DoubleRainbow! Posted February 19 Posted February 19 2 hours ago, Relampago. said: You know, I was actually thinking about this “Dua needs to switch it up to smash!” narrative going around. She did and the songs that did well were the ones that were retro throwbacks similar to what she’s doing now: We’re Good: Meh success Demeanor: FLOP Potion: FLOP Un Día: Meh success Prisoner: Meh success Meanwhile.. Cold Heart: MEGA SMASH Dance the Night: MEGA SMASH So I don’t think that’s really an issue at all. She might as well make music her and her fans love. Well, UN DÍA was a mega smash in Latin America, I mean almost 900M streams from Spanish speaking countries is huge. same for Fever, a Smash in the French speaking countries

Dua stands with Palestine it’d be controversial but it would drive more views to the video and would save all face for her Wait she scrapped the video cause she made training season a war music video? 2
kayliah Posted February 19 Posted February 19 (edited) Its better than houdini but using the same producers on all her tracks wont cut it. She needs a doover.. i would rework the album look for 1 or 2 worldwide smashes and release it in October or November. The excitement aint there for these mid songs that sound cohesive but too similar. Edited February 19 by kayliah 1
ariananext Posted February 19 Posted February 19 Tbh Houdini and Training Season don't sound similar to me, they just seem to belong to the same universe which makes sense since they're on the same album. 2 10
Prismee Posted February 19 Posted February 19 idk i'm not quite feeling this one. it's catchy for sure but it feels empty? kinda reminds me of Break My Heart, which i didn't also care for in the FN era (at least not over DSN, Levitating, Physical, and Love Again). 3
mike_int Posted February 19 Posted February 19 12 hours ago, stupidjock said: but that user is right and you can see how they thought they ate with this album creating all this hype before Houdini dropped and now the response is pretty underwhelming because the songs doesn't live up to the hype. If the 3rd single is similar then we are not getting that psychedelic album that is totally different from FN and her ROL and the result of this bad marketing will be underwhelming sales What "hype" did the label created? There were no big campaign unless you count few social media posts. The "hype" was created by people.
T.O.A.D.S. Posted February 19 Posted February 19 It’s funny seeing people claim that Houdini and Training Season “flopped” because of their “weird titles” while also begging Dua to name her album Chaos Theory 4
ReachOut Posted February 19 Posted February 19 They could release a choreo video like the did with Physical and pretend it's the actual video. 5 1

On social media? This era is carryed by Dua name alone, thank God GP loves her anyway, but promo slots are a mess so far 1

ReachOut Posted February 19 Posted February 19 6 minutes ago, stupidjock said: Where else? LMAO First TV performance was held at Grammy's, like 3 months later the era started; TV interviews were basically made only in the US and that's the promo that veterans do, not new or young artists. People on social =/= GP. This didn't even feel like a new era because of DTN smashing WW and US after Barbie success and this didn't help cementing the hype on the new project.
mike_int Posted February 19 Posted February 19 Why do you guys want everything all at one? Dua is not the artist who is releasing album every year, let it flow naturally. If we get everything at one then we will be starving for more later. Enjoy things, dont jump onto new thing right after we just got something. 7

I love the cube. Strobe, neon lights and fog would be amazing and elevate the psychedelic vibes the team is going for this era
Solaria Posted February 19 Posted February 19 She’s really trying to prove she’s extra Bri-ish this era. I’ve never heard anybody pronounce ‘HOEEEHDINI’ and ‘AHHROW’ with so much oomph 1
Waydark Posted February 19 Posted February 19 (edited) Spotify WW: #17 (-1) Training Season, Dua Lipa 2,858,776 Only 12% drop. Not bad for a Sunday. Edited February 19 by Waydark 1
Starkboy Posted February 19 Posted February 19 Yeah the update is better than expected we love her again ! 6
