Chopping it up with Zane Lowe, the 25-year-old opened up about the real-life heartbreak behind the lyrics of ‘Fair,’ her long-awaited album debut, growing up in the spotlight, conquering perfectionism, and much more.

    Fair isn’t a good single choice. It’s very one note

  2. Blow March 19, 2022

    Gurl, the only way you can minimize your embarrassment is to dig a hole and hide. Lol

  3. marilyn monh-O-E ® 👠(#1 DIVA) March 19, 2022

    She’s so damn boring…. Heartbreaking my ass. Bet she’s still dating that back up dancer. 💅🏾 RCA just releasing her Compilation album from love lies to fair and full filled her ONE and only record deal already

  4. Clarks0o00ñ March 19, 2022

    Fair didn’t even debut on the global spotify 200
    😂😂💀💀💀

    Rosalia and charli xcx outdebuting this girl on spotify. Can u imagine

  5. Clarks0o00ñ March 19, 2022

    Everybody hates her and they want to see her fail so bad its because of her delusional stans on Twitter (all 50 of them) , always attacking other pop girls unprovoked

    Normani stans have the nerve and audacity to come for legends like adele, Rihanna, nicki, bey, Taylor swift, girls with albums, grammy nominations, bodies of work, accolades, sales etc

    And this is why everyone is rooting for her to fail.

    Also the hype doesn’t match the talent. She has be upcoming since 2018.

    • Tori March 19, 2022

      Literally NO ONE is wishing for Normani to fail except your multiple personalities on here. LITERALLY NO ONE 🤣🤣🤣❗🤦🏾‍♂️

      • Clarks0o00ñ March 19, 2022

        Gurl, go to Twitter and see
        😂😂
        Even Sara berellies stans are dragging normani
        😂

    • truthteller March 19, 2022

      Normani fans are probably the most deluded of any fanbase. The fact that they are comparing her to the likes of Beyonce and Rihanna is just laughable. She has done absolutely nothing to deserve those comparisons.

  6. marilyn monh-O-E ® 👠(#1 DIVA) March 19, 2022

    What is the album title? None! where’s the album cover? None! What’s is the track listing? None! What musical direction is this album going to? Nowhere! Seems like RCA has no plan to releasing her debut album. 💅🏾

  7. Clarks0o00ñ March 19, 2022

    So dull, no personality, no charisma, no It factor.
    😩😩😩😩

    She popular on Twitter. Everybody hyping her on Twitter but when its time to buy and stream its crickets.

    Her delusional stans keep bragging about wild side going platinum, they dont know its because of cardi b and the cardi b machine that helped her.

  8. Clarks0o00ñ March 19, 2022

    RCA records must be regretting signing this girl.
    They thought they were singing beyonce, they didnt know they were signing latavia
    😂😂😂

    All that Twitter hype and for what?
    How many viral tweets praising this girl.
    These tweets literally have 400k likes, 500k likes, 600k likes and for what?
    Smh

    Anyway
    Don’t go yet- 250 million streams
    😍😍

  9. UHoesFunny March 19, 2022

    🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

    normani is winning.
    cowbello is cursed.

    we love to see it 🥰

    fair music video on the way.
    outstanding live performances.
    now radio shows ✨

    meanwhile camicky showed her tiddies to toddlers 😂😂😂

    • Clarks0o00ñ March 19, 2022

      “normani is winning.”

      Fair didnt debut on the global spotify 200
      😂😂

      After showing her unwashed ànùs on tiktok and for what.
      😂😂

      The way the black community has moved on from her. Lol
      Everybody hates normani right now and its because of people like u, her delusional stans

    • SoNotSorry March 19, 2022

      And still Camila is the only one that stand next to legends like Nelly Furtado and Madonna when it comes to longevity charts for pop singles. What cursed do you talk about? She’s still winning, Normani can’t even come close to that so who’s cursed after so long and still no first album?

    • truthteller March 19, 2022

      Outstanding live performances? You mean outstanding lip syncing. Her microphone is never switched on.

      • Clarks0o00ñ March 19, 2022

        Not a normani stan accusing Camila of lip syncing
        😂😂

        The last time normani’s mic was ON was when she was in 5th harmony, 5 years ago. Lol

      • truthteller March 19, 2022

        I was talking about Normani lip syncing and not Camila. Please don’t label me as a fan of that trash.

      • Clarks0o00ñ March 19, 2022

        Oh sorry my bad
        😔
        Apologies

  10. Clarks0o00ñ March 19, 2022

    They are eating her up on Twitter right now.
    😂😂
    That’s the problem with Twitter, one minute they love u, the next minute they turn on u and start hating on u
    😂😂

  11. Nicky March 19, 2022

    She’s so beautiful with an amazing body and butter vocals. That Camicky rat can’t relate

    Mani top 5 on ITunes.
    Doing well on Apple Music.
    No discounts. No music video. No playlisting payola
    A ballad did that

    Remember Camicky didn’t even reach the top 1000 on Apple Music with that flop Dont Go Yet 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. Never reached top 50 on Billboare 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

    • Clarks0o00ñ March 19, 2022

      Bam bam released 2 weeks ago about to outstream wild side released 8 months ago
      😂

      Bam bam- 32 million streams. Released 14 days ago

      Wild side- 90 million streams. Released almost 1 year ago

      😂😂😂😍😍😍
      Dont go yet- 250 million streams

    • SoNotSorry March 19, 2022

      In the US, “Never Be the Same” peaked at number 6 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was certified triple platinum. It charted in the top 10 in a number of other countries including Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, Portugal and the UK. Certifications: 3× Platinum in Australia, 3× Platinum in Brazil, 4× Platinum in Canada, 2× Platinum in Mexico, 4× Platinum in the USA, 1 time in New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Switzerland and United Kingdom.

      It’s a SOLO song, and nit the only one so tell me more about Normani sales and chart position without featuring please?

  12. Clarks0o00ñ March 19, 2022

    She was never meant to be a star.
    She sucks
    Mediocre voice
    Mediocre personality
    Mediocre songs
    Mediocre face that doesnt stand out in the crowd

    If she was smart, she would quickly get pregnant for a rapper and become a baby mama and enjoy monthly child support cause this music thing isnt for her.

    I see normani being a reality star, doing celebrity big brother, dancing with the stars, the mask singer, strictly come dancing etc

    • truthteller March 19, 2022

      I can picture Normani on some BET reality show in the not so distant future. She will be complaining about how she could have been the next Beyonce or Rihanna if it wasn’t for X and Y.

  13. Pat March 19, 2022

    Wild side is still in heavy rotation so this was a good time to show another side of artistry n hit us w a summer bop a lil later

  14. Clarks0o00ñ March 19, 2022

    She looked tired and washed up

    After almost 6 years ur career hasnt taken of. Embarrassing and sad

    Meanwhile, canola about to release her 3rd album.
    😂😂😂😂
    Dont we love to see it.

    • Tori March 19, 2022

      Did you call YOUR fav ‘Canola! Have you took your asenapine today?

      • Clarks0o00ñ March 19, 2022

    • SoNotSorry March 19, 2022

      Call me back when Normani will secure a top 10 in billboard as a solo act like Camila did with “Never Be the Same”.

      • UHoesFunny March 19, 2022

        here you are under Normani’s post proving yourself to us lmaooo 🤣🤣🤣🤣

      • SoNotSorry March 20, 2022

        Said the one showing Normani sales and certifications about Wild Side all the time with a shade toward Camila 😂 you’re the biggest clown here Dolly

      • UHoesFunny March 20, 2022

        you’re an idiot. it’s normani’s post, i can show love to her. you’re racist and a hater, so that makes you upset lol. so you have to prove yourself to us. thank you, but cowbello STILL is not worth to sit w the MAIN GALS. NEXT

      • SoNotSorry March 20, 2022

        So why are you always talking about Normani on Camila’s post dumbo? Imma have to use some receips I guess? You get what you give darling, stay mad cause you are the one that needs to defend your favorite by dragging Camila down all the time, you are a toxic person so i’m glad that you taste your own medecine 😂

      • UHoesFunny March 20, 2022

        🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

  19. marilyn monh-O-E ® 👠(#1 DIVA) March 19, 2022

    F l o p m a n I still can’t get a solo Top 10 hit even she covered the dance m o n k e y song💅🏾🤣😂🤣😂

  20. UHoesFunny March 19, 2022

    nobody even reports about cowbello 😂

    she’s a lost cause, showing her tiddies to toddlers 💀 how pathetic is this btch 🤮

    anything for a low 23.
    not even a top 10 w the white man 💀

    we love the curse of cowbello 🥰

    normani is getting all the shine and recognition. as she should, queen sht!

    • SoNotSorry March 19, 2022

      Call me back when Normani will secure a top 10 in billboard as a solo act like Camila did with “Never Be the Same”.

      • UHoesFunny March 19, 2022

        lmaoooo. stuck in the past 😂

        “what have you done for me lately”

        NOTHING BUT FLOP 💀

        general public sees the racist btch for who she is, a olivia rodrigo reject 😭😭😭

        none of her recent music resonated with audiences.

        camicky fans be like “ but it did in hong kong” 🤣🤣🤣🤣

      • SoNotSorry March 19, 2022

        Remember your quote as it will comes back around for Normani’s next flop 😂 they both released solo singles in their debut, one reached the top 10 while the other didn’t, so what? Having a platinum hit and a top ten with a featuring, they both have it but only one has a top ten as solo, facts, you just can’t drag Camila at this point of Normani’s career which is not yet sure to start now until she doesn’t announce a date for an album, with a title and a tracklist. It’s about time, i just wait for her to surprise me.

      • UHoesFunny March 19, 2022

        not reading that essay 🤣

      • SoNotSorry March 20, 2022

        Not you trying to pull smoke and mirrors to talk sh*t and don’t let anyone shut your mouth but you’re on a bone right now 😁 #loser

  21. Lele March 19, 2022

    CaDonkey will always tank without a male feature. That’s why forbs was dragging her, for being a consistent flop. 🤭😌

    Imagine forbs dragging you for dropping 5 solo flop singles back to back.

    CaDonkey is a joke.
    😂😂

  22. UHoesFunny March 19, 2022

        😂

      • UHoesFunny March 19, 2022

        cowbello featured a white man on a “latin” themed song and that still ranked 🤣🤣🤣 what a dumbass. thirsty

      • SoNotSorry March 20, 2022

        You want to talk about the Normani’s flop despite the featuring like 6lack or Megan Thee Stallion? I don’t even talk about the Calvin Harris collaboration that didn’t even charted, “Checklist” and “Slow Down” flopped faster than flipper jumping out the water 😂

        The joke is on you Dumbo 🐘🤣

      • UHoesFunny March 20, 2022

        lmaoooo sounds like a fan to me 🤣

      • SoNotSorry March 20, 2022

        Quick check on wikipedia honey, no need to be a fan when all it takes is 5min of your time to search and find what you need 😂

      • SoNotSorry March 20, 2022

        “cowbello featured a white man on a “latin” themed song and that still ranked 🤣🤣🤣 what a dumbass. thirsty”

        So, who’s thirsty here? Do you realise how dumb and ridiculous you are in front of everyone? 🤣

      • UHoesFunny March 20, 2022

        🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

        not i got you a invested.

        not you writing thesis statements 🥴

        we love to see you malfunction 🥰

      • SoNotSorry March 20, 2022

        That’s all you found to hope I will may leave your dumb ass? 😂 you’re as invested as many others here, dedicated to spread hate on Camila and praise Normani at the same time ALL THE TIME, dedicated to answer and trying to have the last word but it’s just entertaining to watch you go down and pretend to be up 🤣

      • UHoesFunny March 20, 2022

        she’s a racist, and that’s a fact not hate 😶 anyways where is the fat btch anyways? the industry pays her dust. no interviews, no performances, bam bam already forgotten, and she blew her chances of any talk shows from showing her tiddies to toddlers 💀 HOW PATHETIC

      • SoNotSorry March 20, 2022

        But you said I was racist too because I like this artist so as I said, does that mean that everyone who buy her music is racist? Look how pressed and mad you are 😂 once again, if Normani was talented enough she should have already been at the top from a long time ago, with or without Camila 😉 😘

      • UHoesFunny March 20, 2022

        lmaoooo. struck a nerve, did you call off work today too? 🥲🤣

  23. Fair March 19, 2022

  24. UHoesFunny March 19, 2022

    🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    cowbello fans are seething, just look at the feed 💀 proving themselves and for what? 😂

    we do not care about that boxed shaped btch lmaoo. send her to racist therapy.

    she’s had such an embarrassing past few years. from flop singles, canceled shows, to getting robbed, and getting her home repossessed. now to showing her tiddies to toddlers.

    nothing to be proud of. no wonder her boyfriend left her. who makes a “latin themed” song featuring a white man 🤣🤣🤣🤣 dumb btch lmaooo

      • UHoesFunny March 20, 2022

        lmaooo under a normani post, it bothers you so much when we show her love 🤣

        but here you are again, under a normani post, proving yourself. what a dumbass. camicky and her fans will NEVER be top tier 💀

        cowbello is cursed. there’s no up from here.
        we love to see it 🥰

      • SoNotSorry March 20, 2022

        What bothers me is that quote “just look at the feed 💀 proving themselves and for what? 😂” especially coming from someone who spent its time trying to prove Normani’s talent on Camila’s post all the time, but yet you dare to open your mouth and point a finger 😂 you are a clown, anytime you open your mouth is to say some bulls***, but it’s quite entertaining, i guess you don’t take your medecine all the time.

        The only cursed one here is Normani, Camila’s singles are on the Nelly Furtado and Madonna status for longevity while Normani hits mcdonald’s drive and parking lot 😂 poor Normani who still hasn’t released any album, not even an EP, incapable to have a top 10 hit as solo so Cardi Bop helped her and still she’s not relevant enough, screaming.

      • UHoesFunny March 20, 2022

        nelly furtado this nelly furtado that 😂😂😂😂 save it. your fav is a racist rat, and you’re proud of that becuz you’re a rat just like that scum. nothing you say will save her from her diminishing career at this point lol. enjoy 😊

      • SoNotSorry March 20, 2022

        Oh so all the people who like Camila and buy her music are all racists? Interresting, please keep on embarassing yourself in public, I live for that. Camila’s music longevity is at Nelly Furtado and Madonna level yes 😍 Normani just can’t, even her collaborations with Calvin Harris didn’t chart anywhere 😂 at least she’s finally having a moment with Wild Side thanks to Cardi Bop but she didn’t use that time to release the album and here we go again 🤣 5 years, screaming.

      • UHoesFunny March 20, 2022

        sounds like i struck a nerve 😂😅

      • SoNotSorry March 20, 2022

        Looks like you’re out of argument 😂

    • UHoesFunny March 20, 2022

      nothing to argue about, you know what i said is true. you hold on to what i say to you, and take it to heart. be clear, i have full control over you bums 🤣🤣🤣🤣 this is fun for me. ur hurt, but cha gotta accept that babe 🤷🏾‍♂️

  25. Bradlee March 19, 2022

    Soooo now she wants to perform do interviews. After 4 whole years of playing elusive and demure. It’s a little late. That ship has sailed. Fair will possibly do modestly on the rnb charts if that. We have so much talent; Summer Walker, SZA, Muni Long, Mariah the Scientist and so many others that keep their fans FED. Nobody sitting around waiting on Miss Normani who drops singles once a year.

    • Clarks0o00ñ March 19, 2022

      Jasmine Sullivan, tinashe, chloe, bree runway , ari Lennox, June’s diary

      So many hardworking black girls that need the hype and support yall keep wasting on normani .

      The black community needs to do the right thing and show support to these black girls instead of wasting hype and support on normani, a girl who has been coming since 2018. Cant sing, no personality, boring songs, no consistency.

      • Clarks0o00ñ March 19, 2022

        Forgot to include sevy streeter, tayla paxs, Victoria monet.

        These are talented,hungry black girls who are looking for just 1 opportunity to blow up.

        Normani has been given countless opportunities but she still cant deliver.

  26. Journey March 20, 2022

    You know sun wat it is and I’m not proud of it but we have so much black girl talent out rn. But I just. Want Normani idk. Something about her.

  27. Real rap March 20, 2022

    Normani’s in an awkward position of not really being new at this point; like people are familiar enough, she’s been solo for coming on 5 years. It’s hard to blow up past a certain point because the general public is kind of familiar but not super invested or curious. She’s gotta figure something else out and also have bodies of work for people to follow up on rather than 4 songs and constantly teasing for things that have not been materializing.

    I still think she’s very successful for someone who still doesn’t have one f****** album out, but time is running out for the kind of crossover she seems to want.

  28. Carrigan March 20, 2022

    I’ve never seen someone take so long to release a debut album. Several of her peers have dropped EP’s and full albums since Normani debuted as a solo artist. Yet here she is still teasing and being cryptic. She obviously doesn’t know what “strike the iron while it’s hot means”. Fair is a cute song but the album will get pushed back again once it underperforms. Watch my words. Honestly I’ve moved on from her.

    • Blow March 20, 2022

    Fair completely departs spotify USA
    It spent only 1 day inside USA spotify 200 at number 152

    152- OUT
    😂💀

  30. Blingblaow March 20, 2022

    She’s always looking to serve a moment.. rather than it come naturally, she’s stand off ish.. closed off.. and when she tries to be funny or open up it seems forced. Idk.

  31. James March 20, 2022

    If she wants this song to chart. She needs to release a music video with a great concept to support the record.
