Pop queen Dua Lipa is back with the highly anticipated release of her third studio album, Radical Optimism.
The 11-track record features lead singles ‘Houdini’ and ‘Training Season’, and is inspired by Dua’s own self-discovery. Working with a team of collaborators including Caroline Ailin, Danny L. Harle, Tobias Jesso Jr. and Kevin Parker, Radical Optimism taps into the pure joy and happiness of having clarity in situations that once seemed impossible to face.
Radical Optimism Tracklist:
Speaking about the album, Dua says: “A couple years ago, a friend introduced me to the term Radical Optimism. It’s a concept that resonated with me, and I became more curious as I started to play with it and weave it into my life. It struck me – the idea of going through chaos gracefully and feeling like you can weather any storm. At the same time, I found myself looking through the music history of psychedelia, trip hop, and Britpop. It has always felt so confidently optimistic to me, and that honesty and attitude is a feeling I took into my recording sessions.”
