    The deluxe cover for Future Nostalgia was pretty nice

    I’ve noticed a lot of acoustic versions of songs coming out lately. This is cool and all but not really the type of track I want an acoustic version of. The production of the original version really makes the song better, stripping it back takes a lot of the vibes away. I’m glad they didn’t do this for Houdini at least

    They are releasing a ton of different versions so the songs won’t flop. I don’t even remember how many versions Cardi dropped for her last single but it was a BIG number

    I’m not a fan of this one neither but I’m glad that they do it.

    Dua comes across like a fake artist/industry plant imo.

    Her last album was great and she's a good singer (hot too, obvs) but there's something manufactured about her. She's bland as f--- in interviews too.

    I kinda agree but at the same time don't give a s--- either. Never watch interviews etc. Sometimes u got artists acting so 'cool' making lame jokes or wearing sunglasses (lamest thing ever imo) but in the end... To me its the quality of the music is what matters , nothing else.

    Looking good. Also, this single sounds like it’ll be better than training season. I still think Houdini is the best single though, but I’ll have to wait until the full version of “Illusion” is out.

    Oh I liked it a lot too, but I like how bouncy the Illusion snippet sounds more right now

    Maybe they are hoping for this to pop off and carry the rest of the month
