She's a gorgeous woman and very talented but her music for me is even more bland than Ariana's. Agreed. I was excited to listen to her album after all the hype I saw on GGD but after listening I was like There’s a couple cute bops for sure but some of the songs are just not it at all. The fact Future Nostalgia got better reviews than Chromatica (88 vs 79 on Metacritic) is shockingly hilarious. on a three day bender Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I agree that there’s nothing earth-shattering about Dua’s music, I think there’s something to be said for well written, well produced pop records that are easy on the ears and catchy as all get out! I think FN is a fantastic pop record for those reasons But Ariana? BORING? Take it back Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FN in the same lane as albums such as 1989, TFM, Sawayama, MBDTF, reputation, AALIYAH simply from the amount of hit material on it. I barely skip any of the tracks on these albums and usually if I do its more-so from me having overplayed the track and getting tired of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both women are very talented. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both women are very talented. boring for you doesn't = bland tho it has an 88 metascore — the critics love it and current pop culture loves it from the sheer amount of hits its generated not to mention the future incoming ones (hallucinate, levitating, etc.) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
