R&B sensations Khalid and Normani have officially announced their new collaborative single, “Personal,” set for release on December 6, 2024, via Right Hand Music Group/RCA Records. This marks their second partnership since the 2018 hit “Love Lies,” which achieved multi-platinum status and peaked at No. 9 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Khalid shared the news on social media, posting a photo of himself and Normani against a forest green backdrop with the caption:
“PERSONAL @Normani 12/6”
He also provided a behind-the-scenes video where the duo lip-sync to a snippet of the track, harmonizing:
“So sensual / You know that I could never stay mad at you / So what you gonna do? / Put your body on my body / Get personal.”
Normani follows with her verse:
“We can keep it private between you and me / The door is open / You don’t even need a key / You’ve been pushing on me so relentlessly.”
This reunion comes after both artists released their respective albums earlier this year. Normani’s debut solo album, “Dopamine,” dropped in June, featuring collaborations with artists like Cardi B, Gunna, James Blake, and Starrah. The album debuted at No. 9 on Billboard’s Top R&B Albums chart. Khalid released his third album, “Sincere,” in August, which included singles such as “Please Don’t Fall In Love With Me” and “Heatstroke,” and featured Arlo Parks. “Sincere” peaked at No. 2 on the Top R&B Albums chart.
Fans are eagerly anticipating “Personal,” hoping it will recapture the chemistry that made “Love Lies” a standout hit.
