Luckily the GP said YES! to the North American leg of her tour and everyone was perched to see her, seeing as it completely sold out. I guess those people just HAD to see her to throw tomatoes on the stage because they were so mad that she interrupted their daily listenings when Levitating came onto their playlist. I’m sure that Diamond plaque was brought on by her haters as well. I keep learning new stuff on ATRL every day. Thank you miss Hot Volcano

 

There are 350 million people in the US, her 10k arenas are what -  0,002% of the US population?

I would like to see Warner accountable books with Dua Lipa because the amount of money that have to spend during months to build any of her hits is totally anormal 

Well good enough for them she also makes them a huge profit! I know Joe is still thanking the lord on his knees everyday that he managed to sign her

Proving once again she is relying on heavy radio airplay and major Spotify playlists?

Why is this song doing so poor on Apple Music? I mean #138 is its peak, like what?

Finally something we can both agree on!

 

I changed my mind then. Dua > some other senoritas. Yes Dua yes hit

I don't know why people think her songs taking months of playlisting and radio to do well is a flex. Atp in her career she should be a big enough name that people at least check her new releases right away. Even Katy managed that with POM and Roar

 

people are checking her releases right away considering the song’s debut numbers on Spotify and Youtube

[Alaska.]

The real question is how many weeks we'll have to wait for this thread to get bumped

Dua really needs your swift-wealth right now, swipe those cards I guess

 

[Meev]

I wonder if Dua can avoid the fourth album curse, or if she will flop like Katy did

idk why i really hope she flops for once. people's overconfidence that her payola campaign will save her even though there's no organic interest is sickening

If you’re interested in flops, I can direct you to Sweetest Pie and Potion. Dua is versatile like that

 

[Iris]

Psychedelic music is risky.

It's at #20 which is fine cuz Dua normally tanks on AM compared to Spotify

I’ll just quote this thread in 4 months 

so what i'm hearing is she has no fanbase or organic interest and we have to wait until her label has shoved it down the GPs throats for it to become a hit?

Lets see the touring receipts for your fave the Senorita songstress then. I can’t wait!

 

[Le Grande]

As much as I love her and her music, I honestly don't see this serving longevity like her previous hits.

i never said this luv. some songs just take a while to really hit and not everything has to he an instant smash like flowers. and cut this “not organic” bullcrap. literally every pop song on this magnitude gets playlisting and radio.

[Bloodflowers.]

It's a buzz single. When she drops a song that is family-friendly lyrics wise, she will smash again with the GP.

It sounds like you are really concerned about the GP’s welfare. Maybe you should go on the street to ask people how they’ve been wronged with this alleged forcing of Dua’s songs and organize a strike! Text me the adress. I could use a good laugh today
