V_E_N_U_S Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 (edited) 14 minutes ago, perpetual novice said: It's actually kinda crazy how u can spend a considerable amount of time on a forum about pop music but think Rihanna and Gaga are today's pop girls, and also literally none of the girls you listed alongside Dua have half as many hits as her and none of them have done a few select arenas on their tours let alone a fully sold out arena tour. Be a little more informed baby I think they're demonstrating what a MPG is. Whilst e.g. Bey and Brit debuted in a diff time to e.g. Katy and Rih, they still all possessed a specific set of attributes and prowess in their career that made them MPG at one point in time or another. Dua is (was) nearly there imo! Edited May 4 by V_E_N_U_S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halcyonday Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 Houdini will always be the song to blame. For a lead single, after Future Nostalgia, after Barbie, after 140+M playlist reach for months... the sis got 400m streams. Now THIS is what call an era killer. 1 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crank_It_Up Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 All this talk about touring is making me happy the album is kinda underperforming because I think it guarantees me a ticket to a show! We gotta see the silver lining in this situation we are currently in! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackoutZone Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 I hope they go all out for Glasto, the public needs to be reminded that no matter what she can still put on a show. They have big ambitions for the tour from what I know so... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

selena_lavigne Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 Listen, the numbers are serving underperformance. But also, it's a Dua Lipa album. What exactly were you expecting. The album is serving very close to Plastic Hearts level of quality. It is a thoroughly enjoyable album FOR ME. And quite honestly i only care that i like it, and my household also seems to like it. So it's a win win. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doing arenas really isn't that big of a deal in anymore. as a doja stan I was worried when I went to the scarlet tour that the arena was gonna have a bunch of empty seats since she was in her "hated" era but then the whole place was packed and people were chanting her name that's when I realized she was a certified IT girl anyway back to dua Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

selena_lavigne Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 These Walls should have been single #2 and Training Season should have had a better video and been released with the album. She woulda scratched much higher numbers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
