Early life

Dua Lipa was born in Westminster, London to Albanian parents who had left Pristina (present day Kosovo)[a] in 1992.[2] The singer's first name means "love" in Albanian; Lipa elaborated: "Now I'm proud of it. [...] But when I was growing up, all I wanted was to be called Hannah, Sarah, Ella… anything normal. Because with Dua you had to explain: I'm from Kosovo."[3] Her father—Dukagjin Lipa—is a marketing manager and the lead vocalist in a Kosovan rock band, Oda, while her mother—Anesa Lipa (née Rexha)—works in tourism.[2][4] Lipa further has a younger sister and a younger brother.[5] She attended Sylvia Young Theatre School part-time[6] before moving to Kosovo with her family in 2006 when her father had accepted a job offer there.[7] In Kosovo, Lipa attended the Mileniumi i Tretë (Third Millenium) school in Pristina,[8] and became a fan of hip hop artists which would eventually influence her music style.[9]

At the age of 14, Lipa began posting YouTube covers of her favourite songs by artists such as Pink and Nelly Furtado.[10][11][12] One year later, she moved back to London with aspirations of becoming a singer,[13] living with a friend and studying at Parliament Hill School during the week and at the Sylvia Young Theatre School on Saturdays.[14][15] In order to earn money for music sessions, Lipa had different jobs, such as hostessing restaurants and nightclubs.[16] She began working as a model for the online catalogue ASOS Marketplace when she was 16,[15] with the goal of meeting people who could help her pursue her music career,[10] but she left after a manager told her to lose weight.[10] In 2013, the singer starred in a television advertisement for The X Factor.[17]

Career

2015–2018: Career beginnings and Dua Lipa

In 2013, Lipa signed a contract with Tap Management, directed by Ben Mawson and Ed Millett, while working as a waitress in a cocktail bar. Subsequently, they offered her a monthly salary to leave her job and focus on recording music.[18] During one of the sessions, Lipa co-wrote the song "Hotter than Hell",[18] which would eventually lead to her signing a record deal with Warner Music Group in the summer of 2015.[10][15][19] Millett retrospectively elaborated: "Dua was really smart – she signed to Warner Bros. partly because they didn't have a big female pop artist and they needed one. They really wanted her, so she had the focus of the team from day one."[18] In August 2015, Lipa released her first single "New Love",[20] produced by Emile Haynie and Andrew Wyatt.[10] Her second single, "Be the One", was issued to European success in October 2015,[4][21] reaching number one in Belgium,[22] Poland and Slovakia, as well as charting within the top ten in over eleven European territories. In Australia and New Zealand, the song became an airplay success, reaching numbers 6 and 20 respectively.[23] In November 2015, she was revealed as one of the acts on the BBC Sound of... 2016 long list.[11] Her first tour in the UK and Europe began in January 2016,[7] and concluded in November 2016.[24]

Lipa's self-titled debut studio album was released on 2 June 2017.[36] Its sixth single, "New Rules", released in the following month, became Lipa's first number one in the UK,[25] and the first by a female solo artist to reach the top in the UK since Adele's "Hello" in 2015.[37] Her best-selling single to date, the song also charted in the top ten of other territories, including number two in Australia, number six in the US, and number seven in Canada.[38] Lipa performed at the Glastonbury Festival in June.[39] The following month, Lipa performed at the We the Fest, an Indonesian music festival in Jakarta.[40] She performed on BBC's Later... with Jools Holland in October.[41] In December, Lipa was named the most streamed woman of 2017 in the UK by Spotify.[42] She had four singles reach the UK top 10 in 2017, with "Be the One", "New Rules", "No Lie", and "Bridge over Troubled Water", a charity single for the families of the victims of the Grenfell Tower fire in London.[43][44]

She was nominated for MasterCard British Album of the Year for Dua Lipa, British Single of the Year and British Video of the Year for "New Rules", British Female Solo Artist, and British Breakthrough Act, winning the latter two.[45] This was the first time that a female artist had received five nominations.[46][47] She performed at the awards ceremony held on 21 February at the O2 Arena in London.[45]

The brand made a special remix of Lipa's song "Want To", and fans around the world can create their own version of Dua Lipa x Jaguar's song on the Join the Pace website, based on their own driving behaviour or the music they listen to, and share it on social media. Shortly after announcing the collaboration, Jaguar and Lipa set the world record for the "most remixed song ever".[58] In October, the singer released Dua Lipa: The Complete Edition, an expanded version of her debut album that includes three new songs, including the aforementioned "Want To", and her previous collaborations with other artists.[59] This included a collaboration with South Korean girl group Blackpink called "Kiss and Make Up".[60]

Artistry

Dua Lipa's music is primarily pop.[77] Lipa describes her musical style as "dark pop".[21][78] Her music has also been described as dance-pop,[79] synth-pop, R&B,[80] dream pop[7] and alternative pop.[81] She is also known for singing in a "distinct, husky, low register",[14] and her "sultry" tone.[82] During writing sessions, Lipa states she usually comes to the studio with a concept and starts developing the song with her co-writers.[9][12] She cites Pink, Nelly Furtado, Kendrick Lamar and Chance the Rapper among her musical influences.[83] "My idea of pop has been P!nk and Christina Aguilera and Destiny’s Child and Nelly Furtado,..." said Lipa in a GQ interview in 2018.[84] Future Nostalgia was inspired by artists that she listened to during her adolescence, including Gwen Stefani, Madonna, Moloko, Blondie and Outkast.[85]

Personal life

In 2016, Lipa and her father set up the Sunny Hill Foundation in Pristina to donate to the citizens of Kosovo, her parents' home country.[86] In August 2018, Lipa hosted her own festival to raise money for the Sunny Hill Foundation, called the SunnyHill Festival where she also performed. The Mayor of Pristina, Shpend Ahmeti then awarded Lipa the Key to Pristina the first time such an honour had ever been granted.[87] She hosted the festival for the second year in a row in 2019, with Miley Cyrus as one of the performers.[88]

On 26 November 2019, an earthquake struck Albania and Lipa appealed to fans for support and donations to the relief effort.[89][90] Lipa has 15 tattoos, including one in honour of Sunny Hill.[91]

Notes
a.   ^ Kosovo is the subject of a territorial dispute between the Republic of Kosovo and the Republic of Serbia. The Republic of Kosovo unilaterally declared independence on 17 February 2008, but Serbia continues to claim it as part of its own sovereign territory. The two governments began to normalise relations in 2013, as part of the 2013 Brussels Agreement. Kosovo is currently recognized as an independent state by 97 out of the 193 United Nations member states. In total, 112 UN member states recognized Kosovo at some point, of which 15 later withdrew their recognition.
