Future Nostalgia is the upcoming second studio album by English singer Dua Lipa. It is scheduled to be released on 3 April 2020 by Warner Records.[1] Lipa began working on the album in early 2018, enlisting writers and producers such as Jeff Bhasker, Ian Kirkpatrick, Stuart Price, The Monsters and the Strangerz and others in order to create a pop record with a "nostalgic" and electronic feel.[2]

Two singles and one promotional single have been released from the album. "Don't Start Now" was released as the album's lead single on 1 November 2019. The song attained both critical and commercial success, becoming her seventh top 10 entry on the UK Singles Chart and second top 10 entry on the US Billboard Hot 100. The title track of the album was released as a promotional single on 13 December 2019. "Physical" was released as the second single from the album on 31 January 2020. In order to promote the album, Lipa announced the Future Nostalgia Tour, consisting of 24 shows in Europe and commencing in April 2020.[3]

Musically, Future Nostalgia has been described by Lipa as a "dancercise class". She stated that its songs will incorporate genres of disco and pop, inspired by artists such as Gwen Stefani, Madonna, Moloko, Blondie and Outkast.[3]

Background and production

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. 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.

– Lipa, on the development of Future Nostalgia.[4]

After the release of Dua Lipa: The Complete Edition in October 2018, the expanded deluxe edition of her debut album, Lipa announced a new single titled "Swan Song". On 24 January 2019, the song was released for the film Alita: Battle Angel (2019), and was met with moderate commercial success. In the same month, Lipa stated that she had been spending the past year in the writing process for an upcoming second studio album.[5] Whilst discussing the sound of the album, Lipa commented that it would be a "nostalgic" pop record that "feels like a dancercise class".[2]

Following the release of its lead single "Don't Start Now", Future Nostalgia and its accompanying arena tour was announced in December.[3] Lipa stated that the album was inspired by artists including Gwen Stefani, Madonna, Moloko, Blondie and Outkast. She added that the album will feature "a lot more of a live element" inspired by touring with her band, but "mixed together with modern electronic production".[3]
