Normani has released the first single from her long-promised debut album. The new song, “1:59,” features Atlanta rapper Gunna. Find the new song, produced by Leathre Jackettt and Tommy Brown, below.
Along with “1:59,” Normani has shared the release date for her album Dopamine. The former Fifth Harmony singer’s first solo full-length is out June 14 via RCA. In a recent interview with Jasmine Fox-Suliaman for Who What Wear, Normani said, “The album feels like liberation, like a season of freedom. Not just because the record is finally coming out, but because it’s a celebration of everything I have been through to get to this moment. During this process, I heard God say to me, ‘Trust me. I know you’re afraid, but trust me anyway. Dare to trust me anyway. Now is the time.’”
Gunna shared his latest album, A Gift & a Curse, in June 2023. He plans to release another full-length, One of Wun, soon, telling XXL’s Vanessa Satten of the new project: “This album is still showing growth. Showing me growing into a man because I’ve been more disciplined. I’ve been tapping into different things. I’ve been living in a different space. I feel like you’ll hear that in the music. Me being creative and tapping with my voice, doing sounds, doing different melodies. I just feel like you’re gon’ feel me evolve.”
