The British singer has taken the music scene by storm in 2017 with her self-titled debut album, which received positive reviews from the critics and the audience. Now, two years later, a follow up might be in place.

The “New Rules” singer recently spoke with Rolling Stone about her plans for 2019 and told the magazine that “working really hard” to put out a new album is at the top on her list of priorities.

“Working really hard to get my new album out,” Lipa said when asked which will be her “new rules” for this year. “Those are the only rules that I’m gonna be living by. I’m just going to be in the studio making sure that I come back with some fun stuff for everyone.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Dua Lipa discussed her “musical mood swings” and talked about the way this influences her second album.

“That carries on in the second album,” she added. “It’s me trying to cover all the ground, all of my feelings. Some days are happy, and all you want to do is write a song about that. And other days…you know. Things don’t go how you want them do – but it’s such great inspiration for music. So there’s always that silver lining. I guess I’m quite good at hitting all the low notes – I’m still figuring out how to reach the higher ones.”

Besides working on her second studio album, Dua Lipa is also involved in several other projects these past few months. One of the most notable ones was the soundtrack for upcoming sci-fi blockbuster Alita: Battle Angel, for which she contributed a track titled “Swan Song.” You can check out the teaser below.
