What has Dua Lipa said about Radical Optimism?

On the album's title, Dua explains: 

"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 Lipa's Radical Optimism is released May 3 2024 via Warner Records.
