Dua Lipa Set to Drop B-sides to “Future Nostalgia” Soon

Dua Lipa is set to drop some B-sides to Future Nostalgia soon.

Lipa released her highly acclaimed album on March 27, 2020. It landed the global star her first top ten on the Billboard 200, peaking at No. 6. Commercially, the album topped the charts in thirteen countries and reached the top ten in an astounding thirty-one countries. In her home country, it peaked atop the UK Albums Chart for four non-consecutive weeks, becoming her first album to do so. 

It is an eclectic and euphoric mix of the past and present, a celebration of musical worlds coming together, with 90s house blending seamlessly with 2020’s finest pop and remixers, a splash of 80s soul and a few noughties musical gems added to the blend.

Lipa took to her social media pages over the weekend to tease the imminent release of the companion tracks to her chart-topping LP.

Since the release of the British singer-songwriter's second studio album, she has given fans the remix album, Club Future Nostalgia, plus the Studio 2054 live event, while she recently teamed up with Kylie Minogue on a remixed version of the disco icon's track, 'Real Groove'.

Meanwhile, Lipa also recently revealed that she wants to "branch out" in her career. The 25-year-old, who released her self-titled debut album in 2017 - has already achieved record-breaking success with her two albums and has admitted that she'd now love to launch her own fashion brand as well.

She said: "I’d love to do something fun in terms of fashion. At the moment, my focus is music, but I want to be able to branch out and do something else. I would love to start a brand at some point, even if I start off really small. I have to take it in baby steps."

The music star believes it is harder for women to find success in the music industry and wants to to be able to pave the way for more women to become successful before she moves on to other projects. She added: "For women, it’s a lot harder to solidify yourself as an individual in music. In a perfect world, we wouldn’t have to prove ourselves so much to the point that maybe we run ourselves into the ground of being like, 'I must be heard.' But that is the world we’re in right now. I like to prove that I can do it. I’m stubborn."

In 2018 Lipa became the first female artist to receive five nominations in a single year at the Brit Awards, and is the winner of three Awards. She has also won two Grammy Awards to-date, as well as picking up six Grammy nominations last year for her disco-tinged Future Nostalgia.
