What is She Talking About? Candy Paint - Normani *Reaction*

I need answers

[@bananaguard454]

"Candy paint is a type of automotive paint that gives a car a unique, vibrant, and glossy finish. It is known for its deep, rich colors and a high level of reflectivity, making the car appear almost like candy. The paint job usually involves multiple layers: a metallic base coat, a translucent colored coat (the candy coat), and a clear coat on top. This layered process creates a depth and shimmer that changes with the light, making it highly desirable for custom car enthusiasts." Basically, she's singing her bum looks goooooood

Normani needs to promote herself. I’ve noticed with these reactions and tik toks that some ppl don’t know her and I thought they did bc of the hits she’s had and the group too or at least a familiar face that ppl would be “ oh that’s her” ok

[@jaquanl2989]

It’s a play off of the 70s song “Be Thankful for what you got” made popular by Curtis Mayfield where it describes a car. Booty = the back of the car. Diamond in the back is the way that the window was shaped in the old school Cadillacs.

Her confidence in real life doesn’t match the energy in the song. She just running her mouth lol

[@Cyceris]

Love Normani 🖤🍭

Dope shit 🚀🚀🚀

Someone else explained that when a girl is wearing a thong, all you see is the diamond above her buns. Thus, glossy butt cheeks but the diamond showing the cloth of the panties. Also Wildside is the first single from this album. She’s been on hiatus due to health of parents and Covid, but check out the WildSide music video.

I still don't know what she means by “booty candy painted with the diamond in the back”. Any of y’all have a clue?

[@dr3dr349]

probably something that will be explained in the visual lol

[@nehru2009]

"diamond in the back"
is a phrase used to describe something that is tight, off the chain, phat, pimped out, or badass . It was first referenced in a old Curtis Mayfield song of the same name. At that time, his reference was a celebration of black opulence and wealth.

[@iammorale6423]

Booty so shiny / glossy like a car boot decorated with diamonds

[@annettedelvalle1766]

Cadillac
with a diamond window in the back

[@ndo533]

"Diamond in the back, sunroof top, diggin the scene wit a gangsta lean..." is the reference, William DeVaughn

[@elijahtrenton8351]

The song is good but not great, its nice to listen to but I don't think it’s the hit she needs.

[@Cutiepotatoieeee]

Stop thinking

You Just can Say "NO MONEY" and that's a easy way to say her name, not NOR-mani but nor-MA-ni😅

[@nehru2009]

I fear this album will be as bad as Chloe's.

[@hadrianhexe9603]

yet chloe's album wasn't bad, it was just conflicting with her image at the time.

[@Theblunt99]

Worse tbh . She’s gonna flop hard
