shes so unique because this whole fast-talking thing she does? shes REALLY good at it and not many people in the industry are good at it like her. i feel like people expect singers to sing high notes and belt loudly but normani is bringing something to that table that is near unseen in mainstream music right now and I am LIVING FOR IT
Dude u keep saying that on posts...afro carribbean is a thing. Rihanna and cardi b are both afro carribbean women for example. This is a carribbean style afro beat
don't bring racism into this, I also don't like his comment, but why do you have to say he said that because he was mexican and the last part of your comment wtf. That is just not okay. btw this is coming from a black person
The only Queen of Afrobeat is Tiwa Savage & Calvin Harris did a very poor job at doing Afrobeat sound, like most of them white DJ anyway ... He should had ask Wizkid some help
1. *I never thought Normani would do an Afrobeat song* 2. *I never knew Calvin Harris could produce Afrobeat* 3. *I never dreamt a collab with Wizkid would happen*
14 million streams on Spotify! If she releases a video this song will be major! Just think about. If Rihana came out with this it would be all over! So Normani needs the right promotion with this song. Rooting for ha!
I'm Shook ! Her music sounds soo mature. It sounds nothing like a girl who is just out of a girl group. Its not typical pop girl music 🔥 So this is what mani's music is gonna sound like! Wow 😍
I’m not even a Normani fan but I want her to succeed cause she deserves it the most after everything she’s been through. I really want her and Dinah to succeed man they’re just deserve it.
@@ranee5019 she had hate comments made towards her by Camilla fans a while ago because she describe Camilla as quirky in a interview. Those fans made racist comments. The cyberbullying got so bad that she left social media. Also she was overlooked in 5h by fans especially with ally and Dinah. Out of all the girls she had it hardest because of her race which I find sad and wrong. Now her talent is finally being released and appreciated.
Normani broke highest debut for a female solo artist from a girl band with love lies debut at 43 Normani had the highest climbing song on top 10 And guess what she'll continue to break records !!!!
Really wished they pushed this song more, cuz its so different to what other pop girls are doing. They should've dropped a music vid for this and gotten normani some performances on late night talk shows. But that's just my lil opinion.
@@deannamccrimmon7805 anywhere but rca. All of their artist are top tier and they're flopping. maybe one good song and then we never hear about them again.
i've literally repeated this 20 times, mix of afrobeat, garage and pop is awesome, Calvin created a nice canvas for Normani and Wizkid to kill it! Deffo top 10 in the UK for sure!
Black radio better support this woman and play both of these songs, because "Love Lies" should have been our's first and not just the pop world's. I hope they have a video for both songs, because both are legitimate hits - who says you can only focus on one single at a time? How about two videos in one? A good 7 minute video? Anything... just don't give up on either song.
Nataly A The other radio station's are playing her, that's why "Love Lies" was a number 1 pop song. It's black radio that hasn't connected with her or "love Lies" -- which is weird because the song is still number 1 on the r&b itunes charts -- you would think black radio would have jumped on the song months ago. I just don't want her to get whitewashed.
if they can't support Tinashe and labeling her, putting her into categories what makes you think they're all of sudden gonna change for normani? shes already labeled the next Beyonce which is insane. bey is untouchable one, two Normani is a rookie with a lot of potential. the general public just need to get it together.
Normani......why on earth did you not release this ("Check List") as a single. This is what so many of your fans are waiting for! Come on already.....throw your fans a bone already. Love "Fair"....loved "Wild Side," "Waves," "Motivation," "Dancing With A Stranger," "Diamonds," "Slow Down" and "Love Lies" ......but damn girl we want to see you dance and WE WANT TO DANCE......To some fast paced Normani bops! Pleeeease for the love of God! We know you're feeding your creative side....but feed us on occasion with what we like and want to hear!
This song is so fucking good. This could be so freaking huge if only they did even the slightest bit of promotion. My god this song is IT. This could be one of those summer songs that play literally everywhere.
REALLY did people forgot about these wonders i mean i was OBSESED with this when it was released and i really vibed a lot to "slow down" how did people forget
Omg this song is amazing I love the afro beat so much . And the song is so catchy . Normani didn't came to play . 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬 proud of wizkid comin this far 💙💙💙💙💎
This song gonna be huge, mark my words! You will hear it everywhere soon. Today is 18th.Nov,18 with barely 6 mil views, 60k likes, 97k subs. Well done Normani
Normani is giving us those west African, afrobeats bops!!! I need choreography, I need a visual I NEED IT NOW!!
Nats Nefertiti please go support dinah jane first solo song bottled up
Me too girl😝
Patricia Bulla will do.
Watch the Tidal Brooklyn performance. She was doing some good choreography.
Wizkid best
Still baffled as to why there is not a proper video for this song cause its a banger
It's funny how people think it's afro beats just because wizkid is on the beat😂 so many articles that prove it's Caribbean style👍👏
Agree!
A banger!
@@curlss.3b289 I guess you never heard of Afro Caribbean
Afro Caribbean is a thing....cardi and rihanna are both African Caribbean women. And this beat is a Caribbean style afro beat.
I badly need a dance video for this after motivation..
Check her live performances in sweetener tour ;)
@@hadjazibaroudi1474 i will. 😊
yeah it would be incredibly amazing ...
For real! I didn’t even know this was her!
That repetitive string motif in the instrumental is just so catchy!
Lol that was your first introduction to Afrobeats ... Influenced by Wizkid
shes so unique because this whole fast-talking thing she does? shes REALLY good at it and not many people in the industry are good at it like her. i feel like people expect singers to sing high notes and belt loudly but normani is bringing something to that table that is near unseen in mainstream music right now and I am LIVING FOR IT
Reminds me of Destinys child
The Beyoncé influence
also Rihanna
But Beyonce been doin this since destinys child? She started it lol
@mylifeisa mess right they better do some homework .. example .. go listen to Destinys child- bug a boo
I already imagine Normani killing the dance in those two songs
Yass💯
I was thinking the same thing
SAME
All I hear is African viiiiibe daaaamn we are so rich
rude girl SO TRUE! Rich in everything! ❤️😌
yet some ppl deny africa is still inspiring black americans
Wizkid on the beat he is Nigerian
rude girl can't wait for the video and most importantly her dance routine🔥💞
You will probably like this too, i'm an African and here's the link to one of my songs ruclips.net/video/eCjNM0Sm0Ek/видео.html
Wait they got Normani on an afro beat?
Wtf Calvin Harris produced an afro beat ?
I fw it
Precisely my thoughts! 💜
Did he? Did he really? There's many articles on this song based on what Calvin Harris said that proves it's caribbean😂
Dude u keep saying that on posts...afro carribbean is a thing. Rihanna and cardi b are both afro carribbean women for example. This is a carribbean style afro beat
So stop being a smart ass to people when you are not properly educated.
Either way it originates from Africa. Still an Afrobeat lmao.
like if wizkid never disappoints on International features
You know man
I swear
He a leader
Here for Wizkid
"Normani is that bish" -Nicki Minaj

She said bitch boo. If you gonna quote Quote!

This is such a bomb song 4 years later and I’m still here 😭❤️❤️
This is gonna be big in the Caribbean.. They started playing it on the radio in Jamaica Ayeeeeeee Maniiiii 🇯🇲😄🇯🇲😄🇯🇲😄🇯🇲😄🇯🇲
I heard it was played in Grenada too 🇬🇩 🇬🇩🇬🇩 🔥
Bcuz soca originated in the caribbean and this is a soca beat not no afro beat lmao 😂 i wud knw im from the Caribbean 🇹🇹

Exactlyyyyyyy
@@denmariemarshall17 lol yes den den
Wizkid putting those African bars like never before ✊🏾
Normani doing Afro beats omg
My African heart is SHOOK😂💙💙
ItzKeisha same DRC here
Same sis, l am so happy!!! ;D
That's Calvin Harris in the production, I bet she doesn't even know how to play a basic melody on piano
don't bring racism into this, I also don't like his comment, but why do you have to say he said that because he was mexican and the last part of your comment wtf. That is just not okay. btw this is coming from a black person
The only Queen of Afrobeat is Tiwa Savage & Calvin Harris did a very poor job at doing Afrobeat sound, like most of them white DJ anyway ... He should had ask Wizkid some help
Normani will be huge I know that, and I'm waiting to see that happen
Love Lies is quaking
Now it's happening!!
#StreamMotivation
#Motivation
Yeah let’s keep believing in her. She did it once and she’ll do it again once her album comes put and new music/performances too ✨🔥❤️
It’s a year later and still no music
This could of been a Carribean hit if her label promoted her properly. Sigh ...
NORMANI CHECK LIST AND SLOW DOWN ARE BOPS OMFG YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO SNAP SO HARD
Am retarded have no words 2 bobs in one day
OMG Normani I'm so proud of you, this song is so dope!!! I can't wait for your album!!! 😊💕💕💕
i still cannot believe we got two amazing bops from queen mani!!!!!!!!!! she makes edm sound amazing! i am so in love with these bops mani!!!!!!!!
This is afrobeat
Who came here after "Motivation"?
ME!
well this is the third I'm watching after motivation
🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️
I did after watching a vid about Nomani's team not promoting her enough.
y'all slept so hard on this song
NORMANI SINGS SO FAST IT'S LIKE RAPPING BUT IT'S NOT. LEGEND!! 😍😩
HELLL YAAAA
Beyoncé's influence is real
Wizkid. STARBOY!!!!
Beyonce rap sings and She's a huge Beyonce fan ..so shes definitely influenced by her!
The Beyonce jumped out
1. *I never thought Normani would do an Afrobeat song*
2. *I never knew Calvin Harris could produce Afrobeat*
3. *I never dreamt a collab with Wizkid would happen*
Afro beat is the third largest genre and running the music industry if she want to stay relevant she better hop on the wave
SHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOK
Wish we had no expectations
yet here we are
@EMINIK we were all never ready!! Let's support them. I need them both on the video!!!
This one really had hit potential man
14 million streams on Spotify! If she releases a video this song will be major! Just think about. If Rihana came out with this it would be all over! So Normani needs the right promotion with this song. Rooting for ha!
How You Stream On Spotify Or See The Views??

I just want a video for this song

Why haven't they released a video?
I'm Shook ! Her music sounds soo mature. It sounds nothing like a girl who is just out of a girl group. Its not typical pop girl music 🔥
So this is what mani's music is gonna sound like! Wow 😍
☝☝
@Dave Bennit Wizkid is Nigerian! It sounds like she's doing some African accent
Shook!
@Dave Bennit Yeah that's true they do sound similar
Actually it’s Calvin Harris’ beats.
I'm so glad that Afrobeat has been reaching American music as of lately. Nice work, Normani and WizKid!!!
only a matter of time, labels are getting their pop artists to sound urban and edgy
Calvin Harris is Scottish
S EF wizkid is african... Nigerian to be precise.. and the Song 100% has some african flavour in it..
@@Itshannahef my point was that this isn't American music.
this is not afro beat babes.
I’m back 3 years later I told y’all this was my fav damn Normani track 😭 underrated af
Imagine how tired we are for her to drop the lead single and album geez.
I’m not even a Normani fan but I want her to succeed cause she deserves it the most after everything she’s been through. I really want her and Dinah to succeed man they’re just deserve it.
ALL 5 DESEVE IT
Same lmao!
harry C. Exactly
Not wanna be rude, but what has she been through? Just innocently asking
