DUA LIPA FUTURE NOSTALGIA CRACK

DUA LIPA FUTURE NOSTALGIA CRACK

“New Rules” is only the second song by a woman to crack a billion streams on Spotify. “New Rules” and “IDGAF” rank among the most ecstatic kiss-off records in an era that produced haymakers like Rihanna’s “Needed Me” and Beyoncé’s “Sorry.” Lipa is flanked in her videos by a detail of women standing in solidarity against whatever lonesome beau blew his chance. Studying pop, dance, and rap music gave her a natural ear for hits.Ģ017’s Dua Lipa came on like a tropical depression, building slowly to a tipping point where no one could escape the winds. (You can see raw talent in old footage of Lipa singing “Say My Name” by Destiny’s Child and “No One” by Alicia Keys.) Assembling a makeshift family miles away from her biological one, while grinding in the service industry for work, gave Dua Lipa a message about friendship and perseverance that bleeds into her writing and glossy videos. She shacked up with a friend and made smart use of developments in streaming and social media, posting videos of herself performing covers of her favorite artists. Lipa left home alone at 15 to seek out opportunities in London, a few years after a job offer brought the family back to the Kosovar capital of Pristina. Born in London to parents who emigrated from Kosovo before the war in the ’90s, the singer-songwriter grew up determined to pursue a career in music. Megan Trainor was recognized in 2016 but has yet to top the run of ubiquitous singles from her debut album Title.ĭua Lipa, 2019’s Best New Artist, is playing the long game. The logic in picking Evanescence over 50 Cent in 2004 proved shaky in just three years.

Lauryn Hill was a sure bet in 1999, but we still haven’t seen a sequel to Miseducation over 20 years later.

Betting on the conscious hip-hop collective Arrested Development after the 1992 smashes “People Everyday” and “Tennessee” was smart there was no way to tell there weren’t any more big hits in the well. For every good call - like the Beatles winning in 1965, or Mariah Carey in 1991, or Adele in 2009 - there’s another that veers left. It’s keen on capturing artists in a breakout year but not so good at guessing what happens next. The Grammy for Best New Artist is something of a curse. With Future Nostalgia, Dua Lipa easily beats both the Best New Artist curse and sophomore slump.
