Normani Teases ‘Dopamine’ Album With ‘Candy Paint’ Trailer

In a teaser for her upcoming Dopamine album, Normani portrays a phone-sex operator who picks up for a breathy, shadowy man in a phone booth.

“Hello, Hotline 159,” she says. “Yes, here to satisfy your deepest, darkest, wildest desires. No rules, no restrictions, straight dopamine.” While she seems fit for the job, even answering emails while taking the call as her Gunna-featuring song “1:59” plays, she probably could use a standing desk since the latex outfit looks constrictive for when she crouches to type. Later in the clip, though, she shows how flexible she is both literally and lyrically.

The main course, however, is a teaser of “Candy Paint.” “I can make it boom-boom, clap, like I’m drumming,” she raps at one point. “I can make it, make it hit the race if I want it,” she raps at another. “Baby, I could take your place if you want it.” The full context of those rhymes and the mystery of all the rocket-ship imagery throughout the two-minute clip (oh wait, it’s about sex) will be revealed when the album comes out on June 14.

Dopamine will be the first solo album from the former Fifth Harmony member, and even she knows it’s kind of overdue since that group went on indefinite hiatus in 2018 and she’s been releasing singles for years. So she bought the best domain name to tease the LP: WheresTheDamnAlbum.com. The site has links that will help you pre-save it on Apple Music and Spotify to see if Dopamine really does come out on June 14 and whether or not Normani decided to redirect the website to HeresTheDamnAlbum.com while the domain is still available.
