Dua Lipa Radical Optimism LP (Clear Vinyl)

Inspired by Dua's own self-discovery, Radical Optimism is an album that taps into the pure joy and happiness of having clarity in situations that once seemed impossible to face. The hard goodbyes and vulnerable beginnings that previously threatened to crush your soul, become milestones as you choose optimism and start to move with grace through the chaos. Infused with the energy of Dua's hometown, London, the attitude of the album embodies the rawness, honesty, confidence and freedom of '90s Britpop. Radical Optimism transports its listener to a dreamy pop world rich in musicality, lyrically unapologetic and sonically liberating. The 3x GRAMMY® and 7x Brit Award-winning global pop powerhouse worked with a team of core collaborators throughout the project including Caroline Ailin, Danny L. Harle, Tobias Jesso Jr. and Kevin Parker.

Compared to her previous work, Radical Optimism is comfortable in its looseness, a simple set of chilled-out, dance-pop bops that lightens the spirit...and gets the body moving...as Lipa processes solo life and emotional growth with her head held high....Optimism is packed with truly insidious earworms that take a minute to sink in, but then refuse to release listeners, who will be humming 'Houdini,' 'Illusion,' and 'Training Season' long after the album ends.
