IvysPartition Posted May 16, 2022 Posted May 16, 2022 On a serious note, I was expecting something today. Maybe an announcement or some cryptic tweet or move. Giving her until 9PM EST. After that I’m officially a casual fan watching from the outside.
EnoughSaid Posted May 16, 2022 Posted May 16, 2022 I don’t believe anything is coming this month, she likes to tease and we are already the 16th. Unless their plan is to start teasing next week which I would prefer actually. I just doubt they have the single and visual ready for release cause we’ve heard so little

We’ve known that she officially finished the album, there were even a listening with RCA execs… We just don’t know what the hold up is now. I can’t believe she didn’t shoot the video yet
brraap Posted May 17, 2022 Posted May 17, 2022 I hate this song. She better not put it on the "album"
tachiwaka Posted May 17, 2022 Posted May 17, 2022 It’s so disheartening to see so many other artists releasing, announcing, TEASING. And we’re just waiting

Hoping for something soon. Wait ok not to be delusional but Does this mean there's a (infinitesimal small) chance it could still come at the original time / not be delayed The way I'm exhausting myself with these mental gymnastics just to cling to some semblance of hope

I’m expecting her to tease a week before or days before like Motivation this time. It’s going to be uptempo so I think theyre putting all their eggs in one basket for this one. Unless Fair was a big indicator of the album sound and now they’re looking for new songs since it flopped big time.

I mean, to be fair, all of her peers flopped with their recent releases (Giveon, Chloe, etc). I think they’re waiting for the right time because something was obviously in the air.

We haven’t had any huge hits at all! 2022 is turning out way worse musically than 2021 and I thought we had hit an all time low. Last years big hits were actual moments we haven’t a had a big moment in music this year whatsoever. I think there’s going to be a big shift coming soon from someone maybe Rihanna? that will change the music industry ala Beyoncé ST. The music scene is in a drought. Even Adele flopped
Revelations Posted May 17, 2022 Posted May 17, 2022 (edited) this song is so boring. we need high tempo songs from normani! motivation was such a culture reset Edited May 17, 2022 by Revelations

Even Adele flopped This is exactly why I wish she had just hurried up with releasing the next big single earlier this year instead of taking a 2 month detour with Fair. There was basically NO competition for a big impactful single as of 2-3 months ago. Now things are finally starting to heat up with Harry, Jack, Future's new song, possibly something from Bad Bunny's album sticking around, and Lizzo. There was a perfect release window that her team (predictably ) passed by.
Motivation93 Posted May 17, 2022 Posted May 17, 2022 @WheresJay can you at the least confirm that whenever the uptempo drops it’ll still come with the album announcement? We can’t do just another single from her we’re soooo close

This has nothing to do with a Normani thread, but As It Was is not a quick lil single will hit 500M at Spotify next week already. It’s enormous.

popularmoonlight Posted May 17, 2022 Posted May 17, 2022 Streets saying the Calvin collab is dropping on June 24th
Aaliyah Kylie Posted May 17, 2022 Posted May 17, 2022 she at least needs to perform at the bet awards.. AT LEAST
ToraeGilt Posted May 17, 2022 Posted May 17, 2022 I don’t think we’re getting anything this month or else wheresjay would’ve known already. Don’t they have to send the songs weeks in advance to Spotify? She did say the new single was dropping soon but I think the performance of fair changed the trajectory of her releasing. A bummer. Just hoping we get the album by august the latest.
