Background

edit

Normani first hinted at a possible collaboration between her and Khalid via an Instagram post in July 2017.[5] Khalid also opened up about the collaboration during an interview with MTV News the next month.[6][7] Later, Normani confirmed to Billboard that they were working together on collaboration ideas, calling him "an important artist and a great friend".[8] She divulged to Kode in an interview in October 2017, when asked to share information on the collaboration:

Khalid and I have been wanting to work together for some time. We actually got into the studio and were excited about a record we wrote together along with Tayla Parx. It was all one huge vibe session. We wanted to create something that our peers would fall in love with. I remember him telling me "I want this to be my favorite record, if I were listening, I want it to be something I vibe with that's just dope," which is something I relate to because I listen to our song every day. Issa vibe. But the greatest part of it all is that were genuinely two friends that created something special that were so proud of. We're in two different countries on tour but we still text each other sometimes like, "but that record though..."[9]

The duet was officially announced on January 16, 2018.[10][11] On February 12, 2018, Normani posted a photograph of her and Khalid, captioning the photo: "2/14".[12] Similarly, Khalid posted the single artwork with the same caption.[13] The two artists also teased a few lyrics from the song, with Khalid replying Normani's announcement with "tell me where your love lies", to which Normani replied: "waste the day and spend the night".[14] Normani spoke to Zane Lowe on his Beats 1 radio show about the song, saying that recording it was a "growing process" for her. "I feel like people are actually getting like a sense of who I actually am," she said. "Being in the studio and partnering with Khalid, it actually tells me more about myself that I didn't necessarily know was even there. This is definitely [a] growing process and I can't wait. I'm so excited for the journey."[15]

Composition

edit

Musically, "Love Lies" is an R&B,[1] song that contains elements of snap, as well as synths and vocal effects. The song's verses are resigned and have a quaint 1980s sound, laden with a simple finger-click beat and drums. Khalid and Normani's vocals are both in E♭ minor.[16]

Critical reception

edit

Nina Braca of Billboard wrote a positive review of the song, saying: "The romantically curious lyrics perfectly compliment Normani's smooth vocals over a simple guitar riff and slow pop beat."[17] Hugh McIntyre of Fuse deemed the song "a laid-back R&B affair so mature it's difficult to believe the artists behind it are so young and still just getting started in their respective careers". He called the production "a natural progression" for Khalid and something "not far from Normani's comfort zone", and displaying herself as a ”sex symbol”. He also praised the guitar loop, calling it "a nice touch on a beat that is fairly sparse, and at times, nonexistent", writing that "it helps this song stand out among the hundreds of other similar tracks".[18] Sam Damshenas of Gay Times described it as "incredibly catchy and addictive".[19] Mike Wass of Idolator opined that "the dreamy mid-tempo anthem showcases her voice and hints at the R&B/pop direction of her side-project".[20]

Billboard's critics' list placed it second on "Every Fifth Harmony Solo Single, Ranked" in March 2018,[21] while "Love Lies" topped Billboard's critics' list on "Every Khalid collaboration, Ranked" in April 2019.[22] Furthermore, Vanity Fair mentioned it among a group of "genre-averse" pop songs that blended multiple elements from other genres, and defined 2018 in music, and stated that "Love Lies" along with the other listed songs opened the door for ensuing genre-blending smash hits like "Old Town Road" by Lil Nas X and Billy Ray Cyrus.[23] Former United States president Barack Obama named the song among his favorites of 2018 on social media.[24]

Revolt TV noted in its "Charting Black Excellence" column, that "Love Lies" was the first song with solely black artists to top the pop charts since Flo Rida’s "My House" in 2016.[38] According to music executive Courtney Stewart, It was the first duet by two African-American singers to reach number one at pop radio in 20 plus years.[39] "Love Lies" spent 45 weeks on the chart and tied the record for the longest charting song on the Mainstream Top 40 chart.[40] "Love Lies" also stayed in the Top 10 of the chart for twenty six weeks, making it the first song by a female artist or by black artists to do so.[41]
