We should blame her. I hate to think she has no say in this and she isn't a strong woman. If her US label is scared, just do a digital only release now, and a re-release later with her upcoming collabs and songs.
Now she's going to lose most of her fanbase. This is a huge turn off and another 6 months is too much

I just want to give her a big hug right now and tell her it's all gonna be okay. I know she must have been heartbroken knowing the album had to be delayed. I swear to god, PLEASE, no more delays... I don't want her to end up like Sky Ferreira or Tinashe. Why do all the talented ones get ruined by labels? I don't ****ing get it.

Because labels have no idea to market people these days. Labels and artists have the power to untite and change the landscape, but instead of making a change and reaching for the full potential, they just try to adapt to what is out there.

I mean all the acts you named have showed some kind of potential in different markets, instead of embracing and conquering those markets, their labels seems to be blind to get a US hit, while they can make enough coins, get enough acclaim and succes in basically every other market.

It's so damn sad at this point.

I'm SO mad, these collabs will probably suck anyway. I swear, if she was the one who wanted to record them...

Poor Dua. Delayed. Again.

The pushback would have happened anyways, with ot without those collabs though. Her label is desperate for a hit in the US.

Poor her :/

Her label needs to realize that she's not going to have a US hit with the current promo game. Blow Your Mind got one televised performance in the US...

After all these pushbacks and getting deja vu's of stanning for Nicole Scherzinger. I wonder what the next step is tbh. The dumbest thing her label has done in the meantime is releasing a pre-order on iTunes. Have there been any drastic changes to pre-orders in the past? As in changing the whole tracklisting or whatever? Because what are they gonna do with the already 7 released songs? Unless they gonna extend the album. I don't see what the logic will be behind it. I mean I get we are all mad and dissapointed, but the only thing what makes me really angry to some extend at this point is the lack of sense behind it all. I mean I wouldn't have mind a pushback had her label already issued an EP release or whatever to 'get rid of some song'. But it seems like they are making Dua dig a hole and it gets deeper and deeper, without any sense of things getting better, Dua must be heartbroken.

Pelvic Thrust

Can someone post a list of her released singles and leaked songs? I didn't bother downloading her singles cos it seems like she was releasing a new song every week.

But now that the album got pushed back maybe the song she released won't make the cut so I have to download them

This thread should be closed until 2nd of May in my opinion. Nothing ita gonna happen until then..

Scandalous

the essays and fantasies in here

I knew this would happen

by the time this album releases she'll be ready to start her 2nd one

I don't know what it is with labels going for a US hit before an album release. They should have release this album after her second single and went from there.

God, that's annoying

Dua is one of the most promising artists out right now, I can't even deal. What a joke! Labels need to start taking risks, this ish is hella annoying
