Fifth Harmony Shades Camila Cabello, Group Says They’re On The ‘Same Page’
Fifth Harmony has so much to look forward to this month, from the release of their third studio album, to performing live at the MTV Video Music Awards. Although they are experiencing loads of success since Camila Cabello left the group, they have had their fair share of somber moments.
On Wednesday, 5H member Dinah Jane Hansen shared a photo of the group on the September/October cover of Seventeen. In their interview with the magazine, the group gushed over their success, but were also realistic about the fact that 2017 hasn’t been the easiest year for them.

“We’re focusing on this new era. We’ve had some highs and some very, very sad lows, but together we’re writing our new narrative,” Ally Brooke Hernandez told the publication.
Normani Kordei agreed with her group member’s sentiment revealing that since Cabello has left, they have been able to see eye to eye. “It’s so beautiful having four women on the same page. There’s nothing we can’t get through together,” the singer said.
Not long after leaving the group, Cabello was featured in Billboard, in which she admitted to causing tension in the group before she left in December to pursue a solo career. “I think that in a group there is always going to be tension, whether it’s because of this thing or [another] thing. Obviously, I think that rocked the boat,” she told the magazine.
Cabello revealed that she was open with her group members that she had issues with singing songs she couldn’t relate to. “I don’t know. I was always super open [that] I couldn’t just sing other people’s words and be totally happy with that. You have to follow and honor that inner voice. I always encouraged the girls to do the same,” she said.
Nowadays, Cabello revealed that her recording process as a solo artist is “totally different” compared to recording with Fifth Harmony. The singer told Wonderland that things work differently when you are creating your own music.
“In the group we would record songs for two weeks, it was a really fast process, like sometimes we’d do five songs in a day, it would just be like ‘alright you sing the verse, you sing that’, and then you just record it and that’s it,” she explained.
As a solo artist, Cabello revealed that she has to put in more of an effort, but that she is loving the process. “...I’ve had a chance to really like, write and make the songs, and be involved in every aspect of it from the production to the mixing. Definitely a lot more challenging but more fun, for sure.”
Although Cabello expressed that she wasn’t thrilled about singing another person’s words while in Fifth Harmony, since her exit, the group has insisted that they have been involved in the writing process for their upcoming self-titled album.

“It’s definitely elevated itself throughout the years, and we’ve come to a place where we are co-writing more than half of our album. So we’re much more integrated in the process and the lyrics and the sounds,” Lauren Jauregui told MTV in June.
Fifth Harmony’s third studio album will hit shelves on Aug. 25. Camila Cabello’s debut solo album, “The Hurting, The Healing, The Loving” is expected to be released in the fall.
