That Grape Juice has been spinning the LP since its release. Join us below to find out which five tracks are essential on ‘Radical Optimism.’
5. Houdini
’80s-inspired synths lead the way for Lipa to prove that she is not going anywhere anytime soon.

4. Illusion
Lipa gives one of the best choruses of her career on ‘Illusion,’ making for a satisfying reality.

Perhaps the track where Lipa showcases the most growth and maturity, she steps into her new self in an oh-so-satisfying light.

I can’t find any bad songs on the album. What a masterpiece! Even it ain’t FN level but I enjoy the whole art piece.
Falling forever needs to be released after happy for you (4th single maybe?). But I doubt she will never performed on stage since I don’t think so she can hit these high note in one take…. So she might lip sync
The album is Fire! These walls, whatcha doing are my s***. Training season is still that b****! I needs some hot summer d I c k s. 🍆🔥 I need some men to train me to be a full time c u m s l u t 💅🏻
The album is amazing! Illusion (song of the summer) needs to be a hit. I do see some growth with the new album. The next single could either be Happy For You or even Falling Forever. Other highlights on the album for me are; These Walls, French Exit, End of An Era, and Whatcha Doing. Maria is good too.
