Dua Lipa unveils new album title

Dua Lipa has finally revealed the title for her highly-anticipated second album.

Following the release of her new single "Don't Start Now" last month, Dua Lipa has finally unveiled the title for her second LP.

Dua Lipa shared an image with the album title - Future Nostalgia - tattooed on the inside of her left arm yesterday (1 December).

Speaking about her follow up to her 2017 self-titled debut album, Dua Lipa says, "What I wanted to do with this album was to break out of my comfort zone and challenge myself to make music that felt like it could sit alongside some of my favourite classic pop songs, whilst still feeling fresh and uniquely mine. I was inspired by so many artists on the new record from Gwen Stefani to Madonna to Moloko to Blondie and Outkast, to name just a few."

Dua Lipa adds, "Because of the time that I’d spent on the road touring with my band I wanted Future Nostalgia to have a lot more of a live element, but mixed together with modern electronic production. My sound has naturally matured a bit as I’ve grown up but I wanted to keep the same pop sensibility as I had on the first record. I remember that I was on my way to a radio show in Las Vegas thinking about the direction for this new record and I realised that what I wanted to make was something that felt nostalgic but had something fresh and futuristic about it too."

Future Nostalgia is yet to get a release date. Dua Lipa will play London's O2 Arena on 26 and 27 May 2020. Tickets go on sale Friday (6 December) from 9am GMT. Find out more.
