Dua Lipa 'Radical Optimism' Album Release Date

According to Dua Lipa's Instagram post, she revealed that "Radical Optimism" will be released on May 3, 2024.

Explaining the album title and where she got it, Dua revealed that a friend had introduced her to "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," she said in a press release. "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."

Pre-orders for Dua Lipa's "Radical Optimism" started Mar. 13, 2024. "Radical Optimism" has a lot going on its back, as "Future Nostalgia" received multiple accolades, including a Grammy for Pop Vocal Album and a BRIT for British Album of the Year in 2021.

It was also received positively by critics and fans, so it's interesting to see whether Lipa can meet (and/or surpass) the expectations with the new album.
