The Silence of Dua Lipa
It’s been over a year since Dua Lipa’s last release, and fans are starting to feel the silence. The British singer-songwriter has been relatively quiet since her debut album ‘Heaven Knows’ in November 2023. While some might view this as a sign of inactivity, others might see it as a deliberate choice to focus on her mental health and well-being.
The Pressure of Constant Release
The music industry is notorious for its fast-paced and competitive nature. Artists are often expected to release new music on a regular basis to maintain their fanbase and stay relevant. This pressure can be overwhelming, especially for those who are still finding their footing in the industry.
“Oh, we are soooo back! #2025” she tweeted, “I missed y’all [heart emoji] Thanks for waiting on me [teary-eyed emoji].” NME reviewed the London date of her 2024 ‘Capable of Love’ tour, awarding the show four stars and describing the gig as “a relentless extravaganza” that served as “a launchpad to showcase her newfound confidence on stage.” Recommended Last July, she unfortunately had to cancel all her remaining dates “to focus on [her] physical health and overall wellbeing”. This meant she would no longer co-headline Field Day 2024 or open for Coldplay on the Australasian leg of their ‘Music of the Spheres’ world tour.
She was so kind and humble, and I was really inspired by her passion and energy. I think she’s an incredible talent and I’m so grateful to have had the chance to work with her.”

She continued: “She was so fun. We talked a lot about how we started out careers. She’s so sweet and I love her.”
