She should have done the entire album and released it. I felt this mostly with Training Season. I prefer the Brits/London Sessions versions because the live instrumentation and her vocals shine better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NostalgiawithDua Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 It's crazy how bad Training Season studio version is compared to live versions. Very tamed, monotonous, no build-up whereas the live version's intro sets a great tone. The song still had a lot of potential….. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katara Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 Screaming at Tate about to drop a full Timbaland inspired album in a 1-2 months. She saw us begging Dua to do it and said "you know what, lemme just steal that idea". I bet she gonna smash and slay. Where are the girlies who keep saying that it wouldn't work for Dua and no one wants that sound? Dua became lame and SLOW. I have a feeling they are gonna botch the re-issue (if there is any). 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brat summer is literally such a spit in the face though because Dua had the potential to take that for herself with a Radical Summer or something based on the album's sounds and aesthetics but instead we got the mess we did. I don't know why they didn't try to make the Houdini dance challenge happen a little more.. so many mistakes were made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NostalgiawithDua Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 Sabrina, Billie, Olivia, Charli outstreaming and outselling her is so embarrassing. She needs to get tf up and create a brand for herself, that FN hype won't last for long especially with so many new girlies getting hits now! 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The scene is very favorable for pop girls right now. She could have easily matched FN with a fresh catchy sound. Yet here we are LOL. Absolute silence.

Badgalbriel Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 It's crazy that after all that success, she's still faceless. I think she lacks a defining identity trait. Sabrina has her hair and cute-girl next door that could kill you vibe, Billie has her emo clothes and green hair, Chapell has her drag. Dua has no identity outside of looking pretty now. In fact, her bored face and "go girl, give us nothing" was more of an identity trait than whatever she is now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dua is too detached and polished she has nothing to sell expect generic lyrics. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For you identity is "hair" "clothes" "hair again" and "drag" ? What identity Sabrina has? Cause she has 6 albums out and we dont know anything about her except her latest fake PR relationship with that ugly actor. What do we know about Taylor except she likes to play victim and built her carreer on her failed relationships? Dua´s identity is being Dua. She doesn't need to pretend she is somebody she is not, she doesn't have to create her identity on exploiting her personal life and beef with other singers. If Dua was so faceless she wouldn't be so successful already with her 2nd album as she is. You are so used to these American show pony fake personalities that someone who is actually willing to be who they are and protect their privacy is faceless to you.

I wasn't shading Dua, so no need to be defensive. And when talking about an identity, I was talking about a visual identity, which she lacks. It's not that serious.
