I've always loved TS. The video was just sooo disappointing I didn't care for it as a single anymore. 
 

Houdini and TS are #2 and #3 on my Apple Replay of the year so far :WAP: (I know it basically just came out, but Illusion is at #98 :monkey:)

For her next album what type of sound for the album would you like Dua to make?

I think she should either go into the darker electropop sound (Madison Beer - Make You Mine, Rebecca Black - Crumbs, Billie's new album, etc) or leave pop go more R&B/Alt (DIWK? - Arctic Monkeys, Too Sweet - Hozier, Intro - The XX, her cover of Sunshine was amazing too). 

 

Her voice is tailor made for darker and slower music imo. She would find a lot of success with that if executed right, while still maintaining quality music. I mainly just want her to move away from the upbeat, glittery dance pop for an era an into something new and more mature for her.

I would love for this. Could you imagine?! 
 

Her voice on the cover for Cleo Sol's Sunshine is so beautiful. I love Dua's darker/lower register vocals it sets her apart and I feel she really shines.

Literally, her tone is gorgeous on stripped back/lower register songs. I would love to see her explore that sound and get collabs with girls like Jorja Smith or Kali Uchis. It would be different for her, but would still be accessible enough to the mainstream that should could have another big era. 

 

Come on Dua! We wanna see it!

i need a full era of dark pop from her

 

Want To (live version) was just too good

Running deserved better :jonny5:

If These Walls becomes a single, what would you think the video should be like? 
 

Any ideas? 
 

Now that I work for Dua's team. I have some input in these things.

Can we talk about how good this album sounds completely sober? 
And how you don't need to do drugs to enjoy it? :cm:

Weird shade, I like this album alot without substances, but they did give me another perspective when used in conjunction. Amazing record :clap3:

She should really lean more into the psychedelic stuff, a Ray of Light-esque record from her would be a COLLAPSE!!!! This album is really addicting tbh, can't wait for the inevitable deluxe/expanded that'll come out. :jonnycat:

I want house music from her too but she should do a few cute little droplets for that rather than an album of house music, at least not for DL4

Truly a bop but I think house music that's a bit more radio friendly for the gp.

Another thing I'd like for Dua to explore next album, besides a new sound, is more introspective songs. She went deeper into her vulnerability this album, but next album I'd love to see more about her internal dialogue. How has fame made her feel? How does she feel she's changed? Has she felt any type of sadness or happiness during the huge changes in her life?

The album is actually really stable without a huge hit carrying its numbers. If they wanted to push Illusion then These Walls we could definitely see the album have good legs.

She's so well read and spoken, and worldly - especially relative to her peers. I think this was a step in the right direction to what could be more depth going forward. 

 

She's young though, like just live your life tbh also she shows her depth in our venues; I think she just wants her music to be a good time. Idk
