Until then, he’s been spoiling his fans, Nam Nation, with spoiler after spoiler. He’s just a giving person.
It’s hard to believe that any song can top “I Don’t Know You Anymore” or “Any Other Way.”
Like, we literally can’t get over the vibes of either song. They are still on repeat.
Both inspired iconic TikTok trends…
@ericnam when you’ve waited an hour and delivery cancels on you…#idkya #ericnam you’re #cancelled #idontknowyouanymore
Yet, for those who attended festival 2021 Music Midtown in Eric’s hometown of Atlanta, Georgia, there’s one song that has been eagerly anticipated. It’s none other than “Wildfire.”
the way wildfire by @ericnamofficial will be song of the year.

Finally, Eric dropped a “sneak peek” of “Wildfire” for those of us unfortunate to see him tease the song live back in September 2021.

The Nam Nation was quick to say that “Wildfire” was now their new favorite song. Still, Eric guaranteed us that there was even more phenomenal music coming…

For those part of Eric’s contact list for texting, he gave us a first listen of two more songs, “Lost On Me” and “what if.” It was a couple of clips, ranging from 27 to 40 seconds.
But because Eric is all-inclusive, as only Americans and Canadians can text him, he then posted a “snippet” of “Lost On Me” to his socials.
Here’s a snippet of my new single, “Lost On Me”…on Jan 7th, it’s all yours ❤️.https://t.co/m7I7zfKAXG pic.twitter.com/Z9u9DtA5vL

He then created a poll, inviting fans to pick their favorite song so far…

Of course, we wanted to know what his pick is too. Still, Eric couldn’t make a decision just yet.
Wow y’all really making me make a decision?? I created this poll 😂😂😂

He promised to tell us his favorite song this Friday when There And Back Again is released.
I will tell you on Friday

Things didn’t stop there, though. The next day, Eric asked his followers if they were interested in some more spoilers while they wait for Friday.

And in case anyone wanted to start up with him about how he’s dropping one too many spoilers, he reminded everyone that he’s an independent artist now! He can do what he wants.

Who is going to come at him? His manager, a.k.a. his younger brother Eddie Nam?
