    O álbum é autêntico e original. As músicas não são genéricas, as letras são ótimas, com atenção especial nas faixas "Physical" e "Cool".

    ALBUM OF THE YEAR 2020! Future Nostalgia is a pop perfection with a genre of 80-90s disco pop with highly influenced by madonna & kylie minogue. The album will make you can't stop jamming to it. Dua Lipa always serve a best quality pop music & her discography will never aged. Dua Lipa is truly a 'main pop girl' material.

    Dua really came thru! Each and every song feels like so 2020s and yet so 1980s! Beware of the rise of this decade's best pop star!

    O album tem uma construção muito boa, ele começa bem nostalgico, já é possivel sentir a essência do album nas 5 primeiras músicas, Dua consegue mesclar os singles com músicas mais softs porém dançantes como Cool e Levitating. Sem dúvidas o ponto alto do album é "Love Again".

    okey, Dua Lipa did THAT. She just saved the pop music this year. This album is the magna carta of what the reinvention of an artist is. She made a completely evolution of herself throght something tasteful in sound, good lyrics and a fusion of modern and retro atmosphere. She deserves all the success she have been archiving. God saves the future of Pop!

    Irresponsibly high quality disco revival whirlwind. Aside from that one song (great messaging I am a thorough endorser of misandry) whose sappiness does nothing for me, what a delightful sophomore effort.

    Favourite tracks: Pretty Please, Levitating, Don't Start Now
    Least favourite: Boys Will Be Boys

    the carefree, youthful feel this has is somewhat refreshing and great. not everything has to have a deep meaning or serve some big purpose, some things are perfectly fine being cheerful and fun -this is one of those things. my only complaint here is that BWBB should've been replaced with either Berlin Summer or If It Ain't Me, but by no means does one song take away how good FN is.

    Just as I had heard by many people, Dua Lipa’s second album, Future Nostalgia, was phenomenal. Her new sound with confident melodies, complicated basslines, and creativity with guitars and synths make a grand majority of Future Nostalgia’s songs a blast to listen to. Even the “extra” songs slapped onto the end with the “Moonlight Edition” can be really well done as well.

    I really wish I could have included my entire song-by-song commentary, but that would push my review past the character limit.

    Overall, I was extremely pleased by Dua Lipa’s most recent release. In pretty much every song, everything fit so well together despite each track being so loaded with complicated bass, synth, and guitar parts. I’m definitely a fan of this new sound from Dua Lipa and I really hope she releases another album very soon. Until then, I am more than happy listening to the many songs from Future Nostalgia that caught my attention. If you love pop and haven’t listened to all of Future Nostalgia, you absolutely should. Highlights: Future Nostalgia, Don’t Start Now, Cool, Physical, Levitating (both versions), Hallucinate, Love Again, Break My Heart, Boys Will Be Boys, Fever, We’re Good, Prisoner, If It Ain’t Me, and Un Día.    … Expand

    Miss Dua Lipa really released the best album of the year and we just... let her get away with it. It's important to address the way she misconstructed and redefined what it meant to convey and obtain the concupiscent anomalistic clearance showing us that idiosyncratic is ebulliently inevitable while simultaneously substantiating the superiority of women.

    “Depois de apresentar um álbum de estreia bom, mas um tanto repetitivo e por vezes sem graça, Dua Lipa mostra uma grande evolução trazendo um disco bem produzido, com composições inteligentes e uma vibe pop-disco bem feita que há anos não se via na indústria musical”

    Surgindo em 2017 junto com uma leva de artistas pop em ascensão, a jovem britânica de ascendência albanesa Dua Lipa    “Depois de apresentar um álbum de estreia bom, mas um tanto repetitivo e por vezes sem graça, Dua Lipa mostra uma grande evolução trazendo um disco bem produzido, com composições inteligentes e uma vibe pop-disco bem feita que há anos não se via na indústria musical”

    Surgindo em 2017 junto com uma leva de artistas pop em ascensão, a jovem britânica de ascendência albanesa Dua Lipa começou lentamente a atrair a atenção do público europeu com seu álbum self-titled, sendo catapultada mundialmente através da canção “New Rules”, seu maior hit até então e que alcançou o top 10 da Billboard Hot 100. Com um pop chiclete e que valorizava a sua distinta voz, Dua Lipa trilhou um caminho sem grandes obstáculos com as músicas “One Kiss”, “Electricity” e “IDGAF” alcançado um bom desempenho comercial e mais tarde ela abocanhando 2 vitórias no Grammy Awards 2019. Parecia ser só uma questão de tempo até a sua consolidação no cenário pop... Acho que podemos dizer que com o “Future Nostalgia” ela conseguiu.

    Com claras influências do pop disco dos anos 70 e 80, somados ao synthpop e electropop, o álbum traz as pistas de discoteca novamente para a época atual nos fazendo dançar e nos elevando às alturas com os 37 minutos do disco, com um destaque especial para as faixas “Don’t Start Now”, “Physical” e “Love Again” que são os pontos altos do álbum. Soma-se isso a uma forte identidade visual e uma produção que, mesmo retomando a trabalhos de artistas como Madonna e Kylie Minogue, consegue soar original e autêntica.

    O álbum se mantém coeso e coerente com sua proposta por quase toda a sua duração, algumas faixas são mais fortes que outras e ele acaba escorregando nas 2 faixas finais “Good In Bed” e “Boys Will Be Boys”, que soam descoladas do projeto e um tanto clichês, tanto nos refrões quanto em suas temáticas que não são desenvolvidas o suficiente para justificarem suas inserções no disco.

    No fim das contas o “Future Nostalgia” é uma agradável surpresa entre os lançamentos da atualidade, Dua Lipa apresentou um grande amadurecimento artístico e embora seja um projeto com algumas falhas ele se mantém um nível acima de grande parte dos álbuns lançados nesse ano, com inteligência e perspicácia se sagrando como um dos melhores álbuns pop dos últimos anos e que será lembrado ainda por muito tempo.    … Expand

Many of these songs will be played at clubs and parties and everyone will be dancing along. Such good vibrations! A perfect pop album.

    Future Nostalgia is definitely the Best Album of the year already, but I don’t think is a 100 album, my grade for this unexpected but fabulous album is a 80, the album stars with incredible songs that we already knew but when we hear “Cool” a new song that fits perfect before “Physical” we fall in love more with Dua, everything is amazing except for the end where “Good in Bed” and “BoysFuture Nostalgia is definitely the Best Album of the year already, but I don’t think is a 100 album, my grade for this unexpected but fabulous album is a 80, the album stars with incredible songs that we already knew but when we hear “Cool” a new song that fits perfect before “Physical” we fall in love more with Dua, everything is amazing except for the end where “Good in Bed” and “Boys will be boys” really destroy the vibe of the album, they feel like fillers, terrible for and album of 11 tracks on my opinion. To me the album finishes on the track number 9 “Break my heart”. My favorite songs that we didn’t hear before are definitely “Pretty Please” and “Levitating” .

    The sound of the album is really really good and the way they played with the effects makes this album even better with allot of different textures and spaces. The rhythms are so awesome and they make u wanna dance.

    Her voice simple as usual but fabulous like never before. She show that she can play with her tone and give us different textures in this album not like her debut self titled “Dua Lipa”. The simplicity of her singing but with incredibly good technic makes this album not pretentious and terribly enjoyable.

    Can’t wait to see more of Dua in the future.    … Expand

    Dua Lipa's voice doesn't sound special at all for me but she managed to put together her masterpiece. The disco influence and the instrumental make this album probably the best one of 2020 so far. It could be way better if you just cut out Good In Bed, though.

    Aunque el nuevo álbum de Dua Lipa está muy dentro del promedio y su Pop realmente no propone nada nuevo, lo que logra junto a sus 11 productores, es expandir el concepto de lo Disco, Retro Dance con sonidos futuristas y revivirlo 40 años después.

    Aunque el nuevo álbum de Dua Lipa está muy dentro del promedio y su Pop realmente no propone nada nuevo, lo que logra junto a sus 11 productores, es expandir el concepto de lo Disco, Retro Dance con sonidos futuristas y revivirlo 40 años después. Las ventajas que se pueden encontrar en "Future Nostalgia" es que aquella memoria de los 80s se adapta con efectividad a la demanda actual de Pop y fácilmente impulsa a sys fanáticos a bailar y cantar sobre amor y desamor con algo de empoderamiento. La voz de Dua Lipa se mezcla bien con la producción y varias canciones serán agradables de revisitar gracias a productores como Ian Kirkpatrick, Stuart Price, el gran SG Lewis, watt y The Monsters & Strangerz. En general, aunque no es nada espectacular, lo que Dua Lupa hace bien en su nuevo álbum es unir aquello que no se debe de perder de la esencia de los 80s con la calidad musical actual.

    Even if the new album of Dua Lipa is very average and her Pop doesn't propose something new, what she achieves along with 11 producers is to expand the concept of Disco, Retro-Dance with futuristic sounds and bring it back 40 years after. The advantage that can be found in "Future Nostalgia" is that 80's memory well adapted to the actual Pop demand and easily inspires its fanatics to dance and sing about love and heartbreaks with some empowerment. Dua Lipa's voice is well mixed with the production and that's thanks to producers Ian Kirkpatrick, Stuart Price, the great SG Lewis, watt, and The Monsters & Strangerz. In general, even if this is nothing spectacular, what Dua Lipa does right in her new album is to join that that must not be lost of the 80s essence with the quality of actual music.    … Expand

    Officially the first great pop record of our fledgling decade. A sign of artistic growth. This album is STACKED from top to bottom. It has all the greatest things about pop music.

It has all the greatest things about pop music. Unlike her other releases this has cohesion and versatility. The song writing is tight and manufactured effortlessly to fill the dance floors vacated by this pandemic. It's genuine feel good music with a purpose like the epic closer "boys will be boys" where she goes on a scathing dissection of patriarchy and confrontation of those who support it. This record feels breezy and like an instant classic that will be remembered amongst the likes of Kylie Minogue,lady gaga ,Beyonce, Madonna and many others.… Expand

    always knew dua lipa was going to be big, in future nostalgia, she just confirmed that. a body of work that flows beautifully and leaves you wanting more. although i still haven't clicked with "boys will be boys" - the song is not bad at all, i just find its lyrics too easy and cliché but very important & production-wise is a bit disconnected to the rest, this is already on my top 2 ofalways knew dua lipa was going to be big, in future nostalgia, she just confirmed that. a body of work that flows beautifully and leaves you wanting more. although i still haven't clicked with "boys will be boys" - the song is not bad at all, i just find its lyrics too easy and cliché but very important & production-wise is a bit disconnected to the rest, this is already on my top 2 of albums of the year.

    I think it’s a perfect mix of dancing songs with a love scent. Every song in the album is really good, and I think that you could switch the order of the track list and it still would be telling us the same story.

    A evolução da artista em apenas 1 album de diferença é surreal. Dua achou seu som em um tempo curtíssimo, coisa que outras artistas não conseguiram em 20 anos. Com um album coeso e inovador, a artista se estabelece como uma das maiores da nova geração.

Dua Lipa is the new pop princess and has everything she needs to became a pop queen. Hallucinate and Cool can be the next singles to make her chart topper in 2020. Love this album so much!

    Dua Lipa just won the year! She got the right way to do the literal best pop/disco influenced we've seen, since Carly Rae with E•MO•TION. I don't have words or adjectives to use as a description to these songs, her passion and compromise with the hole aesthetic era. I F* word love what she's just done here. AOTY WITH ANY DOUBT.

    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.
