Is “Houdini” a flop?: The Megathread!


Recommended Posts

Posted

uhm... 50/50 (i don't think so). she doesn't really have a solid fan base compared to the likes of Billie and Olivia; which I find really crazy since her last era was an absolute SMASH. It's very sad since I can see that she's trying really hard to make this "new sound" work for her. Let's hope the "her music takes off slowly" theory works for her. 

 

 

 

i'll be streaming in the meantime :}

The song is good and shes a longevity artist. Lets hope the perfomances will give the song a boost, im pretty sure DSN also had a slower start

By now we can all agree that Dua's comeback single is severely underperforming, if not straight up flopping. Seems like the public is not here for it. 

 

The question is: can that be reversed? Can Houdini rise up with more promo, performances, etc? Or is it time to move on and start planning the next single?

THIS! her fans were NOT expecting this type of sound. look at how GREAT dance the night SMASHED compared to houdini. it's time for her to go back to the drawing board, before its too late and the ENTIRE era plummets to the ground before it got the chance to take off.

A megathread is crazy :deadbanana4:

Also, something about this thread is giving me flashbacks of Rihanna lashings when a single didn't debut big. Not saying that Houdini might necessarily be a smash hit in time, but Dua certainly still has more hits in her with catchier music and her stans should just sit back and bid their time

not a fan but like to listen Dua and Houdini is okay but for the third time it’s boring. it has no replay energy, good for background music while shopping in tesco but that’s it

Guys her label will use fraud tactics in January - don’t get too excited

Mods should make one "Houdini flopped. Why?" megathread where Dua haters can circlejerk each other about the song's chart perfomance.

My impact :jonny5:

even me as a rihanna hater i can say that Rih had 1000x more presence, personality and nerve to stay on people's mind without huge debuts

Self-awareness is key. And while I'm not arguing that Dua and Rih are exactly similar, the hate does remind me of the threads dragging Rihanna singles each time she released (I'm sure you'd be aware of them being a self-professed hater). And I'm also not quite sure how an Ellie Goulding stan in 2023 would be going after Dua
