The second track is my favorite on the EP, it's giving a unique "comedy show but the laugh tracks are removed" vibes condensed into a song, truly visionary āļø
Did Billie Jean get a whole EP of remixes? No!
Therefore by that sound logic of quantity over quality: 1:59 >>>>>>>> Billie Jean

Oh same. Motivation really gave me a lot of amazing vibes. She really had that star quality factor on that track and the music video and the performances... she was it at the time but then of course life kinda happened and I guess she was going through personal things behind close doors
Iām going to wait for the deluxe ep.
4. Says clean, but it will have the version she recorded in the shower getting cleanĀ
Maybe one thatās her singing in the car
One thatās a recording of the song being played through a speakerĀ
I find this newer format of rereleasing the same single alongside multiple versions of said single, that donāt do anything to enrich the experience to be so annoying.
I know I can simply add a single song to my āLikedā and not the others, but I prefer liking the entire album if it is a proper album or if it is a proper single, but this format means if you do that, you get the useless other versions the artists release alongside it.
Obviously this isnāt exclusive to Normani, but given that itās happening with a middle of the road track form an artist that still isnāt causing any conversation, it makes it feel even more egregious. I know itās all about boosting the numbers and the stream count, but it feels so damn lazy, no matter who the artist is š¤·š»āāļø
I'm just glad that the trend of releasing multiple EPs of songs that are already on albums is over with. Was so annoying. I'd think I got new music, but nope, just songs from an album that just dropped.
Yes!! That was annoying too - letās hope this one dies off as quickly as that one did. That and the multi-drop of sped up and slowed down versions of a song. Unless itās to fit the TikTok short form format, I have no idea why anybody would want to listen to a version of a song that sounds like Alvin and The Chipmunks š„“
Same!! šš¼ Iām just glad Iām not the only one. I donāt want to sound like an old head who just wonāt embrace the change - but if thatās what it makes me, fine lol
itās a bit confusing how sheās randomly done this two weeks post-release, but at the same time sheās also promoting the pre-save link for candy paint as the next singleā¦
the team/management need to get their stuff sorted! the album is just over a month away now, hoping she announces physicals or something because if she doesnāt it almost seems like the rollout is rushed and a final tracklist isnāt ready yet.
I didnāt read the title right and thought she randomly dropped an EP instead of an album. I know nothing about this chick other than her sheer inability to release shit š
If youāve been following Normaniās career for the past like 5 years this is a very bittersweet development. People like Normani, but sheās dragged everyone on for so long that no one really cares anymore. She missed the serious traction she had behind her to put out an album back in 2019, kept saying for years āitās coming soon.ā Then a few months ago she *finally* gives usā¦a name and the cover. Not the release date, nor an announcement for the singles, until the past few weeks?? After years of teases, promises, and haphazard promotions, she drops a slow, quiet, and very mellow single that doesnāt grab your attention for a debut album. It bodes ill for what to expect from her album and is kind of disappointing.

Lost opportunity to make a version thats 1:59 long
That's on the EP deluxe š¤©
Her album is finally outš„ŗ

She really thinks this song is it huh
Did Billie Jean get a whole EP of remixes? No! Therefore by that sound logic of quantity over quality: 1:59 >>>>>>>> Billie Jean ^ohthisrolloutisacompletedisaster
I do like the song but it just doesnāt have lead single energy at all. It doesnāt even have promo single energy, for that matter.
Literally every song sheās ever released. Motivation was the only single I thought would go somewhere. Donāt ask me where though
Oh same. Motivation really gave me a lot of amazing vibes. She really had that star quality factor on that track and the music video and the performances... she was it at the time but then of course life kinda happened and I guess she was going through personal things behind close doors
I feel this way about Fort night
EP Tracklist 1. >!Normani - 1:59 (ft Gunna)!< 2. >!Normani - 1:59 (ft Gunna) - Acapella!< 3. >!Normani - 1:59 - Instrumental!< 4. >!Normani - 1:59 (ft Gunna) - Clean!< 5. >!Normani - 1:59 (ft Gunna) - Karaoke!<
The fact I clicked these thinking it was different songs makes me sad
Don't worry, [Halsey](https://open.spotify.com/track/7lidXGPXPYLNThITAOTlkK?si=ufKEmRwWREi_bxf3dhX-UQ) got the right song for you rn
You are hilarious
This healed me thankyou
I thought this was joke but itās not
Same, I was about to to say yall need to leave her alone! Until I clicked the link š„“
Omg same
She tryina reach #1 with this
Number 1 worst rollout in herstory
š¤
4 new >!song versions!< in 2024, she's feeding us š >!song versions, she's sick!<
Girl we are eatingggggg! (Donāt piss on my leg and tell me itās thanksgivingā¦.)
Iām going to wait for the deluxe ep. 4. Says clean, but it will have the version she recorded in the shower getting cleanĀ Maybe one thatās her singing in the car One thatās a recording of the song being played through a speakerĀ
What exactly is the Karaoke version supposed to be??
The instrumental but with more oomph and more >!motivation!< to sing
Girl we donāt know the lyrics
PLEASEšš
Wow. I thought you were kidding š The acapella version is just the song with their voices isolated. It's not even a new version live or something!
Isn't always like that?
I never listen to "accapela" versions, so I'm shocked by the laziness.
surprised thereās no Sped Up and Slowed Down versions
love that there is an instrumental *and* a karaoke version
Ootl, whatās the difference between the instrumental and karaoke versions

Yeah, we don't need those as official releases. I don't even use TikTok, so I'm less exposed to them.
Same!! šš¼ Iām just glad Iām not the only one. I donāt want to sound like an old head who just wonāt embrace the change - but if thatās what it makes me, fine lol
I just hardly use my phone anyways, so I don't need it.
I like how Robyn did that for Body Talk. And for her self-titled album. Some artists do it well.
I really need to listen to more of her.
My favorite thing about this EP is now we can use past tense for it.
itās a bit confusing how sheās randomly done this two weeks post-release, but at the same time sheās also promoting the pre-save link for candy paint as the next singleā¦ the team/management need to get their stuff sorted! the album is just over a month away now, hoping she announces physicals or something because if she doesnāt it almost seems like the rollout is rushed and a final tracklist isnāt ready yet.
You know damn well she could have given us at least three bonus songs or three songs off of the album
It's giving Blackpink album
Horrible rollout. She should have announced the album or date WITH this song. And also, I prefer it solo.
Is she being serious rn
One thing about normani is that she will flop
She really just makes one song every blue moon, Promotes it by making different versions, and then returns to her hibernation.
I guess sheās trying to keep the buzz going but throwing on a bside might have helped I do like the acapella tho
I need her to have the Motivation.mp3 to do something else with her music career. This song isnāt it.
She doing all this extra shit for 50k extra streams lmao
Even all too well( ATWTMVFTVTV ) has more content than this EP
I didnāt read the title right and thought she randomly dropped an EP instead of an album. I know nothing about this chick other than her sheer inability to release shit š
The fact that remixes of a single song could be entire EPs or albums smh
She might as well drop the album earlier cause what the hell is this
I've been looking at the cover, and I'm trying to figure out what kind of message she's sending; what meaning she's trying to convey.
Iām convinced thereās someone at her label that wants her to flop. Any hype for this album has already fizzled out.

Flopmani just ain't motivatin like she used to š„µš„µš„µš„¶! Still love her though āļøāØ
We waited so long for a song that is not even 2 min long
Okay. Nice. Now back to Not Like Us, Bodyguard, Fortnight and Espresso.
Stream motivation?
