Megan Thee Stallion & Dua Lipa - new collab out March 11th

[POP!]

It's rumored to be called "Candy Shop" and to contain a sample of the 50 Cent song of the same name.



Surely this will finally give Dua her first Hot 100 #1??

 

[RJN]

If this gets stuck at number 2...

 

[POP!]

I like how she’s skipped her Like a Prayer-COADF and is going straight to her Hard Candy era.

Let’s hope it’s more of a surprise Bedtime Stories era

 

[Jark]

it's called Sweetest Pie. I'm reading that it doesn't sample Candy Shop after all but lettuce see.

 

[Pipo]

I mean, OH MY FUCKING GOD.

 

[Jark]

 

[POP!]

I'd PRE-SAVE this hot shit if that actually meant anything.

 

[Pipo]

Ok, so, she might have done something

(unlike me, who doesn't know how to embed an audio from freaking IG)

 

[RJN]

Sounds like a HIT. Not the most original and it doesn't do anything new, but its catchy. US number one seems likely to me?

 

[Jark]

the song is nothingy and dull and disjointed, but at least it's not actively bad - unlike the video, which is truly hideous. hideous CGI and editing, absolute nonsense set-ups that bear no relevance to the song whatsoever. Dave Myers should be embarrassed.

 

[KindaCool]

I agree. The video is very bizarre. But the song is decent. I suspect it will be a grower I think.

 

[Pipo]

I'm a Little Lipper and I love this

 

[Funky]

NOT here for this!

 

[OutSynk]

All that for this nothing of a song?

 

[Darcus & Carnivus]

5/10

 

[RJN]

Personally, I’m still forcing myself to like it. I’ll see how I feel next week

 

[Pipo]

NOT here for this!

We never pretended you were going to!

 

[SystemAddict]

Disappointed about the lack of a spoken word tribute to FLANGE FLANS.

 

[Halli]

its not bad on first listen, thats a big ole video by todays standards though

 

[Pipo]

CGI works when it's done right but this is terrible. I can't believe they wasted an opportunity it CAMP IT UP in the video but then again, this is more aimed at straights I guess.

 

[passthatdutch]

Hmm this is OK, but not what I want from Dua. I guess the writing was on the wall for this new direction following the Da Baby and Pop Smoke collaborations last year, but coupled with the split from her management, I fear the third album will not be one for the gays. A shame if that transpires as she's been one of the few pop stars that brings good pop music to the charts these days.

 

[POP!]

I like this

But it's nothing groundbreaking, and is probably a bit too SUBDUED/prudish to have the shelf life of Dua's last few hits.

It's predicted to debut top ten on the Hot 100 anyway:

 

[Jark]

if this snags a top 10 debut on the Hot 100 it'll surely sink like a stone. it's already down to 10 on Spotify, and we all know Charli's new album will be claiming spots 1-12 by tomorrow. I wish you an ounce of good luck in the face of such chart candy, Mega Lipa!

So what happened with this? Was it as much of a disaster as the DISCOURSE suggests? And if so why? I quite liked it

 

[dUbsday Blue]

Also Megan has a new song called Plan B out tomorrow

 

[RJN]

Personally, I’m still forcing myself to like it. I’ll see how I feel next week

I don’t think I listened again after this

 

[Jark]

because it's shit hun. worse than that, it's boring!

and yes. a disastrous 60m streams says its came and went without ever cumming.

 

[dUbsday Blue]

but loads of boring things do well

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Dull song and the Montero copycat video is a nono

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Also does it officially 'sample'/ credit 'Movin' Too Fast' or is it one of those Ed Sheeran-type things?

It does seem to be stabilizing a bit in the States and I think rebounded a bit this week thx to some #payola.
