Could be shy, or still recovering from 5th Harmony. That experience seemed to have done a number on all of them except Camilia. She didn't seem to want to talk much about that season. Appreciate Terrell for not pushing too much and reading the room, not that I'm surprised. He's a great interviewer.

During the earlier days of X-Factor and Fifth Harmony, she belted and confidently sang. While she doesn't have the most "strongest" or most technical voice, she could benefit a lot from vocal training and getting comfortable with her instrument because that tone and those runs are just wow! Sad to see that everything she's been through sucked the confidence out of her voice. That would explain why she's so silent, nowadays. I want her to win so bad.

Dopamine sounds like a sci-fi movie soundtrack. Dopamine is if Rihanna made an entire album of songs that sound like “Sledgehammer”. Edit: I said that to say it’s not an album that I personally would fully play 24/7. Outside of Wildside, Still Tippin and Big Boy everything else sounds like music I play when I’m winding down at night, maybe with a blunt, trying to catch a vibe before I doze off. It’s a good album, just not completely the vibe I was looking for.
