Wasn't it not long ago folks were saying Normani was the next Beyoncé? Sorry not sorry but a more realistic comparison would have been Ciara. It's been little over a week since she dropped the nudity-filled visuals for her Cardi B-assisted new single 'Wild Side.' When the video dropped, this was practically the first time fans got to hear the song in full. And if there's one thing she's going to do is smash some choreography. Sadly, this Tesco Value version of Aaliyah’s ‘One in a Million’ is painfully unremarkable. Cardi added nothing to the song. She was put there for shock value and to give it a commercial booster. Seems to be working as the song has just debuted at #14 on the Billboard Hot 100. Sure... it's great Norm's is going the R&B route, but this was not worthy of a 2-year wait prior to 'Motivation.' It's not the worst thing she's ever released, but would I listen to it again? Probably not.
This was pretty amazing in my opinion. You can tell actual work ethic and creativity was actually put into this. I feel like the record would have been a hit with or without Cardi. We’ve NEVER had a BROWN SKINNED Pop girl who can actually dance at the forefront, while doing R&B music. This shouldn’t be devalued and needs to be celebrated.
I agree with you @CWB. I love Normani and her work ethics is impeccable and admirable. Fine, the wait took forever but I think we are not giving her enough props. She needs to blow, period! Let's celebrate her instead of dragging her down. Toya, I hope you are having a good day....stay positive and encourage your sistas.....this is coming from a brotha
