    IMPECABLE production. Beautiful vocal delivery by Lipa. Great theme and sonically very pleasing. Full of bops, it’s funky, lighthearted, fun and retrospective at the same time. All tracks are good, some are great and Don’t Start Now is a MASTERPIECE at every category. Great sophomore by Lipa, she’s proven that she is here to stay and will become one of the greatest on the industry. AfterIMPECABLE production. Beautiful vocal delivery by Lipa.

    This album is almost perfect. Not too long like the bloated, 34-song abominations that rap artists put out these days, and no sleepers. Every song is catchy and will get stuck in my head for hours if I listen to it. I cannot stress how much I like this. The only thing I don't like is the Good in Bed song, which wasn't bad but didn't hold up to the standards of the other, near perfectThis album is almost perfect.

    A bop after bop after bop; "Future Nostalgia" has everything to make you dance, and even though I didn't really like the last two songs (I think it would've been better if she just left them out), it doesn't change a thing about how magnificent this album is.

    Dua Lipa manages to consecrate herself as one of the most famous artists with her second studio album, demonstrating that her nostalgic sounds combine perfectly with the futuristic ones. Statics and singles are very well chosen.

    É daqueles álbuns que chega ao final e você dá graças a Deus que o Spotify tem transição entre uma música e outra porque aí ele começa de novo e entra naquele loop eterno de quando a gente encontra um novo vício.

El álbum encapsula una variedad de sonidos específicos que nos transportan automáticamente a las décadas de los 80's y 90's, donde una mezcla entre el disco, funk y dance inundaban la mayor parte de clubes nocturnos. Dua se hace valer de este recurso, la nostalgia por el pasado, para reinventarse a sí misma y a toda la escena pop en general.

    Desde himnos bailables y llenos de energía, como lo son "Don't Start Now" y "Physical", hasta canciones con una atmósfera más relajada y sofisticada, "Pretty Please" y "Boys Will Be Boys", el álbum está lleno de joyas musicales que seguramente se convertirán en clásicos.

    Future Nostalgia llega a desmentir el mito de que las segundas partes no son tan buenas como las primeras, de hecho logra superar por mucho a su predecesor trabajo "Dua Lipa" al grado de que podría considerarse como un proyecto demasiado ostentoso y pretensioso. Sin embargo, la británica opta por desafiar sus propios límites y explotar al máximo su creatividad como artista para mostrarnos una nueva faceta de ella, la de popstar.

    Tracks favoritos:
    1. Physical
    2. Hallucinate
    3. Don't Start Now
    4. Break My Heart

    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.
