Watch: Normani Teases Summer 2022 Drop For Debut Solo Album

Published: Tuesday 30th Nov 2021 by Rashad

Beaming from ear to ear as she accepted her first Soul Train Award at the 2021 ceremony (as we reported here), Normani delivered an impassioned speech that saw her not only thank her idols and contemporaries but also her legion of fans (affectionately called #NormaniNation) with promises her long-awaited debut album would be coming ‘soon.’

Backstage, our friends at ‘ET’ pressed the ‘Motivation’ diva for more details about the projected release date of the project.

Hop inside to see what she said:

Amid reflecting on her Soul Train Award win for Best Dance Video for her song ‘Wild Side,’ ‘Mani was quizzed about the arrival of her highly anticipated debut solo album.

“I wanna tell you that summer is going to be lit,” the singer said about the LP (as seen above). “We’re doing everything! I’m ready to perform, I miss performing.”

Although she did not specify a date, the specified timeframe will certainly be enough to whet the appetites of her patient fans – many of whom are gearing up for the soon-to-be-released ‘Wild Side’ follow-up single.

    Haterz and those from a broken home in 5,4,3,2,1!

    Let the girl live. You will never see .000000000000000001 of her fame (or income 💰💰💰). Y’all worryin’ bout her business because you don’t got none of your own 🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️

    • Clarks0o00ñ November 30, 2021

      Shut up idi0t.

      This is a music blog.
      People have the right to share their opinions.

      Normani stans always playing victim.

  2. yup! November 30, 2021

    Personally not a hater. I was really interested in what Normani had to offer back when I saw Love Lies… felt organic at the time. When you’re not a true artist, then you have to rely on being a manufactured act. That can really work for some like Cardi Trash or really fail for others. She lacks a certain authenticity to her music so it lacks replay value. The push is there but I don’t see music being her future after this obligation is completed. Beautiful woman though. BTW, this can be said for majority out now.

    • Clarks0o00ñ November 30, 2021

      Love lies was a good song , all thanks to Khalid.
      Love lies is Khalid’s sound

      Same with dancing with a stranger. This was a bop all thanks to sam Smith.

      Normani doesnt understand music.
      Shes whack.
      She’s not believable as a singer.

      Even bjork, imogen heap, fiona apple, dont taken 5 years to make 1 album.
      😂😂💀

      • yup! November 30, 2021

        To be honest, not a fan of Khalid. Can’t sing. But Norman’s tone worked really well over that track along side his rough vocal. That one worked. I did not like Sam smiths song either.

      • yup! November 30, 2021

        Normani’s*

      • Clarks0o00ñ November 30, 2021

        “But Norman’s tone worked really well over that track ”

        What tone?
        U normani stans love talking about “normani tone” but I am yet to hear that “tine” on any of her songs.

        Normani has a generic voice that doesn’t stand out.
        Love lies is a good song thanks to Khalid who has a unique voice and sound.

      • Gag On That November 30, 2021

        If Normani is so basic, why do you get so upset and bring her up on posts that aren’t about her? Why do you call her names and make fun of her mother having cancer? Someone who’s a flop and basic has you this obsessed? It’s f****** crazy I wish we could see who you are you probably are ugly and have terrible loving situation

      • yup! November 30, 2021

        You’re way more of a stan than I am. You literally know her every move (I don’t) her every song (I don’t) her every charting position (I don’t and don’t care) and you’re very creepy with it too lmao! That said, yes TONE! EVERY SINGER has one. Good bad or indifferent like that Camella Cowbella chick you rant and rave about, which I am very indifferent on. Her tone worked on THAT song that I mentioned TO MEEeee lol.

  3. truthteller November 30, 2021

    Summer 2022? It’s not going to happen then. no artist at her level takes that long to release their debut album. There will be delays and excuses and then Normani will be quietly dropped. We will then get the excuse that she wanted to be an independent artist and ask her “legion” of fans to fund her record.

    • Clarks0o00ñ November 30, 2021

      Oh, so ur eyes have finally opened
      😂😂
      Glad people have started seeing it.

  4. Lele November 30, 2021

    When your an ugly racist irrelevant flop bítch with no talent you get overshadowed by Normani 🤣🤣🤣

    • Clarks0o00ñ November 30, 2021

      Using Camila to deflect?
      😂😂

      Camila has 2 platinum albums. Both albums are Grammy nominated.

      She gearing up to release her 3rd.

      Normani has only 1 solo single that tanked after all the hype.
      😂😂😂

  5. Clarks0o00ñ November 30, 2021

    SUMMER? 😂

    And shes proud of saying this?
    😂😂
    What a dumbàss.

    The black community hyped the wrong girl up.
    Yall need to catch an L for this.

    Imagine all this hype, A list opportunities, industry support, big music videos, A list collaborations, etc imagine if yall gave half of these opportunities to another black chic, that chic would have blown up long time ago.

    • Gag On That November 30, 2021

      Hundreds of comments saying the same ol s***. Your life just be miserable you’re obsessed with 2 people who don’t know you exist lmao. And to top it off you’re upset with one of them! You want to be Normani so bad

  6. Lele November 30, 2021

    Look at this Normani stalker 🤣🤣she truly runs your mind all hours of the day huh?

    🤣🤣🤣

    Normani could buy you and sell your bum a** & you’re over here crying

    🤣🤣🤣

  7. Clarks0o00ñ November 30, 2021

    😂😂
    I literally told yall this shìt since 2019.

    Assuming this girl had talent, her delaying her album would be justifiable, but she cant sing for shìt. ZERO musical talent.

    She dont have an ear for a hit.
    Her music is trash.

    I have watched the video for wild side so many times but I still dont know what that song sounds like.
    I dont even remember the lyrics or what the song is about.

    She lacks charisma and personality.

  8. Clarks0o00ñ November 30, 2021

    She doesn’t have any genuine fans.

    People are supporting her because they hate Camila cabello and because they want to see a dark skin chic win.

    Nobody genuinely likes this broad.
    Nobody genuinely likes her music.

    Have u ever seen anybody say, “I’m going home to listen to some normani ”
    😂😂

  9. Clarks0o00ñ November 30, 2021

    ““We’re doing everything! I’m ready to perform, I miss performing.”

    😂😂😂
    Perform what exactly? U dont even know how to sing live.
    Ur discography is not even up to 15 minutes long.
    .

    And her delusional Twitter fans love blaming everybody when she tanks.

    Its colourism that’s why normani’s career hasnt taken of
    It’s the manager’s fault
    Its beyonce sabotaging normani behind the scenes
    Its Camila’s sabotaging normani behind the scenes
    Its chloe bailey faults

    😂😂😂.

    • Shayla Queen™ 👑 November 30, 2021

      Everyone else’s fault BUT the lazy, entitled, self-pitying “victim” biitch’s

      • Gag On That November 30, 2021

        Clarkson look how many comets you leave everyday about Normani. disgusting sick person.

        Stfu dumb ass. You’re a loser who lives in a part of Britain nobody gives a f*** about worryy about that “Shayla”

        😂😂

        U guys are running out of excuses
        Ur trying to deflect but it’s not working.

        Everybody eyes are finally opening when it comes to fl0pmani.

        She is a huge scam.
        No amount of lies, conspiracy theories, blame game, victimhood and pity can save her.

        U need to hold this L.
        😂

      • Paulo November 30, 2021

        You’re the one deflecting from your own admission of craziness and mediocrity 🤣 bye Clownkson go watch Wild Side some more, we know it’s better than anything Ca’mare’lla Cabello ever put out

      • Clarks0o00ñ November 30, 2021

        Deflecting?

    • Clarks0o00ñ November 30, 2021

        What did normani achieve this year?
        Number 1 on urban radio
        Soul train award for Best dance performance
        😂😂💀

        Normani career is built on sympathy, lies, conspiracy theories and Camila cabello hate.

  12. Your Name November 30, 2021

    Disappointing. Normani has been a solo artist for how long now???? She only has a handful of songs. She coulda dropped an EP with 4 or 5 songs like everyone else is doing. Monica’s album will drop before hers lol….

  13. Clarks0o00ñ November 30, 2021

    How many lead singles does she have right now?
    😂😂

    They have tried and tried on several occasions to make this dull boring looking broad happen buts it’s been failure each time.

    How can u work with
    Max Martin
    Ariana
    Nicki
    Megan
    Calvin Harris
    Cardi

    And still ur career hasnt taken of
    People dont even know u or recognize u
    Ur still a Twitter celebrity.

    Give another dark skin chic these A list collaborations and watch as her career would have exploded long time ago

  14. Clarks0o00ñ November 30, 2021

    They are supporting this talentless girl just to spite Camila.

    But what is Camila’s business with normani?

    What does Camila have to lose or gain with normani succeeding or flopping? Absolutely nothing

    Camila has her own career.
    She has done her thing
    2 number one songs
    2 platinum albums (both albums Grammy nominated)
    Havana is diamond
    Senorita will soon be diamond also
    Senorita 2 billion streams. First male female duet to achieve this
    Havana first song by a female artist to hit 1 billion on spotify
    3 Grammy nominations.
    17 billboard hot 100 entries

    Normani is not gonna achieve half of these

    • Nicky November 30, 2021

      😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

      Mani won an Award and you are writing dissertations.

      You wrote 15 posts under one Normani topic

      Go take your meds , seek psych help, and stream Camonkeys flop single to alleviate her heartbreak 😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

      Congrats to Mani !!!

      • Clarks0o00ñ November 30, 2021

        “Mani won an Award ”

        For best dance performance
        It’s not even for singing but for dancing. 😂💀

        And it’s not solo
        Normani has never won a solo award ever in her career.
        😂😂😂😂

        “Go take your meds , seek psych help,”

        Somebody is projecting their mental illness on a stranger they met on the internet.
        😂😂
        U are unwell, but u will be alright.
        I will pray for u.

  16. J November 30, 2021

    Get the bag Normani. 😈💰

    • baby monster November 30, 2021

      what bag???
      sis doesn’t write, produce, tour, or release music consistently…
      no big endorsements. that’s unless you count savage fenty although ambassadors do it for free or pennies. she works with all these big time producers allegedly. someone’s gotta see a return on their investment…

  17. Marshamarshamarsha November 30, 2021

    CORRECT ME IF IM WRONG!!!

    Didn’t she say the same after WILDSIDE dropped???? Cultural reset! She has no clue!!!!!!

    At some point she has to take some accountability. It’s not always the label or management.

    There are plenty of indie artists working their asses off WITHOUT a big machine….

    Normani gives off she wants the fame, but doesn’t wanna work for it…

    She should have an EP or SOMETHINGGG by now to hold her fans over. Dropping solo music since 2018 but not having an album or EP is a big no no in 2021 almost 2022.

    Back to the drawing board you go Ms. Normani 🎯

  18. True Tea November 30, 2021

    Meanwhile C U Milla’s glory days are already behind her. The fans are starving horribly & their queen has no throne. Awww!!!! 🤭

    I would say I feel bad BUT I simply can’t sympathize with peasants who’s mission consist of tearing down another woman because their FAV is a basic bih who taps out prematurely.

  19. Keeping it real November 30, 2021

    Didn’t she say it’s coming it was coming by the end of 2021?? Now it’s coming in summer 2022. like so many artists have released 2 new albums since she went solo look at summer walker, tinashe etc. the fact is nobody checking for normani’s music. Reason why wild side flopped. Watch Rihanna or Beyoncé drop summer 22 then she will push it to 2023

  20. Bubbleyum November 30, 2021

    This album aint ever coming lol
