Dua Lipa began to write her name in the music industry. Lipa gained attention from the specialized media as an artist after the release of her debut album in 2017, "Dua Lipa" (self-titled). It won the third position on the UK Albums Chart and featured eight singles. "New Rules" and "IDGAF" have become global hits, reaching the number 1 position in countries such as Australia, Belgium, Ireland, and the United Kingdom, as well as reaching the top ten positions in more than 30 countries, including the USA for "New Rules" . The album featured the hits "One Kiss" with Calvin Harris, "Be The One", "Scared To Be Lonely" with Martin Garrix, "No Lie" with Sean Paul and many others. It later received 5 nominations at the BRITs Awards, the most important British awards ceremony in music. She also won with her debut album two Grammys, "Best Dance Recording" for her song "Electricity" with Silk City, and moreover the "Best New Artist" award. "Dua Lipa" (self-titled) is the most streamed female album of all-time on Spotify.
But Lipa's great success would even come in her second album "Future Nostalgia", which made the promising young woman a true pillar of world pop music. Having hits such as "Don't Start Now", "Break My Heart" and "Levitating" , the album is currently the most played female album of the 2020's decade on Spotify and secured a Grammy at the 2021 ceremony for "Best Pop Vocal Album" and was present among the nominations for "Album of the Year". It also won the Brit Award for "Album of the Year". "Future Nostalgia" is the 2nd most streamed female album of all-time on Spotify. "Don't Start Now" became her most streamed hit on Spotify, nominated for "Record of the Year" at the Grammys. It was the biggest female song of the year 2020.
The British phenomenon has captured an all-time record on the Billboard Hot 100, all thanks to the success of "Levitating". The track became the longest-charting female song on the chart, with 77 weeks, being the 4th song overall to reach this astonishing feat. The same track became the biggest hit of 2021 in the United States and globally without ever reaching #1, proving once and for all that the disputed #1 position on the Billboard Hot 100, that she still doesn't have reached, doesn't define the success of an artist. For Lipa, it seems that longevity is more important than an instant success.
Her newest hit with Elton John and PNAU, "Cold Heart" is one of the biggest hits of 2022. She had during that year a sold-out global stadium and arena tour with "The Future Nostalgia Tour", marking her as a definitive icon of the beginning of the 2020's decade, especially in the European continent, her main music market.
She is set to begin her third album cycle in 2023, while also making her expected acting debut that year with "Barbie" and "Argylle" in 2024.

Dua Lipa Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And you think you sick, now you 'bout to get much sicker
'Cause I'm looking in the mirror and that ass got thicker
Bacon baby, here's what's poppin', rich with six plus figures
I've been there, I've been here, I just hustle low and pray
Got a lot up on my plate, taking meetings in L.A
Glowing up and blowing up, that's what I'm 'bout to do
When it's all been happening since I left you
You call me all friendly
Tellin' me how much you miss me
That's funny, I guess you've heard my songs
Well, I'm too busy for your business
Go find a girl who wants to listen
'Cause if you think I was born yesterday, you have got me wrong
So I cut you off
I don't need your love
'Cause I already cried enough
I've been done
I've been movin' on since we said goodbye
I cut you off
I don't need your love
So you can try all you want
Your time is up, I'll tell you why
You say you're sorry, but it's too late now
So save it, get gone, shut up
'Cause if you think I care about you now
Well, boy, I don't give a fuck
I remember that weekend
When my best friend caught you creepin'
You blamed it all on the alcohol
So I made my decision
'Cause you made your bed, sleep in it
Play the victim and switch your position
I'm through, I'm done
So I cut you off
I don't need your love
'Cause I already cried enough
I've been done
I've been movin' on since we said goodbye
I cut you off
I don't need your love
So you can try all you want
Your time is up, I'll tell you why
You say you're sorry, but it's too late now
So save it, get gone, shut up
'Cause if you think I care about you now
Well, boy, I don't give a fuck
I see you tryna get to me
I see you beggin' on your knees
Boy, I don't give a fuck
So stop tryna get to me
Get up off your knees
'Cause, boy, I don't give a fuck
How it feel, how it feel, how it feel?
Sign off on our connection, and I sign onto a deal
Shoulda kept a hundred, man, you shoulda kept it real
'Cause I realize you fake and you lost all your appeal
It don't hurt when I see you with her
You was always insecure and believed what you heard
'Cause you've seen that all these niggas tryna see when it's they turn
But I don't need a cuddle buddy
I just cuddle with my fur
Cut you off
I don't need your love
So you can try all you want
Your time is up, I'll tell you why
(I'll tell you why)
You say you're sorry, but it's too late now
So save it, get gone, shut up
(Too late now)
'Cause if you think I care about you now
Well, boy, I don't give a fuck
(Boy, I don't give a fuck)
I see you tryna get to me
I see you beggin' on your knees
Boy, I don't give a fuck
So stop tryna get to me (get to me)
Get up off your knees
'Cause, boy, I don't give a fuck
The lyrics to Dua Lipa's IDGAF are a powerful statement of independence and self-reliance. The song tells the story of a woman who has left a toxic relationship and is reveling in her newfound freedom. She boasts about her success since leaving her ex-partner, celebrating her achievements and her physical transformation. She dismisses his attempts to win her back, telling him to "save it" and "get gone" because she doesn't care about him anymore. The final verse is particularly biting, calling out her ex-partner's insecurities and lying.
The song's overall message is clear: once someone has walked away from a damaging relationship, there's no going back. Dua Lipa's lyrics encourage listeners to stand up for themselves and prioritize their own wellbeing over anyone who has treated them poorly. The repeated refrain of "I don't give a fuck" is a bold declaration of independence that is sure to resonate with many listeners who have been through similar experiences.

I've been winning since I left you, left you
I have been successful ever since I broke up with you

I've gained weight and I'm proud of it

I'm going to become more successful and famous
When it's all been happening since I left you
Everything good in my life has been happening since we broke up
You call me all friendly
You contact me as if we're still friends
Tellin' me how much you miss me
Saying that you long for me
That's funny, I guess you've heard my songs
It's ironic that you say that, since my music seems to be all you know about me now
Well, I'm too busy for your business
I have too much going on to be bothered with your problems
Go find a girl who wants to listen
Find someone else to talk to
'Cause if you think I was born yesterday, you have got me wrong
Don't underestimate me and think I'm naive

'Cause I already cried enough
I'm done mourning our relationship
I've been done
I've already moved on
I've been movin' on since we said goodbye

So you can try all you want
You can make attempts to get back with me
Your time is up, I'll tell you why
You've run out of chances
You say you're sorry, but it's too late now
You apologize but it doesn't matter anymore
So save it, get gone, shut up
Stop talking and leave me alone
'Cause if you think I care about you now
You're mistaken if you think I still have feelings for you
Well, boy, I don't give a fuck
I really don't care about you anymore
I remember that weekend
I recall that particular weekend
When my best friend caught you creepin'
When my closest friend discovered you cheating
You blamed it all on the alcohol
You attributed your cheating to your consumption of alcohol
So I made my decision
I chose to end things with you
'Cause you made your bed, sleep in it
You created this situation, deal with it
Play the victim and switch your position
You try to act like you're innocent and shift blame
I'm through, I'm done
I'm completely over you
I see you tryna get to me
I notice you attempting to reach me
I see you beggin' on your knees
I'm aware that you're pleading with me
Boy, I don't give a fuck
I truly couldn't care less
So stop tryna get to me
Stop attempting to reconnect with me
Get up off your knees
Stop begging me for forgiveness
'Cause, boy, I don't give a fuck
I don't care about you anymore
How it feel, how it feel, how it feel?
How does it feel to fail?
Sign off on our connection, and I sign onto a deal
We ended our relationship and I signed a new agreement
Shoulda kept a hundred, man, you shoulda kept it real
You should have been truthful and honest
'Cause I realize you fake and you lost all your appeal
I see now that you're fake and unappealing
It don't hurt when I see you with her
It doesn't bother me to see you with someone else
You was always insecure and believed what you heard
You were always scared and gullible
'Cause you've seen that all these niggas tryna see when it's they turn
You've noticed that all these guys are waiting for their opportunity to be with me
But I don't need a cuddle buddy
I don't need someone to cuddle with
I just cuddle with my fur
I simply snuggle with my furry coat
Your time is up, I'll tell you why
You've run out of chances
You say you're sorry, but it's too late now
You apologize but it doesn't matter anymore
So save it, get gone, shut up
Stop talking and leave me alone
'Cause if you think I care about you now
You're mistaken if you think I still have feelings for you
Well, boy, I don't give a fuck
I really don't care about you anymore
I see you tryna get to me
I notice you attempting to reach me
I see you beggin' on your knees
I'm aware that you're pleading with me
Boy, I don't give a fuck
I truly couldn't care less
So stop tryna get to me (get to me)
Stop attempting to reconnect with me
Get up off your knees
Stop begging me for forgiveness
'Cause, boy, I don't give a fuck
I don't care about you anymore
