Seems like a critical and commercial failure. What’s next for Dula Peep?

The way tones of 'Houdini' avis disappeared in favor of Tate McRae in the last weeks, never change ATRL :toofunny3:

I've been a Tate fan since 2018. I just fully jump on board since she changed her direction to pop diva.

I still believe in this bop

However, I am preparing to begin a “it was too ahead of its time for certain people” campaign :biblio:

Not when Dance The Night literally was one of the most streamed tracks of 2023

 

You tried though

Not a flop but a big underperformance and a non event.

It's been a boring forgettable rollout so far.

cuz the song is mid. so I wasnt expecting it to hit like that with Miley's vocals. 

 

I've concluded that this type of song just doesn't mesh well with Dua's vocals.

Can someone make Houdini Rihanna AI version

Yeah I don't pay attention to the lyrics but they're nothing special, yeah Miley voice elevated the song, her voice is like fine wine

Back to #25 globally, highest peak since November. With the Grammys/Brits happening soon, Hitdini should only rise from now on. Oh Duallah, the longevity Queen you ARE :jonny6:

it's cute in Europe and Brazil. But it's not connecting with the US at all.

DTN is now officially over in the US with the Oscar snub, so the real push of Houdini begins now. Dont count Hitdini out just yet

Posted

Yeah in Dua's defense there was zero actual promo for Houdini in the US. 

 

DTN was massive here.

Lets just put it into perspective

 

Hit - yes and

Underperformance - Houdini

Flop - J Christ

This aint 2011, what promo are you talking about? Miley did zero promo for Flowers and yet it was one of the biggest female hits of all time.

 

Unless she does a performance that goes viral, promo wont do anything.

 

Its all about playlists and radio support, Houdini has both and its simply not translating into streaming numbers.
