    Um hinário do POP, SÓ MUSICÃO, e ainda tem quente que vem me dizer que não está bom... Me economiza.

    Resumindo, conceito, coesão e aclamação.

    Future Nostalgia takes old sounds and modernizes them for a great album. The singles are the strongest songs out of this album though.

    The album is close to pop perfection. Dua Lipa has proven that cohesiveness in musical production can't do no wrong. Not only does she manipulate the retro materials masterfully, she also turns the genre on its head and gives pop the renaissance it deserves.

    Álbum mostra pouca coerência entre as faixas presentes, contento pouca coesão em quesito a melodia dos mesmos. Porém com boa produção em todas as músicas do álbum, o que não o deixa coerente.

    this album is a smash simply 10/10. Dua Lipa is bringing pop back addressing misogyny, sex, and female empowerment in a fun groovy way. There are so skips on the album and i don’t say that lightly. completely blown away to be fair!

    One of the best albums this decade. This album showed growth of Dua Lipa while reminiscing her childhood, The album is very cohesive compared to other pop album released passed. Dua Lipa still has a lot to show further and this album makes me very excited for what could Dua show for the next record.

    Amazing! All the songs have a high quality and Dua's vocals shine even though there is not a real ballad in this album, which is very upbeat and fun. She takes elements from songs from the 70s, 80s and 90s but they sound fresh and are even lyrically interesting. Congratulations Dua!

    Well producted, exciting and fresh. It’s smart because try to combine what the young like to listen and what people from others generations liked when trey were young. There is no bad song but some of them have different vibes so you may like some very much and don’t add in your playlist others. After all its a very dancing album with good lyrics and a lot of good surprises.

    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.
