I love Dua but this album is a snooze fest and very boring outside of the songs that weren’t singles.

Just saw a pop base post that says pitchfork gave it a 6.6/10.

Pitchfork didn't hold back and honestly all their criticism was valid. It's a good read.

it's the same score as Taylor's new album...
i haven't listened to Radical Optimism yet, but it can't be that bad, can it?

I did a quick spin of the album and unfortunately found it boring. Nothing stood out for me to save to a playlist.

It's a shame because I enjoyed her previous 2 albums.

The album tracks are quite boring, aside from Maria which might be the one track I’ll save for the future.

The lyrics come off as generic and lacking in personality, which is a common criticism I’ve seen of her before, but I feel like in the past the catchy melodies and the interesting production made up for it. However, the melodies and the production are also boring here.

I like her but the album is deserving of the negative reviews it’s received so far. The Dua Lipa stans are trying to harass critics on Twitter but no one is even scared of them the way they’re scared of other fanbases, it’s really something to see.

she loved vacationing so much she decided to make an entire album that sounds like something you would hear at the poolside
