"This song really captures me in one of my most vulnerable moments," Normani shared with her 6.9 million followers earlier this afternoon. "Sharing this record makes me uncomfortable because you have never seen me in this light."
"Definitely aware that you might feel like you don't know much about me," the 25-year-old continued, "but that's only because it's what makes me feel protected. I am really forcing myself to let go here. This is huge for me and hopefully this piece of art resonates. Love is beautiful yet soooo terrifying."
On social media, viewers couldn't help but point out that the former Fifth Harmony member is clearly channelling the energy of 90s R&B icons like Toni Braxton and Janet Jackson for her single's cover art.
