Can't believe how messy this era has been aesthetically and scheduling-wise.

From Elle magazine:

She landed on the title after a friend introduced her to the concept—seeking the silver linings in an otherwise challenging world—which seemed to gel with her ethos, as a person and an artist. “It struck me,”she said in a press statement, “the idea of going through chaos gracefully and feeling like you can weather any storm.”

 

In Radical Optimism, Lipa brings together live and electronic instruments to fashion her own global groove. The result is a cosmopolitan dance-pop record with a 1970s flair, and a vibrant, resounding affirmation of life.

Just noticed there's a countdown to the album on Spotify

Looks like Dua is gonna have to compete with Kanye West, and Taylor's 3rd week. Kings of Leon are releasing the week after on May 10th.

I think she’ll stick around for a while as she usually does regardless of the debut. The label may try and go for the UK #1 though funnily enough she’s never debuted at her peak position on the albums chart yet both “Dua Lipa” and “Future Nostalgia” climbed to their peaks so we’ll see what happens here.

 

Have there been any hints yet as to what pre orders could look like?

Insert my regular "she should've released this in February-March" rant here :P

There's a pic circulating on X of the vinyl already being on an Urban Outfitters shelf

I won't mind as much if Taylor beats her, but if that POS does... <_<
