Future nostalgia, heading to Number One in the UK and in the Top Five in the United States is currently. It is also one of the So Far with an average grade of 88 on Metacritic.

just Like the title says, it sounds like a throwback recording from the year 2050 - the laser-gun-pop-melodies, paired with squelchy funk basslines and disco grooves.

Dua dreamed of, the concept by the end of 2018 as they went around The Strip in Las Vegas .

"I had already knew have begun work on the recording and I that I wanted to, that it influenced My Childhood , But I had not quite figured out which direction I wanted to go," she recalls.

"I messaged my manager and said, 'I have my album title is, I'm going to start from, to the rear of the work from There . '"

The Album is set to go to capture the Number One in the UK on Friday

"For a pop artist, people will see that you have made, and that you will only have a writing credit for the activation. But , for the songs I wrote, I was in these meetings, and they are my personal experiences. And this is something I wanted to, in every interview I did. "

The stars were not in this year, the Grammys with her boyfriend Anwar Hadid
