Normani has teamed up with Sam Smith to collaborate on a new song that is due to arrive next Friday (Jan. 11).
The announcement alone whipped up feverish excitement and now the pair crank it up a notch by giving fans a preview of the tune.
Head below for details…
Titled ‘Dancing With A Stranger,’ a brief snippet of the funky jam is featured on a video trumpeting its imminent arrival and encouraging fans to pre-save the song on streaming services:
Speaking on the cut, Smith said in a statement:
“I’m so excited for everyone to hear Dancing With a Stranger, which I wrote on ‘The Thrill Of It All’ tour last year.”
Continuing, he added:
“For me it bottles everything I was feeling whilst juggling my personal life and touring. It is also such a beautiful moment for me as I’m a huge, huge fan of Normani and everything she is. I’m so excited to watch her light shine. I hope everyone enjoys hearing this song as much as I do.”
The collaboration came about after the ‘Waves’ songbird was in the studio next door to Smith and the pair – who have made it clear that they’re big fans of each other in the past – decided to join forces.
We’re hyped for ‘Dancing’ – especially after hearing the snippet. Are you?
I wish he just wrote it for her to sing alone. I don’t want anyone holding her back when she creates the visuals and shut it down.
I’m here for this beat for sure!!???
Normani should get him to wrote for her https://youtu.be/F39YZWndle8
You know the greats before Ms Normani could master different sounds – I ain’t made this sounds different – but she needs to drive home the previous tracks before moving onto a new song with this bore. Like who is checking for Sam Smith in the Urban Pop community ? Chile – NEXT
I feel like she doing too many collabs, If she wants to be known by her own name and not an ex 5th Harmony girl she need to start making music as a solo artist and find her own sound. Too many big names as well. Them Calvin Harris songs aint even charting….what a waste.
True dat but even Nicki did it during her Pink Friday days. Hope things work out well for Normani as well.
Sam Smith is a known Harmonizer and I’m so excited for this collab yay!
