After years of releasing loose singles in the wake of her group Fifth Harmony’s split, Normani has recently announced her upcoming debut album titled “Dopamine” and shared a snippet of a new song.

Fans took note that the singer wiped her socials, a tactic often used by artists signaling the imminent arrival of a new era. Today, she took to Instagram to post the cover of “Dopamine,” featuring her riding a jet-black rocket against a white background. “Cryingg typing this rn. DOPAMINE THE ALBUM,” she wrote in her caption. A release date was not given.

The singer previously teased another snippet to fans on TikTok as well.

As a solo artist, Normani has consistently had several stop-starts in the years that followed. She became the first artist to sign to Keep Cool/RCA Records, and a solo album was expected to arrive shortly after. But Normani instead dropped singles here and there, including the hit “Dancing With a Stranger” alongside Sam Smith and “Love Lies” with Khalid. She’s had moderate chart success, with her Cardi B duet “Wild Side” peaking at No. 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 and her solo track “Motivation” cracking the top 40.

In 2022, Normani signaled that her debut album could be releasing shortly with the announcement that she’d signed a global publishing deal with Hipgnosis Songs Group and that new music was in the works.
