better song won 

Espresso is a huge undeniable smash

 

Like song of the summer has arrived 

Dua is still outcharting Queen Pez in the UK tho on Spotters.

Tbh Espresso sounds like a hit, Delusion doesn't

It's the better song so

Illusion outcharting Espresso first day was a perfect illusion.

Sabrina is slaying. Lead single confirmed. 

It wasn't a smash

It wasn't a smash

It was a perfect ILLUSION

Illusion is giving background mall music, meanwhile Espresso is THAT spotlight girl

 

GODrina is dula's ender  

Dua is done in the US. The way we just said no so abruptly.

 

Espresso is a cute song

Macchiato really is the better song. 

So now both Sabrina AND Dua are outcharting the Perry gurl

Inch resting

 

espresso sounds like a hit, illusion sounds like what used to be a hit in the uk

Espresso is way better lbffr

People needed a coffee for the weekend 

Kevin Parker curse producing songs with the word Illusion 😭

The better song won. 
 

It's catchier and better

 

I'm shocked it's charting higher in the UK though. When did Sabrina became global like that

She hustled. Nonsense and Feather were sleeper hits for her, both will eventually reach a billion streams. Then not only the Eras tour opening slot in LATAM and Asia made rounds on Tiktok with videos with Swifties everywhere consuming the content, her own tour had viral moments and was very successful for its size. Her online presence has grown a lot. I remember she played here in Brazil before coming with Taylor and people were delightfully surprised with her stage presence. Putting this out the week she's playing Coachela and before Taylor drops and monopolize attention was also a smart move. Then the song is good and carefree pop. She's not trying to make any points. She's smart hustling

Taylor stimulus 

The usual token stanning it will backfire. Dula is here to stay

 

Sabrina keeps on winning and I'm happy for her. Not a fan of both songs but espresso is definitely better than delusion. A catchy and an easy hit for Sabrina 

Hasn't ATRL learned by now not to doubt Dua? 
 

Espresso is shaping up to be a cute hit for Sabrina, possibly her first real smasha, but look at the way y'all tried to say Houdini and Training Season were DOA; they're still charting. It's looking like this era might not be as big in the US as FN was but let's wait and see.
