It looks like we will finally be getting Normani‘s long-await debut solo album soon. Yesterday (February 20), the former Fifth Harmony member cleared her Instagram, hinting that a new era is imminent. Today, she revealed that the album is on the way.

Normani first started hinting at her solo album in 2018, with a tweet reading, “I have my album title y’all.” Every year since she first posted the tweet, fans resurface the message, noting how much time has passed. More than five years since the original posting, Normani quote-replied the tweet, with a link to a website appropriately called wheresthedamnalbum.com.

The website reveals a black screen, with the word “Dopamine” on the left, a mysterious logo in the center, and a date written in numerics on the right. The date, though, is constantly changing, so the release date is not currently clear. But one thing that remains constant is the year 2024 on the release date, indicating that Dopamine will, indeed, arrive at some point this year, via RCA Records.

Also on the website, fans can pre-save the album into their Spotify and Apple Music libraries. Upon pre-saving Dopamine, fans receive a special message from Normani, saying, “Can’t wait till this new music graces your ears!”

On her social pages, Normani has since shared the album cover. You can see the Dopamine artwork below.

Over the course of two-and-a-half years, Fifth Harmony was productive, releasing three albums in that time. Since Normani launched her solo career in 2018, though, she hasn’t been quite as fruitful. She’s had some big singles: 2018’s “Love Lies” with Khalid and 2019’s “Dancing With A Stranger” with Sam Smith were both top-10 hits in the US. As far as albums, though, Normani actually hasn’t released a single one.

It looks like that’s finally about to change.

Is Normani Releasing A New Album In 2024?

On X (formerly Twitter) today (February 21), Normani shared a quote-tweet of a post of hers from 2018, in which she wrote, “I have my album title y’all.” Her added text was simply a link to wheresthedamnalbum.com. The page, an official RCA website, features pre-save links and a logo flanked by two telling pieces of text. On the left is Dopamine, which is the title of her debut album (as she confirmed elsewhere, more on that in a second). On the right is a date, but the months and days are constantly changing. The year, though, stays the same, so it appears Dopamine is indeed set for a 2024 release, with an exact date to be confirmed later.

Shortly after that, she revealed the cover art, which features her wearing a bikini and riding atop a black rocket. She captioned her post, “cryingg typing this rn. DOPAMINE THE ALBUM.”

So, at long last, Normani’s debut album is finally, officially on the way, it’s called Dopamine, and it’s expected to drop in 2024.
