Dua Lipa's debut album has "at least another two singles to come", says label boss
But what should they be?
Dua Lipa's latest chart-topping single New Rules may be the sixth release from her self-titled debut album, but there's still "at least" two more singles to come off it, her label boss has said.
In an interview with Music Week, Warner Bros UK president Phil Christie praised Dua's drive and hard work over the past three years, adding that New Rules reaching the top spot on the Official Singles Chart is a "jumping off point" in the album's campaign.
"This is the sixth single off that record, so to have a Number 1 with single six is rare," he said. "But it's still just a jumping off point, we're just at the beginning of this campaign really hitting its stride."
"We've got at least another two singles to come off this record, which is a testament to the quality of the album."
Dua's singles from the collection so far are Be The One, which reached Number 9 after a re-release this year, Last Dance, Hotter Than Hell (15), Blow Your Mind (30) and Lost In Your Light (86). Let us know which songs left on the record you think should be a single below.

The album has so far peaked at Number 5 on the Official Albums Chart, and is the best-selling debut album by a female solo artist of the year so far.

Meanwhile, Christie believes that the music video treatment for Dua's New Rules was a major factor in helping it reach Number 1 on the Official Chart.
"It started to get picked up by other artists - Lorde and Camila Cabello tweeted about it - who saw it was this powerful statement."

This isn't even a question. IDGAF would smash just as hard as New Rules is if it was given a proper, clever video like the latter and thematically, it's a perfect continuation of New Rules which opens an opportunity for a Part 2 music video. IDGAF is instantly catchy and extremely relatable. And the acronym IDGAF is extremely trendy and current. It would go down as a perfect reflection of the millennial times. That guitar riff is perfect for radio too. If not IDGAF, then Begging is the next best option for a smash single. It's very catchy, the message is cute, and the chorus goes hard. Lastly, if her team suddenly turns dumb and doesn't pick either IDGAF or Begging for the next two singles, their next best options would be No Goodbye (has a very catchy beat drop which is very trendy nowadays on radio) and Genesis (a very catchy song, perfect for wedding dances, could be a timeless classic if promoted correctly). Dreams could smash as well and so could Bad Together, but those are merely bonus tracks so the chances of them ever being radio singles are slim.

Begging and Garden are shouting to be released. But Genesis and No Goodbyes are freaking awesome as well.

How many songs are even on the album? Might as well make them all singles then. What's the 'music video treatment?'

IDGAF has to be one of them.
