"Future Nostalgia" is the second studio album by Dua Lipa, an English and Albanian singer. Released on March 27, 2020, via Warner Records, the album showcases Lipa's evolution as an artist and her love for nostalgic pop and disco music with a contemporary twist. Collaborating with renowned writers and producers such as Jeff Bhasker, Ian Kirkpatrick, Stuart Price, the Monsters & Strangerz, and Koz, Lipa successfully crafted a cohesive and infectious record that drew inspiration from the music she enjoyed during her childhood.

The album produced an impressive six hit singles, along with the title track serving as a promotional single. "Don't Start Now" was unveiled as the lead single on November 1, 2019, garnering both critical acclaim and commercial success. The song peaked at number 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, solidifying Lipa's status as a chart-topping artist. Following its success, "Physical" and "Break My Heart" were released as the second and third singles, respectively, both achieving top 10 positions on the UK Singles Chart. "Hallucinate" and a remix of "Levitating" featuring DaBaby were later released as the fourth and fifth singles, with the latter earning the album its second top-two single on the Hot 100 and becoming the most played song of 2021 in the United States. "Love Again" was released as the sixth single in France on March 11, 2021, and globally on June 4, 2021, further cementing Lipa's global success.

Originally slated for release on April 3, 2020, the album was brought forward after it leaked in its entirety two weeks prior. To support the album, Lipa had planned the Future Nostalgia Tour, which faced three postponements due to the COVID-19 pandemic before finally commencing in February 2022.
