    Not happy with this album. I really liked her first album but this doesn’t do it for me. A few okay songs but that’s about it.

    With Lipa's sultry smooth vocals, synthy production and stupidly infectious singles tied with sumptuous visuals create one of the best albums of the year thus far. Mixing pop, R&B and disco, Lipa creates the perfect recipe for a Grammy... even Dua herself was aware of the cultural impact of this album - it will indeed be future nostalgia.

    Future Nostalgia is a basic pop album and that will be forgotten for a few months :(((

    Ok I have listened to it several times and it is an excellent album but it does not fit the concept of this tragic year, something more melancholic and reflective is needed.
    I hope their songs can be danced in 2021 when the quarantine ends.

    So disappointed. The album is so basic pop and all the song sound the same. I just don't think this album is THAT good.

    It's all disco pop, though the album was successful I didn't liked it no emotions though I accept the fact that her voice doesn't suite emotional songs so..

    Hindi naman maganda to, need nating ibaba yung ratings niya. Puro pangtiktok lang, di ko makitaan ng arts tong album na to. Di siya masterpiece.

    Me parece un disco muy dance, y no se disfruta a la hora de escucharlo. Los ritmos son buenos; las letras no

    I don't get it. The mass praise of what seems totally pedestrian to me. Bored. Boring. Unforgettable. No genuine joy that wasn't just built and bread in a faceless studio somewhere. Not exciting not novel just vacuous.

    Wow, Dua regreso en marzo con todo, lo mejor de este año, junto a Smile, Sawayama, Chromatica, Rare y Folklore

    Same formula, same sound. This hit-maker producers know how to please pop stans without giving anything great at all.

    Bops, sure. Lyrically, nah, very boring. Dua needs to step up her game. She's obviously very big on streaming but not quite in terms of pure sales

    Very repetitive rhythms, the main singles were well picked but most of the remaining songs on the album are a skip to me.

    the only best song on the album is physical, outside of that it is an album that does not innovate at all, it is full of samples, it does not risk anything, it is a copy of Madonna.

    The album is repetitive, every song has the same melody. We need more variety to feel those 80s sounds.

    It's fun but it feels like a lot of noise, pushing to be as hype as possible, like a less original 1989.

    It is an albun that brings elements of Thechre music with a mixture of the current one, is danceable, energetic and with a message of empowerment to women.

    Dance music, a LOT of 80s influence without much originality, short shelf life for it and most likely to be forgotten within 2 years.

    I gave the whole album a listen out of curiosity but it all kind of sounds the same, high strong pop music built specifically for the charts.

    I think she is a great person. The album is classic pop album. I liked the beats but the lyrics are kinda silly. My fav song from the album is boys will be boys.

    Dua lipa surpassed herself but it is a very commercial album, with the same sounds as always, I'm sorry but this is not the masterpiece that everyone thinks.

    It's just rehashed pop music. It's fine, but overhyped. There's nothing groundbreaking and I don't see anybody really remembering this album and its generic pop five years from now. The lyrics are subpar and the "instrumentals" sound familiar -- not in a good way, but like I could mistake them for any other pop radio hit. Pass.

    Nothing stands out rather than the production Which makes the entire album sound ok.
    Nothing much vocal nothing new.
    Just a lot of edm/dance samples

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Una copia barata de los discos de Kylie Minogue, cada canción es una versión remasterizada de la anterior, y llega a ser irritante el hecho de que se haya usado tanto sample de otros artistas.

    ni siquiera quiero alargarme dando una explicación, porque claramente dua lipa es una artista sobrevalorada, pero es blanca y son los blancos los que ponen críticas aquí ¿no es así?

    cheap. dua lipa needs to be stopped and finally be replaced by someone who gives QUALITY and not recycled tik tok music for the sake of radio and number #1s.

    Small quibbles notwithstanding, Future Nostalgia is the perfect antidote to quarantine-induced cabin fever.

    With this flawless effort, she manages to achieve both. Future Nostalgia could have just as well been titled "Future Classic."

    Make no mistake, her risks are still very within the context of a 4/4 pop structure, but she still finds such color and joy in her surroundings it's hard not to get swept up in her energy. Such risk-staking, however, can still lead to a few moments that could've used a bit more polish.
