New Music: Normani Releases ‘Fair’

Normani recently released her newest single titled ‘Fair.’ It’s the single that everyone has been waiting for since the beginning of the year. 

From the album artwork to the lyrics, ‘Fair’ gives off an early 2000s type of feel, which plenty of people have enjoyed. 

‘Is it fair that you moved on?
‘Cause I swear that I haven’t
Is it right that you’ve grown
And I’m still stuck in habits?’

The simplicity in the song’s instrumentals is rather effective as they allow Normani’s voice to cut through the track. These choices speaks to the type of vulnerability that comes with voicing one’s pain after feeling betrayed in what always seemed to have been a romantic partnership. 

‘Cause I’m finding it strange
That you’re better than average
Hearts didn’t break down the middlе
Tell me how did that happen?

Later that same day, Normani took to The Jimmy Fallon Show to debut her new song. The entire production, directed by Allan Troy, certainly adds another layer to the song altogether. The singer performs in a sheer white dress with blue silk blowing in the background, providing an oceanic feel. The background coos make for an alluring break-up song.
