Dua Lipa

Released as singles, the defiant tropical house of “Hotter Than Hell” and “Lost In Your Light”’s love-giddy electro-pop have already established Dua Lipa as a pop powerhouse distinguished by her husky, soulful voice. Now, on a debut album inspired by past relationships, she gets to showcase her striking range. From the stinging dismissal of a remorseful ex (“IDGAF”) to a tender duet with Chris Martin (“Homesick”), the Londoner’s richly emotive singing and songwriting maintain her steeply upward trajectory.

Future Nostalgia is the second studio album by English singer Dua Lipa. Lipa began working on the album in early 2018, enlisting writers and producers such as Jeff Bhasker, Ian Kirkpatrick, Stuart Price, The Monsters and the Strangerz and others in order to create a pop record with a "nostalgic" and electronic feel. "Don't Start Now" was released as the album's lead single on 1 November 2019. The song attained both critical and commercial success, becoming her seventh top 10 entry on the UK Singles Chart and first top three entry on the US Billboard Hot 100.
