    chato, nada original, precisou colocar o nome "future nostalgia" para parecer novo e nao uma cópia de musicas antigas, 1 ponto pelos produtores a qualidade da melodia é boa ate mas de resto nada original e decepcionante

    Em comparação a outros lançamentos desse ano, não achei tudo isso que estão dizendo, admiro a Dua como artista, mas fora Physical, as músicas não me agradaram muito.

    I don't often give a low score to a new album, but this collection of repetitive and basic electronic sounding tunes left me disappointed. I had really high expectations based on the critics reviews, but I really struggled to make it through the whole album. TBH, I had to skip ahead on a few songs as it was painful to make it through to the end of the tune. Over-hyped in my opinion, cannotI don't often give a low score to a new album, but this collection of repetitive and basic electronic sounding tunes left me disappointed.

    Un asco, me recomendaron escuchar el álbum por el single, q es lo único pasable lo demás lo malogra, ya veo porque la gente la llama sobrevalorada, he escuchado dos álbums del 2020 que son mejores que esta basura, me arrepiento de haberle dado una oportunidad.

    I truly enjoyed Physical and Break my Heart, but the rest? It's lacking production that follows. The last two tracks are horrendously bad, but at least she's trying to write something sort of provoking. Although it's just not enough to keep the songs playing.

    Sonidos ochenteros remasterizados, se cuelga de eso para tener fama. Ya ni al caso escuchar un álbum tan pedorro.

    Lo siento muy básico, y vacío, pero no le quita que sus singles son arte pero los no- singles no se no me dejaron satisfecho aparte de love again, creo que hubiera sido algo mejor si ponía de su parte!

    Okay, not the best. It is not that big of a hype of album. I have heard better albums that are dance/disco focused. I honestly didn’t expect something from this album and well, I stand correctly. She is a definitely a singles artist rather than an albums artists. I just don’t get the hype of the album. It’s nothing espectacular.

    Sadly this album was very overrated. There was only a couple of good songs, but the rest were very generic and boring in my opinion. None of the songs had any meaning and the beats were used in a different way over and over again. It got real boring real quick. I was just disappointed because I thought this was going to be an amazing album due to the huge hype but sadly it wasn’t :(

    The album is blatant plagiarism from Madonna's COADF, nothing new, isn't original.

    Absolutely does not live up to the hype. These are recycled Daft Punk/Madonnaesque tracks set to current thematics, vapid lyrical content and Dua's signature low-energy approach to delivering everything.

    It's fine but only to listen to it once, since the rhythm is the same in all the songs and the lyrics are very similar to each other.

    Overhyped garbage album, IDK why anybody would hype this up. None of the songs are catchy or nice, the only good song is Hallucinate the rest is boring and bland. A definite 0 from me here, especially, after all those hypes.

    Horrível, parece que ela plagiou todo mundo. Sério, Dua Lipa, melhore, parece que tu misturou Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Sia, Billie Eilish tudo numa farofada só.

    the way this album ended just didn't click for me as a whole, apart from some hits at the start the album doesn't blend as a whole for me. it sounded like a riff off of sunshine kitty by tove lo which a million times better smash and emotional than this crap!

    Basic pop album. The same washed up beats with changing rhythms. Nothing special. Overhyped. Only 3 good songs.

    This album does not have the essence of an album. It is pretty much like a cassette of a 80-90s cover songs. There is nothing unique about it and the obsession with the 80-90s sounds makes it more like a cover album than a 2020 album with 80-90s influence. I love Dua’s voice and delivery always but she just fails tofind her sound with this one. It is pretty much like an average body ofThis album does not have the essence of an album.

    Boring and repetitive. This album is full of fillings. Only Don’t start now and physical are the best songs from it. When you listen to it once you don’t want to listen to it again. Lipa tries to bring back the 80’s sound but she lost her way in the process.

    Don’t Start Now, Physical & Break My Heart are fantastic songs, but three fantastic songs don’t make a fantastic album. Sadly there are not enough new sounds on the other tracks. Hallucinate is just a different version of Break My Heart and Pretty Please seems like a slower version of Don’t Start Now. I expected way more, disappointed to be honest.

    It is awful some of the worst tracks I’ve ever heard. The music seems rushed and unfinished and is no where near her best work. She’s trying desperately to please such a weird fanbase and failing miserably to even do that.

    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.
