Are we really going to compare every single release of a female pop star to RO?

 

It's been a month y'all.

To think she could've easily made a much better album with the scraps from the FN era… 


Just listen to the following songs

1. Crocodile Tears

2. Fool's Paradise

3. Fun

4. Who Do You Love? 
5. Good Luck

6. Pressure

7. Firestarter 

8. Better This Way

9. Hard Days

10. Don't Wait For Me

11. When Ur Sober

12. Don't Wait For Me

13. I Wish I Never Met You

 

Now tell me if this wouldn't sound better & fresher as an album than what we got on RO :mandown:

It's a commercial and critical failure. Nothing's going to change that, let's move on, she's one of the few pop girlies to not get a hit this year and that's okay. The least they can do is move on from Illusion and promote These Walls…..

Oh poor Dua tanked! :weeps:

 

I kind of see her as a Victoria Beckham type celebrity!  I don't see her being a hard working touring musician anymore.

Need a MV for Falling Forever, but the fact that she excluded it from the summer shows setlist makes it unlikely :'(

She needs to open her TikTok and post videos on there & promote her music, like Sabrina or Billie or Charli are doing. That's our only hope for this era to not end up as a total commercial failure.

Erm she's on stage about now in Croatia, couple of shows in France next week, and then she's doing that intimate little gig two weeks on Friday in a field in Somerset.

Her tiktoks flopped, she's not really the type of personality gen z prefers, if she wanted she could've used her relationship for publicity just like Sabrina or be quirky like Billie/Charli, her most powerful asset is her voice and just like Adele, she should utilise it!

It took Sabrina 9 years to have international hit, while Dua already had one ("New Rules") on her first album

 

Dont be ridiculous ....

 

Girl I know. I'm just responding to that user saying Please Please Please id flopping when it's clearly smashing Nectarine2.thumb.jpeg.3d00ed462e61c9d0f3

 No amount of "it's the management's fault" and "well, she's better than Charli, Sabrina, Billie" is going to change the fact this was a **** album that clicked with no one, stop being bitter over other pop girls smashing and accept the fact this was a huge musical mishap and there's no excuses.

Now why do we have haters here? Even this thread is a flop :deadbanana4:

Lol not a hater at all, I love her. This project just wasn't it. Seeing people be bitchy at other artists for no reason to cope with this era is annoying.

I still stand by this album's quality. There's a solid era inside of it, they just do not care at all. She's lost that hunger.

Same. Maybe we needed miss self proclaimed Houdini to also pull some voodoo magic...instead she's over here living her best Vancanza Queen life making matcha tea grinds from scratch in a kimono  ezgif.com-video-to-gif(2).thumb.gif.87f9Nectarine2.thumb.jpeg.3d00ed462e61c9d0f3

You're funny, but you know very well that Dua is mature girl, and she doesn't use black magic and personal life for fame.

If she was like Taylor then she would've released the OG mv of Training Season as lead single but thank god, she ain't politically unaware about the fact that the mv would've caused a lot of negative response from her supporters, just a case of bad timing….

Training season as lead single ? Sure cos the no 27 peaking smash would have made things SO much better.

This is such a typical stan response when an album flops.

That's what we call autoplay sweetie, I'm convinced that's how she got that to smash and won't budge on that theory.

 

Even though I've recently switched and started bopping to it :emofish:

 

Now if only Warner could send some cheques to Spotify to get Dua on board with autoplay :sistrens:

Illusion could have easily been the summer hit of the year but it was handled so poorly :weeps: My fav song from her.

Wonder why Dance The night didn't make the cut of her latest tour?
