Dua Lipa released her third studio album, "Radical Optimism," on Friday.
With its Euro-pop vibe, 11-track structure, and dance-forward conceit, "Radical Optimism" does recall its predecessor, but that's hardly a bad thing.
Compare that to the trio of "Radical Optimism" singles: "Houdini," "Training Season," and "Illusion," all of which have the makings of a smash.
"Radical Optimism" is primed for the same kind of slow-burn success, especially given its familiar shimmer of pop genius.
