Her Fallon performance was fun and she sounded so much better than she does on the album version (which makes the studio vocals all the more baffling to me).
This sounds like a hit to me, but it's not really what the masses are consuming atm. So it may be a slow burner.

Wild Side debuted higher on: US Spotify US Apple Music US iTunes US YouTube The only thing Camila won in the US is a radio deal... really now ? A latin song vs R&B song comparison in USA? your forgot something..wild side has cardi b the Queen of rap after two back to back number one hits ,and it's an R&B song so of course it would have perform better on streaming from the beginning.. Really? I thought Camila did pretty well with this type of music since Havana and Senorita both hit #1. I don't remember the last time a female led R&B song went number one. Cardi's last two collabs with bigger names than Normani peaked at 71 and 82 to be fair Maybe Top 40 radio should start playing more R&B though since that's more popular than this brand of pop according to you.

"Latin songs don't do well on streaming" in the same year telepatia, Yonaguni, DAKITI, and Todo De Ti were big streaming hits IN THE US

Wait so you can say Normani won't do well after just one day of tracking but we can't do the same for Camila? And Camila is doing worse. That's the catcher. Normani is #41 on Itunes, Camila is #11, Normani is #69 on Spofify, Camila is #34. Normani is #42 on Mediabase, Camila is #35, Looks like Camila is winning.

I liked the vocals on the live performance a lot more than the studio version for some reason.

It's alright and the video is fun but I'm still not sure what she's bringing to the table as an artist? Hum This is the most tropical Latin song weโve heard in eons as a main pop single. Itโs not like Despacito or Rompe that crossed over from Latin. Itโs been a long time. And Iโm loving it! Plus sheโs owning the whole telenovela character attitude in her music. Iโm not even talking about the video (we couldnโt watch it today), but in terms of image and vocals. Sheโs becoming a Latin pop artist ala Estefan and I think thatโs a great positioning for her. If this song is as successful as Iโm hoping, sheโs carved a good and different lane Yeah TBD I guess. Reserving full judgment until the album drops, I just donโt feel like she has much of an identity beyond โoh this sound smashed before so weโll go with thisโ. That said - holy fuck that radio debut, wasnโt expecting that at all.

One thing a Camila thread will be is messy. Also radio argument doesn't work because DGY had a radio deal and WS didn't.

Normani is #42 on Mediabase, Camila is #35, Looks like Camila is winning. Take your embarrassing stan glasses off. This is Normaniโs second week. Why donโt you compare it to last week when Normani WAS #1 on iTunes and debuted at #32 on Spotify WITHOUT being on ANY Spotify playlisting? And besides, Camila got a radio deal AND shoved in TTH along many other Spotify playlists so itโs totally unnecessary for you to try mock the dip Normaniโs having right now. Shall we also compare their YouTube and Apple Music since you purposefully didnโt mention them?

Honestly I think she is a much better live performer than a studio recorder
Her vocals for most of her songs just sound right live especially stuff like this and Cry For Me which do have a bit of a roughness to them that while it doesn't take me out of the songs it is noticeable if you pay attention to it over the production.
The live performance parts even holds true in that Havana's chart run really began getting traction with her Fallon performance getting a lot of positive buzz.

You want to take off those stan glasses and try that again? www.last.fm/user/austinthecat_/library/music/Camila+CabelloNot everyone who criticizes a song you love is a "hater." In fact, most people who will criticize anything you ever like are not "haters." They just have different opinions than you do. lol, ok. A true serve, just like this song and video. Flawless live performance, too.
