Dua Lipa is the debut studio album by singer Dua Lipa. It was released on 2 June 2017 through Warner Bros. Records. The album is a dance-pop, electropop, and R&B record with elements of disco, hip hop, and tropical house. It includes a sole guest appearance from Miguel, as well as additional vocals from Chris Martin of Coldplay.
The album was supported by eight singles, including the UK top-ten singles "Be the One" and "IDGAF", as well as "New Rules", which became Lipa's first number-one on the UK Singles Chart and top-ten hit on the US Billboard Hot 100. Lipa promoted the album with appearances at several award shows, television programs and festivals, as well as embarking on a series of concert tours from 2016 to 2018. She also supported Troye Sivan, Bruno Mars and Coldplay on their respective tours. In October 2018, Lipa reissued the album, subtitled the Complete Edition, adding seven additional tracks including "One Kiss" with Calvin Harris, which was Lipa's second number-one song and the best-selling song of 2018 in the UK, and the UK top-ten single "Electricity" with Silk City.
Dua Lipa was met with generally favourable reviews from music critics. Many praised Lipa's vocals as well as the lyrics and production. It appeared on numerous year-end lists, including ones published by Billboard and Rolling Stone. The album was nominated for British Album of the Year at the Brit Awards, whilst "New Rules", "IDGAF", and "One Kiss", were all nominated for British Single of the Year, the latter of which won. The album also helped Lipa win the Grammy Award for Best New Artist. Despite being released in 2017, the album reached peak popularity and became commercially successful in 2018. It reached number three in the UK, and reached the top 10 in thirteen other countries. The album is certified multi-platinum in the UK and five other countries. As of February 2021, Dua Lipa has sales figures of six million units worldwide.
Background
Lipa developed a love for music at an early age, influenced by her father who performed in the Kosovan rock band Oda.[1] [2] She began singing at the age of five and wrote her first song about how she wanted to be like her mom when she was older.[3] [4] Lipa played the cello in school and also auditioned for her school's choir, but was rejected after being told she could not sing.[5] She began singing lessons after that. While living in Pristina, Kosovo during her teen years, Lipa's ambition to start a music career grew.[6] At the age of 14, she wrote the song, "Lions & Tigers & Bears" which was inspired by The Wizard of Oz (1939).[7] She published it on her SoundCloud page as her first demo in February 2012.[5] [8] Lipa determined that the smaller music industry of Kosovo did not match the type of career she wanted as she desired a "global scale" one. As a result, she relocated to London where she was born, at the age of 15.[6] Her parents felt comfortable allowing her to move there as the daughter of one of their friends lived there.[9]
After finishing school, Lipa took a gap year to find a manager while working at a restaurant. She was influenced by the discovery of Justin Bieber on YouTube which inspired her to take the same route as him.[10] She began a modeling career to gain contacts in the music industry.[11] [12] Lipa began posting covers of songs such as "If I Ain't Got You" (2004) by Alicia Keys and "Beautiful" (2002) by Christina Aguilera on YouTube.[3] Although her videos did not reach great popularity,[10] she used them as a form of portfolio and took them to London clubs such as KOKO where she thought she would meet people from the music industry who she could show them to.[9] Additionally, Lipa uploaded music to SoundCloud, gave demo CDs to radio stations and sang in advertisements. After starring in an X Factor commercial, she met a producer who offered her a publishing deal. Flummoxed by this, she contacted an online friend for help as she did not understand it. He redirected Lipa to his attorney who advised her to not take it. The lawyer was impressed by her and introduced Lipa to Ben Mawson of TAP management while she was holding meetings with management companies.[13] She eventually signed a publishing and management deal with TAP and a record deal with Warner Records; the latter company wanted her because they did not have a big female pop artist.[13]
Writing and recording
Early sessions and development
After meeting Mawson in 2013, Lipa was invited to writing sessions by him and Ed Millett, the co-owners of TAP; this happened while they were deciding whether to sign her.[13] Mawson and Millett intended on having Lipa learn the songwriter trade with the help of a wide range of collaborators. She was more interested in "discovering" her sound at first than in landing a record deal; she wanted to have a sound like a cross between rapper J. Cole and Nelly Furtado, but the reaction of the producers was not very positive.[14] [15] Lipa was still working as a waitress and was not getting much sleep. Thus, Mawson and Millett gave her a monthly salary so she could quit her job and focus on songwriting.[13] They organized an intense period of artist development where Lipa went into sessions five days a week with different writers until something came out of them.[16]
Lipa found it difficult going into the early sessions because she did not know the writers and producers there.[17] She thought it was difficult to open up to strangers. Lipa would attempt to get to know them before writing to make herself more comfortable. The singer also attempted to create only radio songs in early sessions, which limited her and stressed her out, resulting in her creativity lacking and an amount of pressure being put on her. Lipa eventually got over this and wrote about how situations made her feel; that is when she started writing the songs she enjoyed.[18] When Lipa began writing, she had several ideas and knew how to get her thoughts out. However, she had trouble building a song so she enlisted the help of co-writers, many of which she became good friends with. She described it as a learning process and slowly became confident with her songwriting.[19] As Lipa wrote more, she developed a skill for songwriting leading her to writing songs about situations relevant to her or her friends.[20] The singer took some inspiration with her writing from the "dramas" she saw while working as a hostess and "the dark side of nightlife". She desired to create this idea with as "seductive and sweet but doesn't sugar-coat" what happens. Lipa stated that she wanted to bring "a bit more realness" speak the truth "about what being a teenager is really like" as before music was dominated with how amazing it was.[21] In 2015, Lipa made four trips to Los Angeles to write songs;[20] she got a palm tree tattoo on her left elbow to commemorate her first month of writing songs there.[22] Songwriter Lucy Taylor gave Lipa "Be the One" before she had released any music;[23] the singer was reluctant to record it due to the fact that she had not written it.
Lipa formed a close partnership with producer Koz.[11] She would often send him stuff that was just the piano and he would produce it and make it cohesive. Lipa recalled that he made everything easier for her and understood her vision for the album.[11] [15] Koz revealed that he was impressed by Lipa's unique vocals.[24] Of the 25 original songs included on every edition of the album, Koz produced nine, including "Hotter than Hell" and "Thinking 'Bout You". They were the first two songs written for the album and were written in the early sessions arranged by Mawson and Millet.[13] [25] The former helped define what the album would sound like and helped the singer land her record deal with Warner Bros in 2014.[26] [27] Following this, Lipa went into many failed writing sessions attempting to recreate the song. She thought she needed more songs like it but eventually realized that she did not. That is when Lipa wrote "New Love" in New York and "Last Dance" in Toronto.[28] The latter song also had a role in defining the sound of the album; Lipa stated that once she heard its finished version, she would take the song to producers and say "this is my sound".[28]
Later writing sessions
Lipa normally would write a song in one day, usually within two to three hours.[29] Lipa would often go into studio sessions with an idea already in mind and beginning writing, slowly realizing how the lyrics has relevance in her life.[11] She would also write notes and take them to the studio to write a song about them, only if the note was still relevant to her at the moment.[29] As she cared more about the story, Lipa would make up melodies to fit around her lyrics and often change the melody so she could get all the words that she needed in the story.[29] [30] Lipa felt as though the writing sessions were her form of therapy.[29] Aside from Cole and Furtado, Lipa took inspiration from artists including Sting, the Police, David Bowie, Radiohead, Stereophonics, Pink, Destiny's Child, Missy Elliott, Christina Aguilera, Method Man, Redman, 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg, Busta Rhymes, Kendrick Lamar, Schoolboy Q, and Chance the Rapper.[19]
"No Goodbyes" was a personal song for Lipa to write; she described it as the hardest song for her to write on the album. She pre-empted the future when writing it as she was mourning a relationship she was still in, but hoping for the best. It took Lipa a while to have the courage to write it as she was worried the person she wrote it about would know it is about them.[31] [32] Lipa explained that she had been travelling a lot and letting that person down, where they were not living their lives while waiting for her.[22] "For Julian" was written by Lipa and Eg White for Lipa's friend who was going through a hard period in their life. The song was not released digitally, however it appeared on the Japanese edition of the album.[33]
Final sessions and overview
Lipa co-wrote every song on all editions of the album excluding "Be the One", "New Rules", "Scared to Be Lonely" and "No Lie". She turned down several songs offered to her by other artists because she felt they did not fit her style. Mawson explained that these songs ended up being massive hits for other female artists.[22] "Scared to Be Lonely" and "No Lie" were both offered to Lipa with Martin Garrix and Sean Paul both desiring a collaboration with her.[34] [35] Lipa wanted to finish the album before she put any music out so she could plan out the marketing campaign.[5] However, the singer still went into studio sessions on off-days just in case she could write something else.[28] The album was eventually pushed back as the singer got some exciting opportunities.[36] Following this, Lipa added ten new songs to the album so she could showcase another side to her.[37] She wrote upwards of 160 songs for the album, many of which were never finished as she was constantly writing new ones and expressing where she was in her life.[38] Lipa also collaborated with Nineteen85, Darkchild, BloodPop and Noonie Bao, but none of the songs made it onto the album.[16] [26] [39] She would often remove a song from the album then re-add it.
Lipa took two trips to Los Angeles when finishing the album where "IDGAF", "Lost in Your Light", "Homesick" and "Begging" were written. The trips solidified and closed the album for the singer.[40] Also during those trips, Ian Kirkpatrick played Lipa "New Rules" which led to her recording it.[40] "Lost In Your Light" and "Homesick" are collaborations with Miguel and Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, both of whom Lipa was a fan of.[41] [42] The album was finished on 20 March 2017 and was created in studios between Berlin, London, Los Angeles, New York, Stockholm and Toronto.[43] [44] [21] As Lipa spent a lot of time on the album attempting to perfect it, she got the word "patience" tattooed to remind herself to wait until everything in perfect.[22] Work on the Complete Edition continued throughout 2018, where "One Kiss" with Calvin Harris,[45] "Electricity" with Silk City,[46] and "Kiss and Make Up" with Blackpink were recorded. The latter song was originally intended to be a solo song for Lipa, however, the singer decided to add the band to it after members Jennie and Lisa attended her concert in Seoul.[47] [48]

Lipa uses husky and powerful rock vocals. The lyrics deal with themes of female empowerment, relationships, heartbreak, love and loss, all of which are inspired by sadness.[32] [54] Lipa never wanted the lyrics to come off as submissive or weak rather empowering. She described vulnerability as something different that is included in the album.[55] Additionally, it has themes of self-identification and using Lipa's experiences and realizations to brave the universal portents and predicaments of love. She also sings about the depressing and imploring qualities of a breakup.[50] Several songs on the album contain biblical references and religious imagery to showcase the ups and downs of relationships.[56]

Title and artwork
In July 2016, the cover art for Dua Lipa was revealed, however, it received negative reviews from fans with many petitioning for it to be changed.[124] The following month, Lipa announced the album's title and revealed the revised standard edition cover art and thanked her fans for being "patient and supportive" during the time. Rachel Sonis of Idolator described the cover art as "minimal yet smoldering" and it features the singer in a scaly jacket, staring into the camera with wet hair covering one side of her face over a blue-purple background. Lipa explained the title by saying "the reason it is self-titled is because this album is me. It's a representation of who I am as a person and as an artist".[125] [126] Other editions of the album use the same cover art with different backgrounds; the deluxe edition uses a purple background while the Complete Edition uses a glittery background.[127] [128]

Dua Lipa: Complete Edition
Following the album's release, Lipa teased a reissue stating that she would be releasing live versions of fan-favourite tracks "Running" and "Want To", both of which were leaked.[160] On 4 September 2018, she officially announced the reissue titled Dua Lipa: Complete Edition as the album's "super deluxe edition".[161] The reissue includes two discs: the first containing the deluxe album and the second containing eight additional tracks including Lipa's previously released collaborations, "One Kiss" with Calvin Harris, "Electricity" with Silk City, "Scared to Be Lonely" with Martin Garrix and "No Lie" by Sean Paul featuring the singer.[162] [163] All four of the collaborations reached the top 15 of the UK Singles Chart and "One Kiss" spent eight weeks at its summit while also reaching the top of charts in over a dozen countries.[134] [151] [164] The reissue was released on 19 October 2018 alongside an exclusive Japanese CD edition that includes five additional tracks.[165]
Dua Lipa: Complete Edition was supported by two promotional singles, "Want To" and "Kiss and Make Up"; the former was released on 6 September 2018 and the latter was released alongside the reissue.[166] [167] "Want To" also promoted Lipa's I-Pace campaign with British car manufacturer Jaguar where users of the car could create remixes of the song based and how they drove as well as personalized remixes based on their Spotify streaming history. The remixes mixed up moods, tempos, arrangement and different musical styles, including dance, drum and bass, hip hop, orchestral and pop. The campaign was announced at a secret gig in Amsterdam where Lipa as well as celebrities such as Dutch model Doutzen Kroes and French actress Alix Bénézech created their own remixes by driving the car. Shortly thereafter, "Want To" became the most remixed song in history.[168] [169] Lipa later revealed that releasing the B-sides taught her to think of an album's life span differently and take full advantage of it.[170]
Promotion
Warner Bros. Records began promoting Lipa's campaign in 2014 when she signed with the label.[171] The singer promoted her music through the use of social media as well as her campaigns with Adidas, MAC Cosmetics and Patrizia Pepe.[44] [172] [173] [174] In December 2016, she released a documentary short film produced by The Fader teamed up with YouTube Music and directed by Robert Semmer, titled See in Blue that details her music journey thus far.[175] It featured an acoustic performance of "Genesis".[176] [177] For further promotion, Lipa gave several interviews for publications such as the American Broadcasting Company,[10] the British Broadcasting Corporation, Billboard,[172] The Observer,[178] The Independent,[36] The New York Times,[133] NME,[179] the Official Charts Company[180] and Variety.[24]
Live performances
Following the release of "New Love", Lipa began promoting her music and performing unreleased songs that she had not yet finished, before she had finished her debut album.[181] [182] Lipa gave her first live performance at a record label showcase in Berlin and her first festival performance at Eurosonic Noorderslag in the Netherlands in January 2016.[183] [184] She embarked on the 2016 UK Tour,[185] [186] Hotter than Hell Tour[187] and US and Europe Tour throughout 2016 and 2017.[188] She also served as an opening act for Troye Sivan on the Suburbia Tour,[189] Bruno Mars on the 24K Magic World Tour[190] and Coldplay on the A Head Full of Dreams Tour.[191] The singer performed at awards showing including the American Music Awards,[192] Billboard Music Awards,[193] Brit Awards[194] and Grammy Awards.[195] Her appearances on television shows include Jimmy Kimmel Live!,[196] Later... with Jools Holland,[197] The Ellen DeGeneres Show,[198] The Graham Norton Show,[199] The Jonathan Ross Show,[200] The Late Show With Stephen Colbert,[201] The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon[202] and Saturday Night Live.[191]
The singer was part of the line-up for events including Capital FM's Summertime Ball and Jingle Bell Ball,[203] [204] as well as the Glastonbury Festival,[205] iHeartRadio Music Festival,[206] Jingle Ball Tour[207] and UEFA Champions League Final.[208] The singer headlined the Sunny Hill Festival in Pristina, which was organized by her father Dukagjin.[209] The album's supporting tour, the Self-Titled Tour, ran from October 2017 to December 2018 and beginning in Brighton[210] and concluding in Denver. She performed a total of 245 shows on the tour and tattooed the number on her back.[9] During the live promotion, Lipa received backlash for her lack of stage presence while performing.[211] A meme of her dancing went viral, which she later revealed affected her mental health stating "for a short period of time, it messed with my mental health. You know, I'd go on stage and if somebody was filming me, in my head, I wasn't, like, 'Oh, they're filming me because they want to keep it.' I was like, 'They’re going to film it so they can laugh at me or something'".[212]
Critical reception
Dua Lipa received generally positive reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalised rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, the album received an average score of 72, based on eight reviews. AnyDecentMusic? gave the album a 6.8 out of 10 from nine gathered reviews. For the Financial Times, Ludovic Hunter-Tilney noted that it is predominated by "upbeat dance-pop of impressively solid quality". Sean Ward of The 405 thought that the singer "has comfortably anchored herself in the category of pop innovator" with the album.[213] Evening Standards Rick Pearson said "this is high-quality stuff from an artist headed for the biggest of things".
In The Line of Best Fit, Claire Biddles said "this is a mostly compelling and wholly fun trip through modern pop with a charismatic protagonist, that hangs together way better than it should". Alex Green of Clash lauded Dua Lipa as "a debut album brimming with confidence, confidence not only in Lipa's own voice and her eye for a chorus, but in the emotive quality of her lyrics". Neil Z. Yeung of AllMusic praised the album as "a delightful collection of catchy pop gems where the songs only serve to highlight her vocal prowess" and "an excellent first effort from a budding pop star". Writing for NME, Jamie Milton wrote that Lipa's voice "could make the thickest synths seem tame in comparison and carries a 20-a-day raspiness capable of making heartfelt ballads sound edgy", adding that "it's equally impressive to hear how confidently the debut holds itself together, flitting between styles but always shining a spotlight on a legitimate pop sensation".
Ben Hogwood of musicOMH referred to Lipa's "powerful and distinctive" voice as "one of the most distinctive you will hear in pop music currently", while commenting that "the only potential issue with her approach lies in the production behind the songs". Hogwood concluded that "the hope is that her talents will get more room and less post-production time". Kate Solomon of Q magazine praised Lipa's voice as "very, very good" and opined, "What makes this album more than just a load of precision-engineered musical nothingness between a series of tentpole singles is Lipa herself. Songs that in other hands would be little more than throwaway filler swell into anthems for girls who can't stop falling in love". In a mixed review, The Guardians Hannah J. Davies stated that "despite a few generic offerings", the album is "a solid pop debut that is high on summery nonchalance". DIY writer Alim Kheraj remarked that "across the album's 12 tracks there are bangers aplenty", but ultimately found that a lot of the album "feels overthought and calculated".
