Normani and Calvin Harris just dropped TWO new tracks, and you can listen here
The glory days of Fifth Harmony may be over, but the days of Normani as a solo act are just heating up. The 22-year-old singer dropped a two-song EP produced by Calvin Harris today, October 22nd, and it will make you want to take a quick (six minute, 14 second) dance break at work.
Billboard describes the first song, “Checklist,” as a “Caribbean-tinged R&B-dance heater” with verses from WizKid. The second song, “Slow Down,” is a pop ballad, but it’s definitely still upbeat enough to dance to.

Fans of the singer are tweeting her praises.

This EP follows Normani’s debut solo single, “Love Lies” with Khalid, which she dropped back in February. The singer has said her eventual debut album will be “going back to the music that I grew up with” in Houston and New Orleans, but will also be influenced by her six-year stint in Fifth Harmony.
