The next pop empress

Dua Lipa has been a force to be reckoned with since she burst onto the scene with her singles ‘Be The One‘ in 2015 and ‘Hotter Than Hell‘ in 2016. These tracks were inescapable on radio worldwide.

Her appeal is widespread and easy to understand; relatable lyrics, an incredible voice, and a strong personality create the perfect storm. She has a strong message of self-love, empowerment and acceptance – a positive message sorely needed in the pop world right now.
