Radical Optimism is the third studio album by English and Albanian singer Dua Lipa. It was released on 3 May 2024 through Warner Records. Her first full-length studio album in four years since Future Nostalgia (2020), Lipa worked on Radical Optimism with producers such as Kevin Parker, Danny L Harle, Ian Kirkpatrick, and Andrew Wyatt. The album was preceded by three singles, "Houdini", "Training Season", and "Illusion", all of which peaked within the top ten of the UK Singles Chart.
Upon release, Radical Optimism received generally positive reviews from critics. Some reviewers praised its neo-psychedelic production, while others found the album underwhelming and compared it poorly to Future Nostalgia. In the United Kingdom, the album debuted atop the UK Albums Chart and scored the biggest opening week for a British female in three years. Radical Optimism is being supported by the Radical Optimism Tour, which began in November 2024.
