As for why Camila left Fifth Harmony? The “Havana” singer has said that she went solo because her desire to write her own music didn’t align with the group’s outlook at the time.
“I can remember waking up on tour and going to my hotel room at 7 a.m., and going to my garage band and writing songs,” she shared on Call Her Daddy in March, “‘cause I didn’t want to do it while everybody was there and I had such a passion that turned into writing. And at first I was like, ‘Oh, maybe I wanna write for other people.’ But then it turned into like, ‘No, actually I want to sing these songs by myself.'”
The “Bam Bam” singer added, “I started distancing myself from the group vision, and it felt like they were still really passionate and into that. And so, I was just like, ‘I’m not happy here anymore, it doesn’t feel aligned.'”
