You keep painting the people in this thread to be saints and that shows me how deluded you are. 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

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.

I love how the people in this thread prove how shitty they are. That girl is injured because she had a BAD accident and y'all are still talking about rollouts promotion etc. she could croak and y'all would still say ok "she could've posted about it before she did, where's the promo ??!!" you guys need to stop immersing yourself in the Stan world. It's making you a terrible people. No empathy for a human being. It's bizarre to step away and come back and really see what this looks like to an outsider. That girl is probably depressed and in pain over this injury that affected her body and work and y'all are anxiety ridden and depressed over a career that's not yours. How pathetic. You guys are so gross. Who sits on a forum to talk about someone who sustained an injury being "babied" and then continues to demand her to be on social media where there are accounts with her face on them being lynched harassing her 24/7. Berating her. You guys need to revaluate how wanting her to win is making you all extremely abusive and narcissistic. Just stop stanning her. No reply about her career is going to make me see it from y'all's point of view because it's just inhumane. Go to hell and take this thread with you.

No one is gaslighting y'all. It's just music and it's not that serious at all. Your last sentence is literally my point, enjoy the ALBUM. That's it from me. Not gonna clog this forum with negativity.

Oh I'm gonna go and I'll be stress free unlike y'all lol. Her fans harassing people for copious amounts of info right before she releases her album only for them to receive that info and then continue to ask for answers y'all cannot handle absolutely bothers me. Y'all ask questions knowing y'all cannot handle the answers.It's never gonna be enough for y'all no matter what and that's the point. The main insider on here left because of the negativity. And ENK is following suit. Y'all beg for an album she put it out but now the music video is a focal point when her DEBUT ALBUM is coming out in a couple of hours. Y'all need to wake up. It's not 2019/2021 anymore. Videos are not pulling in as great numbers unless the song is already viral. The video is also coming just not when y'all want it to and if I've learned anything based on the quality of this album, it's good that she does not move on y'all time but hers so we can receive her work at her best. Does she excel visually? Absolutely, however she also excels sonically as proven on this album which is the main thing. Focus on the main thing. Y'all' can't digest content at a decent pace and it's off putting. Goodbye.

Yeah I'm officially out lol. Some of y'all are delusional to think that a music video will magically increase streams significantly. Times have changed. Sometimes some of you go out of your way to be miserable. The album is getting amazing reviews and it's like y'all have to make yourselves unhappy and self sabotage by demanding things we don't have (yet). Y'all talk about Normani self sabotaging but y'all do the exact same thing. It's impossible to enjoy things with the type of fans she has . Anyways album is 10/10 as stated before. sayonara.

I get what i want gimme gimme

Thank you. Like they just simply aren't. lol it's not even up for debate. No other r&b girls album sounds like dopamine. We cannot say the same for the pop girls though.

There were times where i was listening to the album and I had to pause because i was beyond proud and shocked. I always believed in her, but after so much hearsay about what was on the album and what's not , i really was prepared to not like at least half of it. One thing about this entire process i learned is to just wait. It's hard but my god she made it worth it for me. She has truly carved out her own lane. The elements of pop and r&b are there but none of it sounds like anyone else to me. It sounds like Normani because it is Normani. Proud is really an understatement. Irrevocably grateful that she took her time. I always Stan the music before anything and with this project i have a lot more great quality to look forward to in the future. Genuinely 10/10. I have so much more flowers to give her but I'm truly speechless lol.

There's an artist set to release an album with over 50 mil followers and their latest post only has 300,000 likes. No artist unless they are showing ass or they're white is pulling crazy instagram numbers. Like wheresjay said there are artist with ten times more likes that do not sell. Social media is extremely fickle. I wouldn't bet on it.

That was my favorite part too! You described the beginning of it perfectly. I cannot wait to hear it with headphones in and in full

Y'all's need for criticism blinds y'all from recognizing when some people are just being cruel. You need to be telling that person to relax with the way they have been erratically carrying on. None of this is ever that serious to degrade strangers. It's just music and the same talking points are constantly repeated just in different fonts. If people can be crass and extremely vile toward normani and the people on here, me saying that that type of carrying on is annoying shouldn't be problematic.

You keep coming in here whenever she teases something to be negative. Lmaoo it's like u want everyone to agree w your negative takes. You also keep saying the same things in each post. It's boring and you're taking up space. No one here cares that you don't see it for her. Stop paying attention.

I see why her some of her fans and even wheresjay are choosing to be offline. Her fans have always been insanely demanding but the type of rabid behavior being displayed only 3 days before the album comes out is such a turnoff. It's unfortunate her normal fans have to be subject to it.

Happy we are a week away because all of this gets confusing and messy. Ppl are saying ten songs in total but then saying 4 interludes….. that's still 14 tracks. If those other songs are actually on the album then i wonder which song Meg is featured on. I'm a bit confused on the reception of the album from the media outlets that got to listen to it because they are giving great reviews but if certain songs are on the album i question their taste lol. She had to completely rework some songs because those 2 snippets on live and even black woman were not of the quality ppl were saying the songs on the album are. I couldn't care less about leaked songs being present as long as they are amazing . I just hope i actually like the music since that's the most important thing to me. I will say her team did so well last night with the listening party. The aesthetics and the overall vibe was perfect. 10/10.
