Normani Kordei on Fifth Harmony’s Musical Evolution – TeenVogue.com

Fifth Harmony may have had its ups and downs, but member Normani Kordei is here to assure fans that the group is better and stronger than ever.

"We have seen each other at our highest points and our lowest," the singer told Rolling Out magazine. "You will definitely get a new sense of who we are, and that is stepping into womanhood."

From Ally Brooke Hernandez headlining a show in Brazil to Normani officially being part of the new season of Dancing With the Stars, Harmonizers are certainly seeing more sides of the girls than they've ever seen before. But don't think that it's a sign that there will be more fragmentation in the power group. "Ever since I was little, I looked up to Destinys Child so much; I looked up to the Spice Girls and En Vogue. A piece of me wanted to be in a girl group," Normani explains. A benefit to working as a team? "I think that its taught me to learn people, and just be respectful," she notes.

The singer and now-DTWS contestant does note, however, that being part of a girl group was an "adjustment" given that "we auditioned for X Factor as solo artists, meaning we had the mentality of pursuing a career individually." Though Normani couldn't be happier with how everything came together, she's still itching to do more things on her own. "I just feel like I havent been able to showcase my full potential. I hate the fact that people can judge based on something that isnt fully given to them. Like this isnt the full product," she said. "This isnt all I have to offer, so dont judge based on this little piece of what youre given. I have so much in me that people dont even know, and I cant wait to offer it to them."

Normani would describe her solo tracks as, "definitely more R&B... I kind of have to take pieces of myself to fit what it is that radio wants." She truly believes the time is now to actually live out her potential and grow as an artist, but the group is still her "number one priority," and added, "I think that its just about balance, keeping myself centered, and being happy and healthy."
