Normani’s tone is so beautiful, she excels at ballads and rnb songs to show off her layered vocal arrangements. I’m glad she showcased it more. Love the album, it’s a short but sweet succinct masterpiece debut! There’s plenty of time for Mani to explore pop and also see more of her upbeat dancing side with visuals and when she goes on tour.
What do people get out of constantly saying she missed her moment…like do you want her to continue making music or not? People in the pop world are so absorbed with debuting #1 in every aspect they’ve seemed to put her on some pedestal when she’s legit a new artist. Support, buy, and stream so she can get label support to continue creating.
No really im tired of it. Like you either wanna listen to the music or not. Theres no need to keep trying to get an idea in everyone's head that whatever she puts out is null and void all because she didn't follow yalls schedule🙄
Omg we have the same taste I guess. Cuz her 2 song with Calvin is still on my playlist. And every time she say that we all gonna get an uptempo music I always pray it would sound like Checklist.
Yes cause I don’t understand like read your contract literally every artist that has signed with RCA has had problems with them, either with them not promoting their artist and other stuff
ghetto ass record label. they need to go defunct. every single time an artist i like signs to rca, i weep for their career. then it’s like, well, it’s only a matter of time before they, inevitably, shelve you and keep you stuck so you can’t leave without putting up some sort of fight. i cannot 😂
@@princess_niya2407RCA has put a lot of money and energy into Tate McRae after greedy’s success and it’s definitely paid off with her sold out tour and good album performance. But I’m worried for whenever they decide to drop her funds (bc they always seem to do that with their artists) and Tate sees a huge falloff
is rca the issue here ? look at doja and Tate there performing everywhere and smashing on the charts ? or is it the fact Normanis too lazy to release consistent music , killing her fanbase in the process and asking for million dollar music video budgets like wild side and not making the money back after , if RCA has already invested so much into her and made nothing back then why would they invest even more when she doesn't even wanna release a album.
Please listen to it The album is phenomenal I loved it still on rotation ❤❤❤❤.. Normani has crafted her own unique sound I love it and I went in super critical too
@@AngeBiampandou rca gave her 1 million dollars for the wild side music video and that song did not do anywhere near what they paid for it , so there probably not trusting of her anymore
@@ee12345n So they did not get their return of investment basically. That's taugh. She might get drop if the numbers are not up to par. I wish her the best
No offense but Normani would be lucky if she even debuts on the charts, the label did her dirty with her promotion. She had all these years and they couldn’t plan her rollout better 😭
You’re right but the smarter thing business wise would’ve been for her to start out with pop & transitioned into r&b once she had an established fan base that would support her no matter what. Beyonce didn’t like a lot of the music she did at the beginning but she had to keep things similar to her destiny’s child sound until she was established & then she experimented with different things. Do you think Beyonce would be as successful as she is now if she had left destiny’s child & went straight to house music? It’s why Beyonces actual début Work it Out flopped cause it didn’t fit the sound her fan base from DC was used to from her. She ended up scrapping her original album with the work it out sound & did crazy in love which was received in a great way. Normani could’ve pumped out a few pop projects & could’ve been transitioning into r&b now but unfortunately she couldn’t. Motivation was released in 2019 she could’ve been on her 4th or 5th album by now and could’ve already been making that r&b transition she wanted and her fan base would support it cause she would’ve been more established. I know some people who like her album which is good but it’s personally not my cup of tea but I’ll keep a look out for her future projects 💕
@@rayeeiffel480Beyoncé didn't scraper her debut album. Where did you get that from ? And Work it Out was for a movie soundtrack. It wasn't the album lead. The music video is literally set in the 70s with images of Austin Power throughout
@@AngeBiampandou It’s literally public information I’ve seen fans talk about it. & I watched a destinys child interview. Beyonce decided to go last with her album cause it was supposed to be Michelle, Kelly, & the Beyonce but Kelly got a big hit with Dillema & Beyoncé’s work it out didn’t do good & they were testing the waters with that song cause Beyonce originally wanted to do songs that sounded like that & even a bit of neo soul but since work it out didn’t do well she decided to scrap her original idea & they decided to let kelly go with her album first so Beyonce would have more time to re work on her debut.
Would have loved more versatility from her. Yes, Normani has a great tone for r&b, but it would have been nice to have a few more up-tempos. I love that Tinashe is finally getting a hit after so long. Sad that her music isn't appreciated more by the mass.
I think she used up all of the budget. I know she paid $1 mil for wild side out of her own pocket & apparently she had like 2 or 3 albums I think that were scrapped & studio time is expensive so maybe rca isn’t funding anymore cause they don’t feel like they’re getting a return on their investment? Idk though maybe they could be waiting to see which song is received the best & then release a video for that?
I DON'T LISTEN TO CRITICS, ESPECIALLY THOSE FROM RUclips OR OTHER PLATFORMS NORMANI IS DOING FINE..DROWN OUT THE NOISE AND ENJOY THIS DOPE ASS MUSIC ALL MY R AND POP GALS. STAND UP
I really like the album. Normani knows how to kill a music video. I promise she could make many of the songs on her album more mainstream if RCA would just fund some music videos.
I have thoughts on Sabrina Carpenter 🤔😂… her commercial circulation feels veryyyy… forced. Pertaining to Dopamine, my only notes are that it needed an intro, and a few interludes.
I think they’re now focusing on sabrina cause ari had a bit of a down fall. At first they were concerned with Ari so they never paid much attention to Sabrina cause they were kinda similar. Now that all that mess has happened with Ari and I honestly think Ari isn’t as passionate, they wanna prop Sabrina up. I prefer Ariana’s music though and her voice always sent me to the heavens.
@@legitjusticeYeah but she still got that extra industry push. There are other girls that opened for Taylor but aren’t getting the same push as her like Gracie & Gayle but Sabrina has the IT factor, more appeal, better music, & has recently done a good job at creating an image/aesthetic for herself
I love Normani but the truth is she missed her moment years ok with motivation. That was it and she missed it. Her album is great but people have moved on, save for a few dedicated, EXTREMELY patient fans.
Nah, I think with proper promotion, she could still regain that attention. Her team needs to wake up and put a budget behind her album because most if not all of the songs are great.
I think she had momentum with Wildside but the hype kinda died down. Motivation came out in 2019 then Wildside in 2021. Then she announced her album with an official cover but in february of 2024 to only get a single ft Gunna in late mars or early may. Everything became confusing and lackluster as far the rollout. The single wasn't strong enough and there was no mv
This! Every artist has a chance or moment to prove themselves and capitalized off their popularity, like how Sabrina is doing right now. No one is popular or in the spotlight forever. 2019 was Normani’s moment, if she dropped an album them it would have done better. The half a decade wait killed her career.
i think having your song blow up on tiktok is a good thing, as long as the original artist is credited & its not forced. Its the closest thing to a relevant monolithic platform (radio, cable tv) we have today.
I think that after 5th harmony spilt and she did all those collabs and was reaching the top 10 billboard charts . that was her moment to drop album number 1 . The album is really refreshing and authentic . It kinda reminds me of Aaliyah one and million and how unique that project felt . Im just saying
Dopamine 6/10 for me after listening again pretty mid its not bad but expected more variety of genres like more uptempo beats where She really shines... R&B too convoluted for me.
I think pple just had their expectations far too high, this was her FIRST SOLO project. Sure, she spent absolutely ages making it. But name an artist that made a classic album on their debut,
I can't really get into Tinashe like that. There's maybe one or two songs of gees that I actually like. I do think that a good portion of the TikTok audience will play tf out of that song and won't listen to the rest of her music. However, there ARE some people on TikTok who WILL listen to it and then listen to other music from her. As far as Normani's new album, I do like it. It does blend well. Maybe a little too well because some of it sounds repetitive. But I like most of it. I don't like all of them and I never cared for that song she has with Gunna. But I do agree it's a pretty solid album.
Tinashe's discography is actually pretty 🔥! She has soooo much good material it's insane. If you like Normani's new album then you would love Tinashe's Nightride mixtape/album. Nightride has a dark moody vibe and really good lyrics to match. RCA wanted it to be more pop sounding so they wouldn't release it as an album technically. Tinashe still released it but RCA marketed more like a mixtape (I still say it's an album). She released Joyride a few years later which was her last album on that label. I think Normani should actually have Tinashe on a remix since she's really good at dark moody and vibey songs like the ones on Normani's album. And they would eat the choreo up! And then Tinashe could put Normani on the Nasty remix! Normani and Tinashe have already worked together in the past (Tinashe wrote 2 songs on a Fifth Harmony album). Tinashe's song Nasty is predicted to move up 20 spots on the Billboard Hot 100 from number 90 to number 70. And it looks like it's going to keep going up the charts further based on how viral it's become. If Normani is smart she will start jumping on other people's songs and remixes to increase her visibility since she doesn't have much promo herself and draw in their fan base. Her album is out so now she just needs to promote it and keep herself in people's view. Her album is solid so now she has to get the general publics attention so that they can hear it too.
Y’all not real fans fr and it shows 😂 if you were a fan you wouldn’t continue to bash or say “she missed her moment” she obviously had little to no control over clearly so I don’t get the issue. Stream it or don’t nobody cares. [as]
Facts Dee cus I like her r&b better to. Based on the song wit gunna an wild side I tho she was gonna give us a aaliya/pnd feel. To me she had 7/11 slow chill songs.
Empressive only gives Beyoncé bad reviews. All the other girls that are hyped on Twitter but can not sell tickets and barely chart get great reviews tho 😂😂😂
@@jujubee6030 Yeah this is a lie. She is always saying slick shady things towards her and then trying to cover and sugarcoat it with bland compliments and opinions. And she does this with several people that she covers and talks about.
the album would be better received if there wasn’t such a long wait 😭. tbh I thought bc so many people kept talking about her never dropping it meant she’d have better debut numbers but it was worse than I thought. I guess it just shows artists gotta be more active to keep interest alive
You only could do the long waiting thing if you already have an established fan base. Kendrick, Drake, Carti, Cole, Tyler, Travis, Rocky, X, Ski. Carti and Ski aren’t big as Drake, Kendrick and Cole but their fan bases are so loyal.
Yeah I didn’t like it. I tried to listen to it multiple times to see if it would grow on me but it didn’t personally. I know some people who enjoyed it. I feel like I liked her sound with motivation more and dancing with a stranger as well as love lies with khalid but I didn’t like wild side or any of this albums songs. I liked the production of candy paint but I hated the lyrics. I feel like if Normani had kept momentum and released this it definitely would’ve been better received. I think a part of me not liking it was cause of the long wait so it just didn’t reach my expectations you know? Hopefully she’ll continue and maybe ill enjoy her future projects more. Also wanted to add: I don’t like how her voice is edited in the songs. Like kinda robotic and it sounded flat to me if that makes sense? I think she needs to figure out what works with her tone of voice more.
Unfortunately I think there was a big gap due to personal life. I think one of her parents got cancer. Also, I think she wants to be more R&B. She didn't like motivation.
@@tonialston1968 I remember seeing that about her parents; i’m not criticizing her for taking a break. but the break explains the bad responses bc people feel the album wasn’t worth the wait and I also saw someone call it “dated” as tho they can tell some songs were supposed to be released years ago. if she starts being consistent now or if a song randomly goes viral, she’ll have a chance to pull people back in
This rollout was horrible. I'm not impressed with anything, and I still haven't seen a video or performance yet. The shit don't make sense at all. The album is so disjointed. I already heard 4 out of the 12 songs on the album. Must of y'all have moved into Stan territory. I refuse! I'm a fan, but a real fan gives real criticism. Throw this whole era away.
I like Normani, but Dopamine is not an R&B. I call it a "Hipster" album. And I call it that because it's like pseudo-R&B that's putting trap and hip hop in the forefront and her she's not putting her vocals full forward really on it other than a few songs. Honestly, I was disappointed. Recycled trap beats where most songs sound the same and ratchet lyrics. Normani is and can be so much more than that.
It’s maximalist RnB. Xtra layers, more provocative, moody, and momental rather than traditional RnB which centers around mostly storytelling, and others more traditional RnB jams focusing on vocal agility and Eros/Agape style lyricism.
the way most of these comments are about charts but not the quality of the music
The music was mid too. Not a single song or vocal on the album impressed me. Most songs were forgettable and lacked substance.
@@mimia.4810Ppl are not gonna go back listen to that album in 20 years. It's not a strong enough debut even as an era It's not memorable
@@AngeBiampandouto you 😂😂
I loved it honestly, I would give it an 8/10. It's fire. The production was immaculate, and her voice is beautiful.

Yeah, a lot of the hype has died down especially after Wildside. We only got ONE performance of that song
You only could do the long waiting thing if you already have an established fan base. Kendrick, Drake, Carti, Cole, Tyler, Travis, Rocky, X, Ski. Carti and Ski aren’t big as Drake, Kendrick and Cole but their fan bases are so loyal.
Yeah I didn’t like it. I tried to listen to it multiple times to see if it would grow on me but it didn’t personally. I know some people who enjoyed it. I feel like I liked her sound with motivation more and dancing with a stranger as well as love lies with khalid but I didn’t like wild side or any of this albums songs. I liked the production of candy paint but I hated the lyrics. I feel like if Normani had kept momentum and released this it definitely would’ve been better received. I think a part of me not liking it was cause of the long wait so it just didn’t reach my expectations you know? Hopefully she’ll continue and maybe ill enjoy her future projects more. Also wanted to add: I don’t like how her voice is edited in the songs. Like kinda robotic and it sounded flat to me if that makes sense? I think she needs to figure out what works with her tone of voice more.
Unfortunately I think there was a big gap due to personal life. I think one of her parents got cancer. Also, I think she wants to be more R&B. She didn't like motivation.
@@tonialston1968 I remember seeing that about her parents; i’m not criticizing her for taking a break. but the break explains the bad responses bc people feel the album wasn’t worth the wait and I also saw someone call it “dated” as tho they can tell some songs were supposed to be released years ago. if she starts being consistent now or if a song randomly goes viral, she’ll have a chance to pull people back in
i wish chloe was gaining traction like tinashe and normani those are the three it b|k pop girls rn
This rollout was horrible. I'm not impressed with anything, and I still haven't seen a video or performance yet. The shit don't make sense at all. The album is so disjointed. I already heard 4 out of the 12 songs on the album. Must of y'all have moved into Stan territory. I refuse! I'm a fan, but a real fan gives real criticism. Throw this whole era away.
I didnt listen and dont plan to. I hope she gets her accolades from those higher ups who gives awards n such.
6:57 she didn’t that’s the same version that you can always stream the music video adds a bridge that isn’t in the regular song
damn... not his lack of media literacy!!!
Why you ain’t just react to the album.
I like Normani, but Dopamine is not an R&B. I call it a "Hipster" album. And I call it that because it's like pseudo-R&B that's putting trap and hip hop in the forefront and her she's not putting her vocals full forward really on it other than a few songs. Honestly, I was disappointed. Recycled trap beats where most songs sound the same and ratchet lyrics. Normani is and can be so much more than that.
It’s maximalist RnB. Xtra layers, more provocative, moody, and momental rather than traditional RnB which centers around mostly storytelling, and others more traditional RnB jams focusing on vocal agility and Eros/Agape style lyricism.
I liked the album but it didn’t blow my socks off 🤷🏽♀️
