Dua Lipa - 'Radical Optimism'


Recommended Posts

I swear if Papa Lipa don't do anything to secure #2 US debut… a 75k / #2 could actually be a nice debut 

 

 

Time for a discount or a US exclusive signed copies secure that #2 debut

Those HitsDD numbers are actually great but part of me just thinks that her team is taking this delusionally and taking it as a win that the era is success.. :gaycat7:

 

they better not get complacent

One of Dua's greatest strengths is her longevity, the debut numbers are actually not so bad. I'm just curious now if they're gonna try to draw out the era or not. 

 

I really don't think it's worth it, even if they can squeeze 2 more hits out of this only because releasing another album sooner rather than later would be great for Dua's momentum.

She's performing at Austin City Limits this next October. I want to go :flame:

RO is a great album, if there was 2 more tracks on the level of Houdini, everyone would be singing a different tune. It's just Houdini is the only 10 imo, everything else is a 7-8ish, with a couple around the 6-7 range. 

 

I know the tea was false but I do feel there was something that happened during the development of this album that made them shift from the album that Illusion/Houdini/TS were made for, to this final product. 
 

I don't know if they have plans to do much more in terms of releases, but I would love an expanded/deluxe with at least a couple more songs like Houdini or Training Season. Kevin's increased presence on those two songs work so well.

 

Rather than them shifting the direction during the process of making the album, it seems more like a concerted effort to not be stuck with one specific sound. If the new sonic choices weren't received well at all, they would have no recourse. It doesn't feel like Dua completely played it safe, but in the follow up to her most impactful moment with FN it just sounds like RO builds on that era and sparingly brings something new.

So the person who posted she sold 9K? What was that about?

The data was for US but keep in mind that some stores report sales with 2-3 days delay, so data from Monday =/= sales for full complete 3 days. This is just for current reports.

I need her to start Miley beef with this Calvin collab coming out, we need more promo

Ugh if only she was an artist to surprise drop a deluxe in the same week for a few more streams / sales. She could def secure that #2 from Morgan ******* Wallen :deadbanana2:

 

She'd never tho. You gotta give it to her -- no collabs, only 11 tracks... Even thougj the deluxes always get a little bloated, the "real" / standard albums always have artistic merit to them. Even if FN and RO could have each used 1-3 more songs.

I'm sorry but why do you guys want that #2 debut so much? Such an ugly number, I would take that #3 instead :deadbanana2:
