Dua Lipa has us going crazy at the thought of a new album and has released more visuals. The popstar has just revealed on social media that she has officially started working on her second album, just eight months after her self-titled debut 'Dua Lipa'.
Taking to Twitter the 'New Rules' singer posted a photo from Jamaica saying, 'If you need me i’ll be here for a couple of weeks.' sic
She went on to explain that she has started work on her next album in "paradise".
It seems she will be stationed in Jamaica for a while, and pal MNEK couldn't be more excited for her. Could a collaboration be on the cards? We really hope so!
After 'New Rules' visuals sent the 22-year-old singer to the top of the charts, fans have high expectations of her for the next single, 'IDGAF', with the video expected to premiere next Friday (12th January).
The singer recently posted some behind the scenes photos simply accompanying them with the date of release and the song name '12.01.18 - IDGAF'.
In a recent interview Dua Lipa said, "I'm really excited about it. It's about your weaker self and stronger self fighting with each other, but in the end, it comes from an agreement of self love is more important than anything."
This comes ahead of a three-month world tour starting on 30th January kicking off in North America continuing to New Zealand, and ending in Europe.
Dua Lipa's last single 'New Rules' reached number 1 in the UK last summer and was the sixth single from her debut album. It was the follow up to the singer's collaboration with Dutch DJ Martin Garrix 'Scared to be Lonely', which was released at the beginning of 2016.
