Dua Lipa’s fans have reason to rejoice as the singer has unveiled the specifics of her upcoming album titled ‘Radical Optimism’. The album, comprising 11 tracks, will debut on May 3, featuring the previously released singles ‘Houdini’ and ‘Training Season’, Variety reported.
The album cover features Dua immersed in water, mere feet away from a shark.
The announcement characterizes the album as drawing inspiration from the vibrant energy of Dua’s hometown, London, as well as the rawness, honesty, confidence, and freedom emblematic of ’90s Britpop.
In an announcement, she said, “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,” she added.
This update has generated immense excitement among her fans.
“Dua girl this album is just gonna be incredible! I can already imagine how hard u worked on it and how insane this album is gonna be oooh man I’m excited,” a fan expressed.
“I just can’t wait for it,” another one wrote.
