I'm hearing April 26th, but apparently not 100% settled. We should have never doubted @deleted

Announced an album with no relevant information. Only to announce the first single a month later on a random Saturday with the release date of said single being another month away.
lol.

For as great of a dancer as Normani is, why does everything lean towards midtempo or sleep sleep? Give us a bop, sis. Please. Use those dance moves in a visual.

The song is HOT! Obvs it is not that different from what has been made public, but it's really mellow, super sexy. Even if it's not a hit, it's a pretty solid song. Oh, btw, album comens May 17th ;) Exciting! I'm glad she decided to go the R&B route. I feel like she'll find bigger success/longevity on Urban/Rhythmic radio with the odd crossover to Pop/HAC. "Wild Side" is still a total bop and Urban/Rhythmic radio really helped it to have some longevity on the Hot 100! I hope she films a killer music video for the song!

The album’s really dropping three weeks after the single? 👀 I don’t oppose this strategy at all if it means we finally get the damn thing.

From what I've heard "Candy Paint" seems to be the actual hit. Releasing a R&B lead single is probably more like playing safe and ensuring that her core market (Urban) will be checking her album out.

Wonder if the album will still come on the 17th now that Billie is dropping on that day?

really hoping she doesn't push this back because of billie. she was never going to be in contention for the no. 1 spot like billie will be but i think she definitely wants her moment and doesn't want to be overshadowed

I’m not too surprised if it’s not the 17th anymore. That is such a loaded week, Billie, Zayn, Twenty One Pilots are all releasing on that date.
Know what I think would be a cute date? May 31st! It aligns with Normani’s birthday!

If they’re hoping for a big or even mid week opening, that ship sailed long ago.

She just went on live and played a snippet of a new song. It’s uptempo and said “I know what you guys want”.
I wonder if there’s been a single change or a dual release?.

I think it was smart to "push back" the album from May 17 (the non-properly announced release date) to June 14. However, if I remember correctly, June 14 was also tipped as the release date of C,XOXO, so I guess this means that the latter will be delayed too.

No reason both can't come out 6/14. Totally different audiences.

At least it's gonna come out! I'm enjoying "1:59" so I'm definitely looking forward to it.
