Excited about that film and I like both Khalid and Normani, so I'll check this for sure.

I can't even tell you which one of the four Normani is. All five of them blended together as faceless and nameless to me until Camila decided to go solo.
But, I low-key stan Khalid now, so I'm perched.

This girl could do everything. And yes! Khalid is a great choice for collaboration. I'm hyped for this.

I love this after first listen. Normani sounds better than she's in 5H.

It's cute, but nothing special. I feel like it could go a bit harder in the production with the percussion and I wish the melody was a bit more interesting, but it's not bad.
If it were anyone other than Khalid, though, I probably wouldn't care. I love his voice.

I really like this it's super smooth and chill, this type of sound works on Normani Normani though would probably slay harder Urban songs
I also like Khalid a lot between this, Silence, & The Ways. I wasn't crazy over Location & YDB, both being a bit boring imo But he's working his way on me with the 3 aforementioned songs

I know this is going for that minimal sound but the production veers dangerously close to making the song sound unfinished. The bass/percussion needs to go harder so that it's more pronounced when it drops out and then comes back in. But structurally and melodically it's on point, and Normani and Khalid both sound great.
Ok this is growing on me really quickly. I just love how smooth their voices sound, and they blend together so well.

This is cute. But I couldn't get over the fact that the chorus sounds exactly like Post Malone's 'Big Lie' - it HAS to be a sample like wow No problem though as I love that song

Yeah I'm living for Normani now She was my favorite in 5H with Lauren, but she stepped ahead of Lauren once she started killing choreo.
This just adds more to it, I'm loving the song so much so far

I’m very pleased to hear that Normani has more personality in her voice as a solo than she did with 5th Harmony. That points to good things for her future.
The song is very cool. Definitely a grower in a good way.

Song is a cute little bop, but the video really elevates it. Normani came hard.
