Since popping open a bag of Cracker Jill as the face of a new Frito-Lay campaign to empower women in sports, Normani has been in her bag about her long-awaited debut album.
The serially delayed project, which has been promised since 2019, is ‘definitely’ headed to shelves this summer according to one of the R&B diva’s latest interviews.
But, just as her dedicated fans (affectionately called #NormaniNation) prepare themselves for the LP’s arrival, she’s added even more exciting news to accompany its rollout.
See what we mean inside:
Although the songstress was treated to quite the warm reception of her latest buzz single, the breakup ballad ‘Fair,’ she quickly confirmed its high-tempo follow-up wouldn’t be long behind it.
Taking to our friends at EliteDaily, the former Fifth Harmony hitmaker doubled down on the delivery timeframe of the tune as well as its yet-titled parent project.
“I can definitely say that it’s coming in the summer,” the 25-year-old said about her debut album. “…and I can absolutely say — as if absolutely means more than definitely [laughs] — that I have a new record coming in the next month that I’m really excited to put out.”
The announcement of its summer arrival comes shortly after Normani took to BET.com to dish on the concepts set to line the opus.
“You can expect a range — me being my most vocal and authentic than ever before from start to finish. There’s a range from what you can hear from the records I’ve already put out along with the next record I’ll be putting out — there’s so much dimension to me as a person so I really wanted my artistry to reflect that,” she shared. “Sonically, I was able to experiment. I love being in the studio as my playground and production value to me is super important. As a songwriter, I’ve grown tremendously. With me trusting myself, you’ll hear that confidence for sure.”
In addition to the potential of landing a Lil Nas X, Doja Cat, and/or Chloe Bailey feature on the project (as we reported here), ‘Mani fans can expect to see her hit the road in its support.
“A solo tour [is happening] and that’s all I’m gonna say [laughs],” she revealed to ED.

A true queen. Can’t wait to see you slay bxch!
Please, you can’t even talk about a tour when you can’t release an album in 6 years 😂 no label can allow that, it doesn’t exist. Look at Ciara, after the sucess of the first album she was supposed to drop the second with the same productor to consolidate the sucess but she did the mistake to change her direction and lost the gain, tour was scrapped after that. It’s ALWAYS how it works in this industry, Normani just prove how unprofessional she is right now, it’s to embarassing.
All this mouf and Cowmila is FLOPPING in 20 countries lmaooo. Horrible album
You mean ‘Familia’ hits #1 on iTunes of 20+ Countries? 😂 stay mad!
Ciara’s second album topped the charts against Eminem and Gwen Stefani, Promise was a huge R&B hit and Like a Boy still gets love when they play it at the club. We already know you just like to talk out your ass, but thanks for providing receipts that you do not have the slightest clue of what you’re talking about.
Do you know how to read? I never said the second album was a flop, I said she changed her direction and lost the gain she had with the first one and that’s why the tour was scrapped 😅 don’t project your ignorance on me darling, check these facts and do better the next time 😘 thanks for proving how professional I am
PS: Ciara lost 50% of album sell with her second album, that’s the consequence of the musical direction change, Jazzy Pha had a different plan for her second project 😉 yes i do know what i’m talking about, you can be mad.
😍🥰
Yaaaas. Normani you are that girl. Give us live performances girl. You know you’re the best out of the new girls with it.
Delusional 😂 that poor girl isn’t lucky to have liars like you for stans who don’t even buy and stream her music 🤭
Looks like ima have to CHANGE MY NAME SINCE MY STANS KEEP POSTING UNDER “J”
Slaymani better come though now.
Flop guuuuurl, 6 years of “it’s comiiiing” and still y’all can wait 😂 hilarious
Normani doing the tour Apèmila wanted to do but couldn’t. She canceled it cuz no one bought tickets to see her illgál fugly fat toilet scubbing ass. That Mexican bab00n better go back in her cage and eat her banana like a good bathroom sláv e mònkèy flop she is. 😹😹😹
Camila already relased 3 albums and did it already, Normani just can’t release an album and she talks about a tour? 😂 HILARIOUS, no artist can confirme they will go on tour before any album dropped and the critics/sales are on point, how unprofessional this is OMG 🤦♂️
😭Fruity gay pressed Camila bottom fan will be here soon enough making all kinds of accounts foaming at the mouth’ Stay mad mr. crazy pressed bottom 😭
Poor F******* stans 😭😭😭 doing the cry baby and calling out others for being smart and right for, what? 6 years now? LMAO 😂 you got the fans that you deserve.

😂😂😂💀💀
Goodluck on that “album” u speak of.
😂🤭
They are gonna drop her, I cant wait.
I think you mean Epic is about to drop Camila after these sales predictions for this familia album 🤣😂 Her cousins in Cuba didn’t f stream? Why the first week sales so low hoeeee?
Camila is the 22nd artist with the most pop singles longevity in the world next to madonna and nelly furtado, what about Normani? Please, stop embarassing yourself 😉
Love this for you mani. Super Proud and excited.
Where is the budget for a roll out?
😂😂
RCA will never give u any budget cause ur a massive flop.
Wild side FLOPPED HARD (charted in only 4 countries overseas, 100 million streams)
A complete waste of investment.
Now I understand why normani is selling cracker Jacks. She needs the money. Smh
Just going out sad.

Mind u, this girl posed completely n*** on a huge billboard in LA in the middle of a busy road, Bùtt àss naked for the world to see and for what
😂😂
RCA must be regretting signing this girl.
Let’s not forget, the same writers who wrote and produced justin bieber’s number one song peaches , are the same folks who wrote normani’s fair
Normani working with the best of the best but shes still TANKING hard.
😂😂
U really think RCA records gonna give this girl a budget for her “album”?
😂😂💀
Camicky is flopping as we speak lmaoooooooooooooooooooooo 🤣☕️
‘Familia’ Hits #1 on iTunes Of 20+ Countries, how this can be a flop? And it’s just the begining as it was just released, stay mad and watch.
Stay pressed and watch it disappear into thin air lmaoooooooooooooooooooooooo 👀🍿
I don’t worry at all, as soon it is n°1 haters talk about flop 😂 y’all are sooo mad, love it.
She is a flop and arrogant. Bye!
All she does is TALK TALK TALK
Gurl, show us dont tell us.
She has been talking and talking since 2018, this is 2022, she still hasnt shown us anything of substance.
She makes alot of mouth, just for.the music to be mediocre and sub par.
All these essays of you crying tears and for what?
Upset that she’s proving that a** wrong again. Remember Camicky the rat cancelled her tour Bc no demand 🤣
More music. Album. And Tour. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Camicky the Rat can’t even go top 40 solo. Second single wasn’t even bubbling. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
3rd single can’t even go top 20 with the biggest male pop star
CATCH IT

@Normani – Fair
5,356,667 total streams (+182,852) (after almost 1 month of release)
😂😂💀💀🤭🤭
Lies, she had a n°6 with Never Be The Same as a solo act, check your facts. Where is Normani top 10 hit? Bye.
It is pretty clear what has happened here. Fair has flopped big time and so another single is being rushed out in desperation. As for this tour, something tells me if there is one it will be along the lines of Keri Hilson’s infamous Walmart parking lot performance.
LMAO, a tour? Girl, an artist is supposed to tour AFTER the first album release and after the confirmation of a sucess, without it no label is sending an artist on a tour 😂 as usual Miss Normani is skipping steps, this is just embarassing at this point.
Lol didn’t cowmila’s last tour get cancelled due to low tickets sales and no demand 😂
Normani is was caught performing at McDonald’s
Dont speak ur embarrassing ur self
Camila =3 albums
Normani =ERROR
Normani opened her stinking unwashed rotten ànùs on tiktok and for what?
Fair- bubbling under number 15
5 million streams after 1 month of release
And ur worried about Camila?
U got ur priorities fùcķèd up
😂💀
Who cares? It happens to any artists, the fact that she’s the 22nd artists with the most pop singles longevity in the world is eloquent enough. She already released 3 albums in 6 years, already been on tour and will again in the future because this album is way much better than the previous one. Say what you want but Normani didn’t do a quarter of everything Camila did. At the end of a decade we’ll who is where 😀
Beauty Body & Brains. Other basic rat bîtches can’t relate.
Music. Endorsements. Tour. Album.
We love to see it.
Remember those Camiicky nasty fans said she lost her budget 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
Remember they said she will never release a single again 😂😂😂😂
LMAO 6 years later? A solo tour? Where is the album? No artist can do a solo tour without an album out and the confirmation of its sucess 😂 where is fair?
Just look at her à.p.è face
😂😂😂😂
The new beyonce my àss
😂😂
Her mama still gonna dìe of càncèr this year, hopefully (fingers cross)
How are comments like this approved? I’m convinced the blog owners are behind most of these troll accounts. So pathetic! This blog used to be fun and informational. The trolls were funny but they didn’t overrrun the site. Now that’s all you see are hateful, racist, homophobic and every other negative terminology comments under posts. Y’all should really be shamed.
Playing victim
😂😂
As if I care
Normani is c0tt0n picking sĺàvè,so now what?
Are u gonna fight me? I’m waiting
I hope her ugly à.p.è mother dìès of cancèr this year. We love to see it 😍
Go to Camila cabello posts and read comments, very nasty but yall dont say anything, but when we return the favour, yall start playing victim, why?
U can dish it but u cant take it. Typical Cowards
I will continue to drag that ugly àss à.p.è bìtçh called normani. I will not stop , NEVER.
They are. TGJ lets the most vile and disgusting s*** stay up while deleting whatever doesn’t fit the narrative. They plant comments and pose as regular viewers for more hits. Sad
Ain’t nobody forcing you to stay here FOOL!
My stans keep posting under “J” so I’m dropping that name. You can have it f**
ANYWHO Normani this is giving me She By Sheree vibes. I love her music and FAIR is an amazing song but this is her FINAL SHOT. FAIR should have come out right after “Dancing With A Stranger”
I wouldn’t be surprised if she faked her mom’s cancer to delay the release of her album again.
Mega Flop💅🏾 Camila’s 3rd album is out. Normanly will never
One career is at it’s end; the other is just beginning
Sad day for bad body Camila
The end of what? Camila is the 22nd artist with the most pop singles longevity in the world and just released her 3rd album in 6 years while Normani talk about a solo tour after, what? 1 song per year? If it doesn’t hit a top ten then she’s changing plans and do it all over again, wtf is this? Normani is not an artist 😉
Remember when CaDonkeys ticket sales were embarrassingly low she axed her tour & then lied & said it was due to the pandemic??
😂😂
This girls a liar & a flop. Now look at her stan panicking in the comments
😂😂
F** with mani it’s gon cost ya
😂 where is the album? 6 years now ⏰ 4 more years and Camila will release a best of while Normani will still say “it’s coming” 😂
“ Who cares? It happens to any artists” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 no the f*** it does NOT lol
Beyoncé sells out EVERYTIME, Adele sells out EVERYTIME, Ariana Grande sells out EVERYTIME, Dua Lipa sells out EVERYTIME 💀
Never have I ever heard any of these artist cancel tours or have LOW ticket sales lmaooo. So save the lies and excuses 😂
Cowmila just isn’t that btch and can’t sell a show if her (tiddies) depended on it 🤣
FLOP ass btch. She lied about her album, has NOTHING to do with her poor family lol. Just her being a lesbo now with WILLOW.
And not Willow Smith overshadowing the whole album 💀 she was the best part about it lmaooo. DEAD
You know you need to take your meds, what are you waiting for? What are your excuses for Normani not releasing any album or EP in 6 years? Again, stop embarassing yourself and take your pills.
I can always count on the comment section of TGJ for a messy display of immaturity! Grown ass adults bickering about people y’all don’t even know.
