    The challenge of making the second album as exciting as the first. Dua was right to see the trend of pop music and bring us the 80s and 90s to the fore, with a dance, fun and refreshing album. Dua Lipa shows that she wants to be a legend and she is going the right way with Future Nostalgia.

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

    The only reason I haven't given this a perfect score is due to the last two tracks, which personally I feel let the record down. HOWEVER, the rest of the album is incredible. It's modern, but also an instant classic. he production is slick and cohesive, and her voice (compared to her last last) sits every song perfectly. This is one hell of surprising album.

    Dua's vocals and strong attitude are a highlight for this album, and there are some standout pieces like Boys will be Boys and Future Nostalgia (title track). In a sea of music reviving the disco pop and retro era-style music, the album definitely stands out as a whole. However, from song to song, the production felt really similar and the composition wasn't particularly unique.

However, from song to song, the production felt really similar and the composition wasn't particularly unique. The lyricism was fairly basic and a little too on the nose sometimes, and the subject matter was rather simple as well. However, it was a great effort, fun to jam to, and Dua has a solid career in pop ahead of her.… Expand

    Incredible Pop-Disco fusion album inspired by sounds of the 1980s and 1990s. 11 tracks long, with no filler. The strongest tracks include Physical, Don’t Start Now, and Hallucinate. Their are only 2 skips on this album in my opinion: Cool and Boys Will Be Boys.

    Future Nostalgia é exatamente o que o título propõe, uma retomada do que foi o pop na era disco, ao mesmo tempo em que é vestido em uma roupagem do que se comercializa atualmente. A produção desse álbum é muito sofisticada e detalhista, você se embala na instrumentação, nos arranjos, na voz, e nas letras.

    Future Nostalgia slaps hard. It´s a tremendous improvement from her last album. It has amazing songs, amazing and meaningful lyrics, such as the songs Future Nostalgia and Boys will be boys. It mixes similar sounds from the 80´s and the early 2000s giving us an incredible set of songs that you can definitely listen to everyday. Don´t star now is one of the most fresh songs from the album.Future Nostalgia slaps hard. It´s a tremendous improvement from her last album.

    Future Nostalgia es cultural reset! El álbum es increíble, no tiene ni una sola mala canción! Es uno de los mejores álbumes del 2020; que seguro es nominado a los Grammys, y probablemente también sea ganador. Dua Lipa se superó, demostró lo talentosa que es y puede llegar a ser!!!

    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.

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

    这张专辑制作精美，是有史以来最好的大二专辑之一。它带您回到1980年，让您想跳舞 。我记得当我第一次听这个女孩的音乐时，我以为这是一个典型的女孩流行音乐，很快就会消失。但是不，您向世界展示了自己的能力。这张专辑是2020年最佳专辑之一。

    I love this album so much and it’s definitely one of the best albums released this year (2020), but i think it has some skips and weak songs that i don’t really like. But it’s definitely a great album to be nominated to AOTY!

    Dua Lipa managed to bring references from Madonna and Daft Punk in the 80s, I am in love with this work. We were able to see the evolution of Dua Lipa as an artist between his first and his current work in a splendid way.

    Arguably, the best album of 2020. Back to when everyone thought Dua would fade as a classic one-hit wonder of 2017. She would return back with a 70s-80s influenced dance-pop disco album and do a full 180 degree! The highlights in this album are definitely Levitating, Hallucinate, Pretty please, Physical, love again, break my again and don’t start now.

    Dua Lipa demuestra porque sin duda es la promesa del Pop al traernos esta obra de arte, muy variada que nos recuerda mucho a la biblia que nos dio Madonna Confessions On A Dancefloor Launch Graphics.

    Se é nostalgia que queriam terão,pois o albúm cumpri o que o título sugeriu,sem dúvidas traz um ar nostalgico com músicas dançantes e bem escritas,sem dúvidas uma boa volta aos 80 com aquele ar nostalgico embalado por baladinhas bem dançantes. Um albúm gostosinho do inicío ao fim

    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.
