In a statement, Dua Lipa shared her inspiration behind the album, citing the concept of 'Radical Optimism' as a driving force in her creative process. The album draws influence from the energy of her hometown, London, as well as the rawness and confidence of '90s Britpop.

While details about the album's sound have been kept relatively under wraps, Dua Lipa hinted at a blend of '1970s style psychedelia' in her recent interviews. The singer expressed that the album has evolved during the recording process, taking on a cohesive and unique sonic direction.

With tracks like 'End Of An Era,' 'French Exit,' and 'Happy For You' among others, 'Radical Optimism' is poised to offer a diverse range of musical styles and lyrical themes.
