Future Nostalgia Reaches 6 Billions Streams Despite Early Leaks

[RAMROD 109,898]

Dua Lipa has, without question, emerged as one of 2020’s biggest superstars. And Wendy Ong, US President at management company and label Tap Music, has been a key figure behind her success throughout the year.

In March, Lipa flipped the ‘tricky second album’ curse on its head with what’s since become a lockdown soundtrack, the Warner-released Future Nostalgia, hitting No.1 in the UK and No.4 in the US, going on to sell 2.6m albums worldwide and racking up 6bn streams.

In November, Lipa’s record-breaking Studio 2054 livestream extravaganza, which featured guest appearances from the likes of Elton John and Kylie Minogue, sold 280k+ tickets worldwide and reached over 5m viewers.

Lipa has five nominations for the 2021 Grammys for Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album, and Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best Pop Solo Performance for Future Nostalgia‘s lead single, Don’t Start Now.

Is the 2nd album a curse? For who, one hit wonders? Gaga, success. Katy, massive increase in success, Rihanna massive increase, Adele massive increase, Beyonce increase, Ariana increase, I guess MPGs have increases and the rest leave  good sign for Dua

2.6 sps is nothing to be proud of 💀 especially after all the play listing and radio
