Normani serving crumbs for dinner & it's certainly not 'The Dream.'


Heavyweight producer The Dream has just announced on Twitter that he is working on Normani's new album. But the reality is... we probably won't be hearing it for at least the next five years. 

I know we all want her to win and be the next Beyoncé, but at this rate she's set to become the next Kelly Rowland. Hell, she'll even be lucky to become the next Teairra Mari. It's been three years since Fifth Harmony went their separate ways and also three years since Normani announced her bid for solo stardom. All of her solo songs have under-performed and she’s constantly hinting at an album with no release date set in stone. 

Every few months she will do a disappearing act and become negligent. Are fans going to keep waiting years and years on potential? Normani hasn’t even done a mixtape or EP to generate buzz. 

She’s had collaborations with popular artists like Khalid, Sam Smith and Bryson Tiller, she’s opened up for Ariana Grande, had a guest spot on the Charlie's Angels soundtrack. She recieved public endorsement from Beyoncé. Furthermore, Rihanna made her one of the faces of 'Savage X Fenty.' 


She's performed at the VMAs as well as appeared on Dancing With The Stars. She's had more exposure and opportunities than Summer Walker, Ella Mai, H.E.R and all the new R&B girls that have passed her. 

And yet... despite all of these opportunities her career still hasn’t popped. Barely releasing music and not being active on social media won't work in her favour especially for a new artist in this climate. Maybe this is down to label issues, a bad team, wack management or a combination of all three. Sadly, if she isn't shining by now she probably won’t be shining any time soon.

Kelly rowland has had success out of destiny's child so stop that.... Dilemma went number 1 for 11 weeks in 2002. When love takes over went number 1 in 23 countries in 2009 that she actually wrote!!! Motivation spend the whole 2011 summer at number 1 on the r&b & hip hop charts & she stay booked.... Not badd to me...

Dilemma is Nelly's song. And Love Takes Over is David Guetta's. I am talking about her OWN songs. Not songs where she is the featured singer and just piggy backing off that artist's success. Anyone can get a number 1 song on the R&B chart. The chart that actually matter is the Billboard Hot 100.

She's listed as a writer on both songs.... How that feels....

stop the kelly rowland comparison. many wish they have the career success that kelly jad, normani included. kelly backing off the success of david guetta with when love takes over? thats not ture for sure. that song is his first number one in UK n many other countries, making him internationally known. i guess normani is the one still struggling instead..

Exactly.... Nelly approached Kelly first to do dilemma.... David guetta gave Kelly the track & she wrote it... She's getting ROYALTIES off them records....

Also she needs to ask Monica why her management team didn't get her some writing credits on the boy is mine because Brandy is getting all them royalties.

Kelly rowland at 24 years old, the same age as normani right now, Had 4 Grammys awards 3 with destiny's child & one with nelly... These new r&b female singers CANNOT even get a nomination & they crying talking about they are retiring.��������

Exactly!!! Normani is the one that's piggy backing off others success... The music industry knows Kelly Rowland is legendary... This blogger is a hater. Just watch & read at the things she says about certain artists...
