@@belencanizares8161 so do most singers now a days. The vmas has always been about visuals not vocals. If you want completely live vocals go to a battle of the bands at your local rock club. Most awards show performances these days have pre-recorded vocals.
I wasn’t gone watch if they didn’t decide to let her perform. That choreography is giving me life and a flashback of the greater time of music, dancing, natural beauty of the 90s &00s
She is criminally underrated and it pisses me off how she’s not a bigger artist. I want her to have a blow up as big as Doja Cat, Meg, and Chloe x Halle. She sings, dances, gorgeous looks, and has amazing personality. The full package that the industry won't let her deliver!!
Honestly tho, she may have a great personality but as a fan I really don’t see it. I know she can sing, dance, she has the talent but she doesn’t connect with her audience. Of course we never truly know these stars but she has to start marketing herself… Edit: “start” to “stars”
I definitely agree she needs to work on marketing herself and getting out there in the public more (i.e. social media) bc that's a huge part of building fan engagement these days. Meg, Chloe x Halle, Doja Cat grew huge fan bases so quickly and loyally in part of the effort they put into personal live streams and social media antics. Doja Cat was a live streaming queen and look how far it's taken her. I want Normani to have a big win and I hope she realizes that she can/needs to give her fans more than just music to root for and we'll support it. @@coquigirl0789
The fact that RCA records is not taking her seriously is just stupid! Normani has a voice that is not like others who have gone mainstream. And she has a great vision of what performances looks good and how to pull it off.

HERE, HERE. Some other channels try to be shady and say it's not giving, but people don't understand simple elegance is a powerful thing. And the fact she pulled this off in a WEEK....give this girl her props
@@nehemiahgary5548it very much was not lmao. like it’s so clear that she’s lip-synching. her volume and steadiness doesn’t match the dance moves she’s doing. plus there is plenty of spots where her mic is moved from her mouth and it sounds the exact same which is almost impossible cuz she’s doing a lot of dance moves that even beyonce would be tired from doing and not be able to give good vocals.
The VMAs really thought little of her. She ended being the MOST TALKED ABOUT performer of the night. Even stayed on top of Trending Topics on Twitter. You can’t deny her star power! 🤍
The more I watch it, The more I get it. I’m finally understanding her as an artist. People keep saying she needs to find her sound. But she can’t be boxed in. She can do whatever music she wants to. Pop, R&B, Soul, hip hop. Etc
Yeah I feel like she has always had a very distinct style that transcends genre. But just because it’s more understated and smooth people try to disregard her. She keeps outdoing herself I’m so excited for her
The best performance of the night, with only a transparent box as a prop. Normani is beyond captivating on stage, it’s obvious that she puts a lot of thought into EVERYTHING that she does. Nothing about this performance was boring, people are just used to be distracted by other nonsense. They don’t know when a true performer is on stage, if there aren’t flashing lights, props, and upbeat music. Mani and those amazing dancers filled the stage with crisp movements. I didn’t breathe or blink until the performance was over. Every time I see her perform, my eyes never leave the screen. Her whole demeanor changes when she’s on stage. That’s how you know she’s a natural performer, always poised and classy with a dash of sexy. I’ve seen her perform live twice and her mic was always ON.
I saw her opening for Ariana Grande on the first night of the Sweetener Tour and everything you said was spot on. She is electrifying like no others I’ve seen.
I can't express in words how much I love and admire this woman, she deserves all the success in the world for years the industry didn't have such a talented and complete artist. mani understand you are legendary
This performance was PERFECTION. Her breath control, her dancing, her singing, her focus, the outfit, the payed homage to the 90’s and 2000 artists it’s inspired by. Normani baby, you are a absolute POWER HOUSE 🔥 unfuckwitable 🤌🏾 wish her nothing but more success ! Not many can say they can do what she does !
NORMANI HAD THE BEST PERFORMANCE OF THE NIGHT! Actually executed her choreography. Blessed us with her whistle tone note - BABY GOT RANGE. Trended no.1 worldwide at one point. Best dressed on the red carpet. Now THAT'S how you rise to an occasion. Proud fan. 💕
@@ArvinJWilliams Yet here you are quick to comment as soon as she posts her performance that you didn’t like… how about you go look at something you do like instead of trying to bring other people down cause your own life sucks.
YOOO the videographer for her performance (and the whole show) was terrible. Like the had the worst shots of her. Still, she looked amazing which is a true testament to her ability.
Holy shit, her vocals were INCREDIBLE in this, so stable even with all of the demanding choreography. And the call back to Janet Jackson at the end!! So amazing
1:05 - 1:07 the mic is away from her mouth but the vocal still sound the same? Hmmmm.... Normani is an amazing performance but why should she use pre-record audio? she doesn't need it. she literally can sing LIVE..Come on..overall I love this performance.
I love how out of the rest of the disbanded group, Normani has been the one to take the VMA stage multiple times and show case her raw talent. Absolute Queen.
This performance made me breakdown in tears , to honestly see such a humble woman . And her being the the times of 2021 and making us feel like we in 97’ it’s just amazing seeing the futuristic Aaliyah undertones TLC sliver from no scrubs. To Janet. Also being an artist of your OWN! It touches in a real , “ these are my icons . This is what they taught me” really opened doors and also Normani will open doors for others too .
Even though she had no time to prepare because of short notice, not even time for an elaborate set design and lights like the other artist SHE AND HER DANCERS KILLLLLLLLLLLT IT OMG I'M SO PROUD OF HER SHE IS A TRUE PROFESSIONAL AT SUCH A YOUNG AGE!!

The way she use to look into the camera like she was having sex lol I think truely think this is her and is about to elevate like nobody’s bussiness 🙏🏻
Is anyone else mesmerized by the opening number? The intro instrumental is STUNNING. I want it to be a piece of a song on her upcoming album so badly. Normani's voice is like a chameleon; she can literally do any type of genre.
Normani was the best performance of the night hands down. This is the star quality we have been missing and needing for a long time. Thank You for being You, Mani!
ALLL off this in a week??? no cause Normani is that girl, everyone was meh but Normani brought it FULLLY...BEST PERFORMANCE dont lie...and yass she was live
2:32 vocal run is on point, I mean every single performance of Normani has a good vocal run .It's getting better ,she has improved a lot. She has a wide range, she better use it.
I still can’t believe she wasn’t going to perform at first . We would of missed this Iconic performance and I’m so glad the Nation and GP fought for her to perform. We love you Normani 🤍
She performed because Nicki dropped her spot not because of her fans.. it’s cute to imagine that that’s the reason why she got to perform but if the show is booked, it’s booked. She wasn’t getting in without Nicki opting out
@@lilyvega7831 stop feeding your little fantasies babe. Go worry about nicki spreading anti vax propaganda instead of being under a NORMANI performance. The amount of artists who were announced AFTER NORMANI yet you don’t want to talk about that. Nicki is about to go to jail for harassing her husband’s victim: WORRY ABOUT THAT B
The part with her and Teyana isn’t that bad as everybody was making it seem like, the performance overall it was actually very great. The choreography was on point along with her vocals.
Normani really is talented. The vocals and the dance.... Ti at the end was on the wild side for 15secs ... I don't think it deserved that much out rage. She deserves more than she is getting from the industry.
I hav bin praying she makes it up to this real level ...thx to Normani..u really made it lov yah...indeed they shud give her more than a million pounds
Only reason I can undetrstand SOME of the rage is because if it was Lil Nas, he would have been bashed left & right. So double standard is real. However-and I really need the people to get this-IT'S NOT HER FAULT.
@@joshuabauman1431 they definitely are. You can clearly hear when she’s out of breath and her voice over the prerecorded track. But to the untrained ear, I guess it sounds like lipsync

This isn't even the first time I've seen you hate on Normani videos. Sweetie it's ok to admit that you're fan
@@user-vf2gp1ts3e Sweetie it's ok to admit that you're obsessed and a fan. This is my 4th time seeing you comment in Normani videos. It's safe to assume you're a Stan
I’m so happy she took her time because she’s really cultivating her own style that is so needed. It shines even as she references people as iconic as Aaliyah and Janet. Her sexuality is expressed in such a sleek, clean, creative way. And the vocals are just plain pretty. I’m in love lol
Normani delivered a polished, smooth, cool and professional choreography! Whistle Registry was also a treat! Thanks to the fans and artists that stand with Normani to make this happen! Great Job, Normani!👏🏾🥰💐😎

She sung LIVE and had one of if not THEE best performance of the night.
Pre recorded parts + the mic stays on to allow breathing to be heard and the artist to talk. It's not actually fully live..but the mic is left on. Beyonce does it great. That's all it is....
Normani absolutely ATE that stage!! Killing her choreo and delivering crystal clear vocals AT THE SAME TIME!! Y'all know that's an elite class of performance. Shout out to some of the world's best dancers for truly supporting this Princess. And that incredible tribute to Janet in this 20th Anniversary of the All For You tour. I simply cannot deal.

Es que de verdad Normani es una A-R-T-I-S-T-A, jamás me cansaré de decir como es de las mejores en la industria en este momento. Eres grande mi chiquita
Normani KILLED this performance!!! She literally was the best of the night. Also, the MIC was ON!!! Normani you inspire me sooo much and I can't wait until the album drops as well as your 1st tour dates. Edit: Oh wow! Thanks for all the likes. I think this may be my first popular comment. However, to all those saying that the vocals were "pre-recorded" please STOP because it was not. My bestie actually was there in the audience at the VMA show and she confirmed that Normani was singing LIVE with backing tracks (as were most of the VMA performers). Also, if you notice Normani actually messed up the second chorus and sand "we can't just keep taking about it" twice. She didn't pre-record the lyrics wrong. She was SINGING. Oh btw: Here is video EVERYONE should watch. The LIVE vocals of her MIC feed: th-cam.com/video/n3NvSuYDBdc/w-d-xo.html

@@BlaQSheep maybe we’re just seeing the real chlöe for the first time
Is anyone else mesmerized by the opening number? The intro instrumental is STUNNING. I want it to be a piece of a song on her upcoming album so badly. Normani's voice is like a chameleon; she can literally do any type of genre.
yESS ik right it’s so mysterious & just giving u that she bout to fuck it up vibe 😂
SAME ! Her vocal and music arrangements was everything I hoped for and more !! Praying she’s bringing that to her album
th-cam.com/video/uD2w8ij2zMA/w-d-xo.html
The whole live arrangement is beautiful
Was saying the exact same thing. This is uncanny.
I'm a sucker for an instrumental. It gives Interlude or opening song on the album.
This is giving Janet Jackson & TLC. love it
I watch this over and over and over again. I can't get enough of this Wild Side🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥love you gurl #Normani
It’s her paying homage to TWO ICONIC QUEENS! Miss Aaliyah and Miss Jackson (if ya nasty) 🙃🔥👑 LETS GO NORMANI!!!!!
m.th-cam.com/video/AG9pgwyVRas/w-d-xo.html
When they say R&B will never be the same , show em this 🤷🏽♀️🔥
Yaad Queen speak the true it never left us
That's pop. Tf you black uncultured
I can watch her dance all day it’s so satisfying and relaxes me
Her voice is so angelic
Normani was the best performance of the night hands down. This is the star quality we have been missing and needing for a long time. Thank You for being You, Mani!
It was chloe, she ate and left no crumbs. NORMANI was ok
@@davtapcam Good for you, we have our opinions too. The best performance from Normani and she ate left no crumbs but Chloe was ok tho lol
@David please let people have their own opinions. Geez! A lot of people felt like Normani had the best performance of the night.
@@davtapcam no it was Normani but I love Chole!
@@davtapcam no Chile chloe was messy all over the place, and the hypersexuality, gosh don't Americans know how to dance. My gardh
ALLL off this in a week??? no cause Normani is that girl, everyone was meh but Normani brought it FULLLY...BEST PERFORMANCE dont lie...and yass she was live
I loved your reaction to normani so much i love you
i actually think it was more like 4 days preparation 2 days rehearsal 😬 imagine if mani was originally booked and had the time everyone else did 😮💨
She is incredible
ALDRINE?????? I love your reaction to this and now I'm seeing you here a real stan
@@jaysiannaa she'd have them gagged
Whewww!!! She killed this!!
She’s way too underrated, smh!! She’s incredibly TALENTED, gorgeous and knows how to put on a great show💯👏🏻🙌🏻
2:32 vocal run is on point, I mean every single performance of Normani has a good vocal run .It's getting better ,she has improved a lot. She has a wide range, she better use it.
of course is on point she got hella auto tune and playback
@Kordei - ? how do u know I only talk about her. this is the first time I commented
@Kordei - are we supposed to just ignore that she's very clearly heavily auto-tuned
Lol yes she used auto tune but guess what? She can sing without it just the same. she’s dancing for like 8 minutes.
@@aishx8065 i know she can, I used to be a harmonizer. I don't get why they do that do cause I wanna hear her voice
I still can’t believe she wasn’t going to perform at first . We would of missed this Iconic performance and I’m so glad the Nation and GP fought for her to perform. We love you Normani 🤍
She performed because Nicki dropped her spot not because of her fans.. it’s cute to imagine that that’s the reason why she got to perform but if the show is booked, it’s booked. She wasn’t getting in without Nicki opting out
@@lilyvega7831 not true at all, nicki was never confirmed in the first place. she got to perform because of the blacklash mtv got for not booking her.
@@lilyvega7831 stop feeding your little fantasies babe. Go worry about nicki spreading anti vax propaganda instead of being under a NORMANI performance. The amount of artists who were announced AFTER NORMANI yet you don’t want to talk about that. Nicki is about to go to jail for harassing her husband’s victim: WORRY ABOUT THAT B
@Lauri London anti-vaxx has nothing to do with race but okayyy lmaooo make it all about "black women" getting targeted or whatever ig
@@lilyvega7831 she performed because Lorde backed out of her being VMA performance
I can’t even count how many times I rewatched this…obsessed! 😄
this performance is fire!
This was the BEST PERFORMANCE of the evening! Normani is extremely talented!

This entire production and the sound brought me back to the early 90's hiphop RNB vibe!
Sounds like a Janet Jackson early 2000's album too!
Same for me. The 1st time I heard this song I was thinking to Aaliyah song's by Missy Elliott 🔥🔥🔥
Control voice Is amazing i can't believe this woman on fire 🔥🔥🔥
She’s amazing 🥲
The part with her and Teyana isn’t that bad as everybody was making it seem like, the performance overall it was actually very great. The choreography was on point along with her vocals.
Omg whoo said it was bad😩 had me grippin my sheets
@@sabrinavibez1957 rightttt
What vocals? 🌚
@@Ciarawilson Are you trying to say she can’t sing?
@@Ciarawilson Why are you deaf? sleep well
Normani really is talented. The vocals and the dance.... Ti at the end was on the wild side for 15secs ... I don't think it deserved that much out rage. She deserves more than she is getting from the industry.
I hav bin praying she makes it up to this real level ...thx to Normani..u really made it lov yah...indeed they shud give her more than a million pounds
Lol vocals are not remotely live
Only reason I can undetrstand SOME of the rage is because if it was Lil Nas, he would have been bashed left & right. So double standard is real. However-and I really need the people to get this-IT'S NOT HER FAULT.
@@joshuabauman1431 lipsync
@@joshuabauman1431 they definitely are. You can clearly hear when she’s out of breath and her voice over the prerecorded track. But to the untrained ear, I guess it sounds like lipsync
She has a beautiful voice, amazing presentation, and great stage presence 💖 and those whistle notes!
I cant stop watching this.
The fact that she prepared all this in literally ONE WEEK is insane. We're witnessing a coming up of an icon and a legend y'all. Stand up!!!
The fact that this was prepared in one week really shows…
@@user-vf2gp1ts3e you’re clearly staying up to date with her. Who’s delusional here?
@@user-vf2gp1ts3e pls get outta here before I drag your unwashed ass Joe. You really don't want that.
@@user-vf2gp1ts3e irrelevant? 😂😂 We talking about the same Normani that got praises from literal legends in the music industry,the same Normani that had the best performance at VMA?💀 You're so obsessed with her so much so that you search her videos,watch them, and comment on them. This isn't even the first time I've seen you hate on Normani videos. Sweetie it's ok to admit that you're fan
@@user-vf2gp1ts3e Sweetie it's ok to admit that you're obsessed and a fan. This is my 4th time seeing you comment in Normani videos. It's safe to assume you're a Stan
I’m so happy she took her time because she’s really cultivating her own style that is so needed. It shines even as she references people as iconic as Aaliyah and Janet. Her sexuality is expressed in such a sleek, clean, creative way. And the vocals are just plain pretty. I’m in love lol
she gets it!
90s vibe so lovely
Normani delivered a polished, smooth, cool and professional choreography! Whistle Registry was also a treat! Thanks to the fans and artists that stand with Normani to make this happen! Great Job, Normani!👏🏾🥰💐😎

3:27 another damn breath into the mf mic
3:31 the mic is on + HOT but you can here the auto tune that was used (futuristic effect)
3:35 that mic hit the mf floor
please stop coming on beyoncé’s internet and disrespecting normani, her talent, and abilities if anyone deserves their flowers it’s her. She sung LIVE and had one of if not THEE best performance of the night.
This!!!!!! But they don't hear you though!
PERIOD
Her pre recorded version was breathing 😳 😔 😭
Pre recorded parts + the mic stays on to allow breathing to be heard and the artist to talk. It's not actually fully live..but the mic is left on. Beyonce does it great. That's all it is....
PERIOD
3:18 had me shook! Damn, she can sing!
Giving what only SHE could bring. No one is doing it like she can and I can’t get enough of this performance 🥰💫🔥
She has to be one of the best performers of all time!!!
Normani absolutely ATE that stage!! Killing her choreo and delivering crystal clear vocals AT THE SAME TIME!! Y'all know that's an elite class of performance. Shout out to some of the world's best dancers for truly supporting this Princess. And that incredible tribute to Janet in this 20th Anniversary of the All For You tour. I simply cannot deal. Normani left me spellbound.
Look...
she lip synced
Crystal clear voice? Like lipsync right? Ahaha

Normani came to slay and I wasn't ready... She's a hell of a performer and never disappoints
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
THIS WAS AMAZING
I cant stop watching this
Damn she's such a polished entertainer. You rarely see that anymore these days.
What did Nikki say???? "Normani Is That Bihhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" !!! I loved it. This was the best performance. People keep counting her out and she keeps showing up!!!!!!! Yass. I wish nothing but greatness for this talented flawless woman.
Es que de verdad Normani es una A-R-T-I-S-T-A, jamás me cansaré de decir como es de las mejores en la industria en este momento. Eres grande mi chiquita
Your beauty, your voice, your dance = PERFECT ✨
She keeps singing amazingly while doing those moves! Wow!
The fact we had to protest for her to perform is a prime example how these executives are threatened by her star power she came and showed out😍😍😍😍
Hands down one of the best and clean performance ever!!!
she queen
Normani KILLED this performance!!! She literally was the best of the night. Also, the MIC was ON!!! Normani you inspire me sooo much and I can't wait until the album drops as well as your 1st tour dates.
Edit: Oh wow! Thanks for all the likes. I think this may be my first popular comment. However, to all those saying that the vocals were "pre-recorded" please STOP because it was not. My bestie actually was there in the audience at the VMA show and she confirmed that Normani was singing LIVE with backing tracks (as were most of the VMA performers). Also, if you notice Normani actually messed up the second chorus and sand "we can't just keep taking about it" twice. She didn't pre-record the lyrics wrong. She was SINGING.
Oh btw: Here is video EVERYONE should watch. The LIVE vocals of her MIC feed:

@@bluemoon7785 My love for Normani helps me 😂😂😂.
ehhh i think the track was pre recorded… the breaths and facial expressions, and pull aways aren’t completely in sync… still a dope performance though (:
the vocals were prerecorded
The MIC was NOT ON
That whistle was so on point😫😫
Her voice on 2:32 is so beautiful 😍 🙌🏽
That high note I love it
Normani is so talented she deserve all the recognition.
