It’s a testament to how fucked up modern pop music is that Dua Lipa is really leaning into neo-disco when, if this was 20 years ago, she might come out with a true pop-rock album.
I say this because the one person I can compare Dua Lipa to from the past is Nelly Furtado. Both women have deeper voices and, all things being equal, both women would have huge success coming out with traditional pop-rock albums.
But here we are.
Lipa is pretty much just doing neo-disco. That’s it. That’s the extent of her ability to do anything interesting — disco.
In general, everything sucks.
