Dua Lipa Has the Magic Touch (Again) On Her New Song ‘Houdini’

Dua Lipa reached new heights with her sophomore album Future Nostalgia back in 2020, scoring her first two top five Billboard Hot 100 hits (the No. 2-peaking “Levitating” and “Don’t Start Now”) and spending 188 weeks (and counting!) on the Billboard 200 albums chart.

She returned late last week to kick off her mysterious new era, unveiling the nu-disco lead single “Houdini” along with a mesmerizing music video. On the new Billboard Pop Shop Podcast, Katie & Keith are talking all about Dua’s latest song and what we’re expecting next.
