"Not That Kinda Girl" is a song by Fifth Harmony included on their second studio album, 7/27, which debuted on May 27, 2016.
Critical Response[]
"This is what you call a Banger with a capital B. In fact, capitalise the whole darn word it's that good. Sonically it shouldn't fit on the album, but with its old-school stomp and '80s-inspired synths that echo the very best of Janet Jackson, you can practically see the choreography dripping out of the speakers. Naturally, Missy Elliott's guest verse only fires things up further, until it explodes into a finale that will have you reaching for the factor 50.", according to Lewis Corner of Digitalspy.
"The fiercest, most kick ass off the track is this anthem that outright affirms the “I’m Not That Kinda Girl” statement. Complete with an epic Missy Elliot verse, this song will have you chanting, singing along and feeling motivated and confident af.", according to Brittany Goldfield Rodrigues of ANDPOP.

Normani:
Wow!
Dinah:
Uh!
Normani:
Come on!
You pull up in the car, so what it's a Benz

Wanna spend it on me... Baby, please

Tryna talk shit like I'm gonna follow
