Fun fact: my Dad got to meet Beyoncé in a Beverly Hills hotel back in 2004 when she was promoting this Tommy perfume. She gifted him autographed bottles and asked about Igbo culture with (according to him) a genuine sense of wonder and love. Till this day he respects her because
Damita is INSANE! DIABOLICAL! Her ENERGY?!
She put everyone on that stage in sweats in 100 degree weather, and said we're going to give this audience A F**KING SHOW!
I will never not stan this comfortably dressed LEGEND!
Since the beginning of her career, you all have expected Normani to come out fully formed, perfect understanding of what her sound is and

right out the gate. When it comes to lighter hued young female artists? It’s always “they’re having fun, let them grow”. Smh.
I love how Normani opened the album with her sister Starrah on Big Boy and closed it with her again on backgrounds for Wild Side. What a phenomenal duo they make! And Tommy Brown, genius man! Dopamine is such a gem, gosh this was so worth the wait.
Young People interested in politics leading up to 2023, if you need to start building press and comms teams I’m volunteering myself for free. We must get out of this

She’s definitely being sarcastic 😂 Victoria is a Grammy nominated writer/producer giving that troll a little bit of the attention they crave
I love unpacking stuff and I can’t help but look at her outfit and see it represent her black rocket on the album cover. That yellow ombré at the bottom of the skirt representing flames. It’s those subtle details that make me adore

movement because it ruins their brand of Nigeria being only about jollof wars, strict parents, suya and Ankara fabric when the realities are much much harsher. Disappointed but not surprised.
Normani has LIVED. She’s a former athlete, pageant girl, competitive dancer, reality tv finalist, multi platinum girl group member AND solo musician. Don’t play with her
@MattWalshBlog
Can we talk about the irony of having a really hot chick, with sexy clothing singing for this commercial, which is pretty much the exact opposite representation of a female athlete?
What’s even more special about Normani’s new release is that the song sample, One In A Million came out the year she was born.
Wild Side is her rebirth it’s true ☝🏾
Blair Caldwell photographs Beyoncé frequently and is never tagged but we all know it’s work. He’s paid and he does his promo without entitlement. Because of this he continues to flourish in the industry
Held captive by label politics yes but she is far from unserious. She’s branched into film and tv while she waits for RCA. After hearing stories from Tinashe and Raye I think we should have some grace because of how major labels treat black women at the intersection of pop music.
Fola lived fiercely and intentionally, on her own terms. The sweetest soul! She deserves to still be here. Sending so much love and strength to her chosen family right now 🤍🤍🤍

He faces a maximum 75 years in prison.
My issue with barbs is they act like female singers must remain in factions where they cannot collaborate with anyone their fave doesn’t like. For the love of God, grow TF UP. This isn’t high school
📢 PSA: There’s nothing you’ll say about Normani that will make me angry or waver in my support for her. That talented woman is one of the most unproblematic celebrities just doing her best as a black woman navigating the murky waters of the music industry. The constant vitriol

@TNHTalk
Normani ALWAYS credits her team so if she didn’t here, it was a simple error. To call her out for services she PAID for is very nasty.
A casual reminder that THE iconic producer behind most of self titled Beyoncé, BOOTS, turned down offers from so many huge pop stars for years but was glad to work with Normani. If that doesn’t tell you anything then I don’t know what to tell ya.
