Dua Lipa's new album, Radical Optimism, will be released on May 3

Right on time for summer. After months of suspense, Dua Lipa announced the title, the tracklist, the cover but above all the release date of her next album. Radical Optimism will be in stores on May 3 and will feature 11 tracks including the single Houdini, which has already had more than 300 million plays on Spotify, and its latest hit Training Season, unveiled in February on the Grammy Awards stage in Los Angeles. Angeles.

The name of the album was suggested to him “by a friend” who introduced him to the term Radical Optimism. “It’s a concept that resonated with me,” explains the British singer in a press release. I was struck by the idea of ​​moving through chaos with grace and feeling like you can weather any storm.” With this album, the international pop star reconnects with London, “his hometown”, to make Radical Optimism an honest, raw but above all free album, in the image of Britpop of the 90s.

In recent years - and since the reissue of Future Nostalgia, his second album - the British star has been discreet. Fans had to settle for a few collaborations, including Elton John on Cold Heart in 2021 or Calvin Harris and Young Thug on Potion in 2022. Last May, Dua Lipa made a brief appearance in Greta Gerwig's blockbuster Barbie, playing a mermaid Barbie. At the same time, she unveiled what will become the summer 2023 hit, Dance The Night. To date, the single has over 700 million streams on Spotify.

In November, Dua Lipa made her true comeback. To honor the memory of the magician Houdini, the singer released an eponymous single. The public discovers her new look, precursor of a new era: the 28-year-old star has swapped her natural brown for a dye with red highlights. She confirmed her new identity in February, on the Grammy Awards stage, corseted in a black leather bodysuit and revealing, for the first time, Training Season, her single in search of romantic stability.

His new musical project reflects his change in appearance, more mature and electric. “The album is different, it’s still pop, but it’s different sonically, it will be more lyrical,” she confided in December, during an interview with NME. If I told you the title, everything would make sense, but I think we still have to wait. Fans must therefore wait until May 3. The album is already available for pre-order with offers ranging from 15 (for the CD version) to 102 dollars (for an “ultimate pack”).
