Two months after announcing her partnership with Bose and teasing her upcoming single “Candy Paint,” Normani is expanding into product design. The singer teamed with Bose to release a custom version of the QuietComfort Earbuds II on Thursday (Aug. 17).
The Normani x Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II are an ode to her upcoming “Candy Paint” single with a metallic purple colorway that channels a candy paint job on car. Normani also put a clue about her upcoming album on the back of the charging case.
“There’s a little Easter egg on the back,” she says in a video debuting the limited-edition earbuds. “It’ll all make sense in the grand scheme of this body of work, which I’m really excited about.”
Bose’s QuietComfort Earbuds II features touch control, 11 levels of adjustable noise cancellation, Custom Tune technology that personalizes sound to the shape of your ears and six hours of battery life.
Additionally, Bose QuietComfort II Earbuds have an Adjustable EQ setting located in the Bose Music app to controls bass, mid-range and treble. QuietComfort II earbuds are IPX4 rated moisture resistant, which means that they can withstand sweat, splashes and sprays.
In June, Normani announced her Bose collaboration with a video previewing her “Candy Paint” single. “The Bose team [were] really hands on and allowed me to be hands on and take leadership in terms of the creativity,” she told Billboard at the time. “It just felt authentic and enjoyable, honestly. It was probably one of the most seamless experiences [for a partnership] thus far.”
During the interview, Normani also shared that she prefers earbuds to headphones. “I’m definitely an earbuds girl. Especially in rehearsals with [choreographer] Shaun [Bankhead]. He’s going to give me an eight count, OK?! I cant help but go full out. I just feel supported [in earbuds] and not limited.”
Normani’s Bose earbuds are still available online at Bose.com, but stock is extremely limited, which means they won’t be available for long. Shop the Normani x Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II below.
