wildsidenormani Posted June 3 Posted June 3 youtube payola has finished; it's stuck at 1.4M views. we really can't have a single nice thing this era... 2
lipes Posted June 3 Posted June 3 I love this and I'm sure it will find home in the top5 of my Spotify Wrapped, so I'm satisfied. can't say the same about 1:59. it's a shame it's not performing well but the rollout was TERRIBLE in every sense. I'm not optimistic about the album success unless something really connects with the audience in a way that she/her team can't screw up even if they want to. 1
toast Posted June 3 Posted June 3 Waiting patiently for the visuals Do we think there's a chance for a BET Awards performance?

I say this as a stan, I doubt there will be any success considering how she has been going. She has done nothing for the music she's releasing. Literally nothing. It's a deserved flop at this point 8

concubine Posted June 4 Posted June 4 I need her to revisit the Wild Side promo where she was painting that artwork with her entire bootyhole out, at the time I honestly thought that they were filming/teasing the Candy Paint visuals here and that we would be getting with this release.. such a missed opportunity, it went perfectly with the theme. (I'm still trying to figure out wtf the term 'Candy Paint' even means? but this will do for now) Quote Even though I know people were dragging her they were at least talking about her. She really needs to sex up her image again or do something really shocking like this again to breathe new life into the rollout for this song, because this ain't it, as everyone in here already said 5

aesthetic bih Posted June 4 Posted June 4 This one is much much better than 1:59 We need the visuals for the era though! Why is she serving Beyonce with the videos?

I think it will do around 5k to 20k in the first week. That's not bad, especially since she seems keen to release this project and move on. However, this nonchalant approach of hers is really confusing because, in a recent interview, she emphasised being a visual artist who loves performing on stage. So, where are the visuals, Normani? Where are the performances? The only explanation that makes sense is that they're planning to release everything during realase week and then go all out with promotions, including late-night shows and interviews.
concubine Posted June 4 Posted June 4 (edited) is she over if this flops? i can't see another label signing her if the album doesn't perform well Edited June 4 by concubine 2

Imagine how negative the ROI has been for holding on to her for all these years if this flops. There have been plenty of notable artists who have had entire careers in the time since Motivation or even since Wild Side who have probably been dropped for less. Edited June 4 by Exodus 2 1

Even a certain artist has released two albums and an EP for Evangelion since Normani began this album campaign with Motivation in 2019, it's bad for her I fear. 1

Space&Time Posted June 4 Posted June 4 This whole situation is sad. Candy Pant really sounds a leftover in a demo state. To make matters worse all the wait and no hype at all. It's obvious…. The Writings On The Wall. 🥲 1

They thought they were doing with Candy Paint, but it's just not it. 1:59 is so much better if only in the sense it accomplishes what it sets out to do. As a baby making, r and B hit, it succeeds. I actually believe with the right payola/promotion it could be as big as Wild Side. Candy Paint ain't it. It's gonna take a miracle. She could start with a MV.

mxoonlight Posted June 4 Posted June 4 Can they buy this from this person? Obsessed Even the OG with more bass and some horns would eat so bad! 1

There have been plenty of notable artists who have had entire careers in the time since Motivation or even since Wild Side who have probably been dropped for less. "ROI" is crazy when she self-funded the WS MV and it's clear whatever semblance of an operation is left is coming from her end. She really hasn't gotten a big push in many years. 2
