The album was the follow up to her eponymous 2017 debut, which is certified platinum, spawned 6 platinum tracks, and made Dua the first female artist in Brit Awards history to pick up five nominations, with two wins for British Breakthrough Act and British Female Solo Artist. Future Nostalgia landed on the year-end “Best Of” lists of everyone from Rolling Stone and Billboard to the New York Times and Pitchfork. It is certified platinum in the US & UK and spawned multiple worldwide hit singles including the #1 hits “Break My Heart” and US 3x platinum lead single “Don’t Start Now,” which broke her personal best record of weeks at #1 at US Top 40 radio. In addition to breaking radio records, Dua is also a dominant force on streaming platforms, topping Spotify’s artist chart as the most streamed female artist on the platform and is currently the second biggest artist overall with over 60 million monthly listeners.
