Virgos Groove Posted May 2 Posted May 2 If this came out a month earlier, it would've gotten 10s across the board. Taylor broke poptimism 6
Asherio Posted May 2 Posted May 2 Dua girl we still love you. You just used the wrong word. 🤍 Watch her use this as fuel just as when people said she couldn't dance. 1

Augmented Posted May 2 Posted May 2 Whilst listening to filler season I feel like I need to comment about her describing the album. The thing is with Dua she absolutely NAILED the album influences with Future Nostalgia (Blondie, Moloko, Jamiroquai etc) so I fail to understand why she didn't get her intentions properly across on this go around
Summer Boy Posted May 2 Posted May 2 I don't really love the album right now. Houdini is still great, very catchy. I really like French Exit and Watcha Doing is my favorite (by a large margin) so far. But yeah, the rest of the songs are decent, but not very strong. And the lyrics are way too cliché. I'll listen to it again tomorrow, but it feels like a weak 6/10 right now. Also, some of the songs are kinda boring for me, and it's the worst thing a generic pop song can be...
Thickorita Posted May 2 Posted May 2 Didn't realise NME still did scores under 80. Duallah single handedly defeating poptimism

Quote Nobody needs to know the details of Lipa's real life to lend her songs weight, but there should still be something in her performance, delivery, songwriting or production that sets them apart from platitudes, from background noise. In her dance-pop singles, she's proven that she can do the 'pop' part, but the 'star' is still lacking.

Miss Anthropocene Posted May 2 Posted May 2 Falling forever making me feel like I'm dancing on a skyscraper with my boobs out and a glass of veuve clipuot
Burqa Posted May 2 Posted May 2 not this album serving panned after flopped i just hope they don't cut the era short cause i need videos for FF and Maria
Bookmark99 Posted May 2 Posted May 2 The lashings Independent and Rolling Stone are the only ones who are still automatically giving high scores to every popstar. Poptimism is OVER

Summer Boy Posted May 2 Posted May 2 yeah, the album is kinda weak, but Watcha Doing is a SMASH, I'll have it on replay for weeks!
