Normani returns with new single 'Fair'

Today global superstar Normani returns with new single ‘Fair’. The song is her first release since massive hit ‘Wild Side’, featuring Cardi B in July last year, a song that has attracted over 100 million streams on Spotify alone.

The song is a gorgeous, mid-tempo R&B track with a hint of electronica. Normani’s vocals are as rich and expressive as ever and there is a calming warmth about the song which is hypnotic. In contrast to the good feels the song generates, the lyrics tell a darker story of a relationship that has collapsed with Normani struggling to recover. “Is it fair that you’ve moved on / Cause I swear that I haven’t / Is it right that you’ve grown / When I’m still stuck in habits”, she sings. It is a significant maturation in her sound and she carries it off with complete conviction.

“This song really captures me in one of my most vulnerable moments,” she said of the song. “Sharing this record makes me uncomfortable because you have never really seen me in this light. Definitely aware that you might feel like you don’t know much about me but that’s only because it’s what makes me feel protected. I am really forcing myself to let go here. This is huge for me and hopefully this piece of art resonates. Love is beautiful yet so soooo terrifying.” She also revealed on Instagram that more music is coming and joked some traditional Normani bangers will be in the mix, saying “Ohhhh and believe me the uptempo shit is coming lmaooo”.

After storming the world as part of chart topping band Fifth Harmony, Normani has proven to one of this generations most talented and creative performers. Her first solo single ‘Motivation’, co-written by Ariana Grande, was a massive global hit with over 300 million streams to date, and she has since gone on support Grande on her Sweetener world tour as well as perform at the Lollapalooza festival and the Billboard Music Awards. Normani is an artist who is only going to get bigger and better and if ‘Fair’ is anything to go by, new music from her is going to be one of this year’s highlight.

‘Fair’ is out now RCA Records/Sony Music. You can download and stream here.
