they pushed that she doesn’t like? 29 minutes ago, WheresJay said: As stated before, it does nothing and doesn't fit anywhere next to WS, CP or Fair.

I believe songs like DUI are being pushed by the label and she's fighting against it, thank God. Candy Paint is truly the way to go. And Slow Down is hated by her for a reason... it does nothing. Has no punch, no face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tachiwaka Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 Interesting! It’ll be interesting to see if they shoehorn any of these other songs onto the album, because it seems she’s gotten her way so far. Which is actually pretty admirable for someone in her position. lmao so is this why she posted that WS snippet last year of her on the lawn in lingerie, to convince the label that people would like the song? And then Cardi jumped on and the rest is history. That would absolutely explain posting that snippet and the Fair snippet so far ahead of the releases - she wasn’t teasing, she was testing. I didn’t think Normani was such a strategy queen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It came on shuffle recently in the car & my friend was like “Hold on—” and started bopping to it Then asked who made the song & what the title was, so it’s not just us lol.

shelven Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 I do wonder how long of a leash RCA has given her. If Candy Paint underperforms, I have to imagine they're going to be like "okay you're terrible at this, you don't get to pick your singles anymore" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't really a good sign... at all The fact that the label is still trying to push those type of songs after all this time must mean that the material isn't as strong as she's been suggesting. Considering how Fair was her choice and completely flopped, she might end up being forced to release those as the singles too. I also wouldn't be surprised if this delay is because the label wants to release DUI instead. Her posting that snippet and getting Tommy/Starrah to talk about Candy Paint could be her way of hyping it up so the label has no choice but to release it.
