Dua Lipa

Born in London, Lipa attended the prestigious Sylvia Young Theater School that has trained powerhouse vocalists like Amy Winehouse and Rita Ora. After spending part of her teens in her parents' homeland of Kosovo, she began releasing demos in 2012, at the age of 17. Her soulful and sultry voice attracted the attention of Lana Del Rey's people, and soon she was in the studio recording her debut, self-titled LP. The album featured four acclaimed singles; "Hotter Than Hell" broke into the Top 20 in England, and "Bow Your Mind (Mwah)" performed spectacularly on Billboard's Top 100 Songs.
