International pop star Dua Lipa is gearing up for her second album "Future Nostalgia", and she says she is much more "confident" about her talent now.

"I guess I didn't realise how much I was almost holding back in a way because I was just kind of learning. I was just getting confident. I was learning my craft. I was getting used to just being in a room, and a lot of the time in a room full of men. And to be a vulnerable, 18-, 19-year-old girl talking about very personal feelings and emotions is daunting sometimes. Now, I feel like I've claimed my place in the studio, and I know exactly what I want and I can go in and I can just write. I'm a lot more confident now," the singer told MTV News. Dua Lipa admitted her new music has been a "nerve-wracking" experience because the genre is different from her old stuff, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
