RADICAL OPTIMISM
by DUA LIPA
Radical Optimism is the third studio album by Dua Lipa, released 3 May 2024 and preceded by the UK Top 5 singles Houdini and Training Season.
Announcing the album on March 13 2024, Dua said: "A couple of 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."
Dua worked with a team of core collaborators throughout the project, including Caroline Ailin, Danny L. Harle, Tobias Jesso Jr. and Kevin Parker.
Radical Optimism successfully landed straight in at Number 1 on the Official Albums Chart with the biggest opening week for a British female since Adele's 30 three years earlier.
