Sebastiaan De Graaf 201 Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Okay, so there is a pop girl named Dua Lipa who broke through with the summer song "New Rules". It reached #1 in a lot of (Europian) countries and even entered the top 10 of the USA. Now that she is famous, everyone calls her a main pop girl and someone we are going to see more from. "IDGAF" succesfully peaked into the top 10, even though it didn't smash in the US. Now she also has "One Kiss" with Calvin Harris and it's in the top 10 for months now. Honestly, I don't see much in this Dua Lipa. She is beautiful and she has an unique voice, but her stage presence is very bad and she can't really sing Musically she is decent but nothing groundbreaking. She hasn't invented a new trend, she constantly follows them and thinks she can pull of a Beyoncé Heck, some people even think she will be one of the next pop queens but she really has to show us what she is capable of. Her songwriting skills are mediocore.. Some people on GGD even claimed it's the best thing since "The Fame" "New Rules" is a low budget music video but managed to get more than 1 billion views, something Bad Romance couldn't achieve in 9 years Don't get me wrong, she makes decent pop music but the hype is not deserved in my opinion. There are other pop girls who deserve more, for example Bebe Rexha, Halsey, Carly Rae Jepsen and even Jessie J and Zara Larsson.. should I name more?

Suspiria 10,683 Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 I do agree. She's good, I have no issue with her. Her stuff is all of a respectable quality. But nothing she's done so far is unique or creative - everything is just so trendy about her. Plus she didn't even write her biggest hit... So I just can't see her becoming an icon as of yet - but you never know, maybe she'll develop over time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

monster4life231 4,304 Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Welcome to the club. Her music is so boring and she can’t sing or perform. Not sorry. It’s the truth. But at least she’s made a name for herself and managed to climb to the top of the charts. We all have to make a living somehow. spread peace - #MJInnocent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
REALITY 76,706 Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 I watched one performance of her at the Graham Norton show and it wasn't good. I like New Rules, but I don't know, she didn't have any stage presence, nor could she really sing. 𝔊𝔬𝔬𝔡𝔟𝔶𝔢, ℑ'𝔩𝔩 𝔰𝔢𝔢 𝔶𝔬𝔲 𝔦𝔫 𝔪𝔶 𝔡𝔯𝔢𝔞𝔪𝔰 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryJaneHolland 77,348 Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 And when will GGD stop calling everyone who is currently successful overrated? Yall acting like they have to reinvent the wheel. Be glad there is a successful female out there in a business that's currently dominated by rap and men. This was her first album, so obviously they had to dumb it down a little bit so they can sell her. People who have been to her show say she is much more alive in smaller venues. I think her voice is decent, it's not all about high notes and whistles. And all those girlies that you named aren't any better Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHALLOW 16,418 Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 I think One Kiss and New Rules are overrated, also she doesn't have a great stage presence but she herself is not that bad. I really like her tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
swakby 4,100 Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 She did a cover of 'Tears dry on their own' which is the only thing that she did that I truly enjoyed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAGAXABO 390 Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Well... She CAN sing, but her stage presence is sh*t. Her whole album is really good though... and sort of different. She is massive here in the UK. Massive! Monster in Scotland Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
