Both have: effortless sex appeal, an eye for fashion, an ear for hits and ability to keep up with the trends. They both kind of represents what it means to be a young, successful, driven popstar. 

 

Is Dua the Rihanna for Gen Z?

no x

I’d say dua is the most consistent female hitmaker since Rihanna. Global smash hits at that

This is disrespectful to Rihanna.

shes the katy perry of that generation 

7 years into their careers: 

 

Dua Lipa: 9 million albums sold, 5 Top 10 hits, 3 Grammys, 0 #1’s.

 

Rihanna: 34 million albums sold, 28 Top 10’s, 9 Grammy’s, 13 #1s. 
 

Looks like absolutely not

 

girl this isn't a album tf.

 

and the answer is obviously no. Rihanna doesnt have a skipless magnum opus like Future Nostalgia TF!

Not the report shdjd

7 albums vs 2 albums

In terms of all the Gen Z main pop girls in this current landscape, she’s definitely the closest thing 

Dua Lipa is the Dua Lipa of this generation 

 

 

Spoiler

Allthough she’s definitely abandoning us after DL3 but thats a worry for the future 

 

 

The nerve -- Ri had like 7 albums at this point in her career.

Okay let’s pretend only LOUD & GGGB exist and still doubling Dua in all metrics…. 

No. Nobody is this generations Rihanna. She cannot be replicated

So you agree.. Dua doesn’t have the work ethic either…

Rihanna released 7 albums in her first 7 years.  Dua released 2.  They are not the same. 

Leave Rihanna's name out of your mouth, thank you 

No, sorry. It could’ve been Doja, but she’d rather be the next Nicki so

I guess you are using pure sales, but where did you get 9m pure sales for Dua? She has sold like 1.5m

She’s nearing singing competition judge status so I doubt it. Maybe more of this gen’s Katy.

 

It’s way too early to tell.
