Her latest outing comes after Dua had a blast with her record producer pal Mark Ronson at the New York Knicks game on Tuesday at Madison Square Garden.
She was seated courtside with record producer Mark, 47, who is said to be working with her on her third studio album, and his wife Grace Gummer, 36.
Dua is reportedly putting the finishing touches on her ‘really personal’ third album, the follow-up to 2020’s Future Nostalgia, which earned her three Grammy Awards.
It has been claimed that Dua is going to be ‘a lot more revealing in her lyrics’ in her new era and has penned words for every track herself.
The six-time Brit Award winner is said to have already spent hundreds of hours in the recording studio in between sections of her world tour.
A music insider told The Sun newspaper’s Bizarre column: ‘Dua’s third album is really personal to her and she has been hands on at every turn.
‘She has spent hundreds of hours in the studio and has written on every song – that is really important to her.

‘As one of the biggest names in pop music, all of the most talented writers and artists have been vying to work with her.
‘Dua has been very clear about her direction in keeping it upbeat and fun, but she will be a lot more revealing in her lyrics.’
The source also hinted at collaborations in the album as ‘talented artists’ have been asking to work with her.
Speaking to the publication last month, Dua said: ‘It has a lyrical theme, more so than sonically.
‘There’s still a sonic element as you go through it, it’s still pop. I still want to dance and do another crazy tour.
‘It’s a bit more mature [than Future Nostalgia] I think in terms of the experiences.’
Mark helped produce Dua’s second album and it has been reported that he’s also involved in the creation of her third, though neither have confirmed this.
It is not yet known exactly when Dua will drop her new album, but she is expected to release ‘at least some new music’ before the end of 2023.
Elsewhere, Dua recently confirmed her romance with her new boyfriend, filmmaker Romain Gavras, who was previously in a relationship with singer Rita Ora.
The pair were seen heading home from the Saint Laurent Paris Fashion Week show together earlier this month.
Sources previously claimed the pair have been ‘quietly getting to know each other for months’, following her split from Anwar Hadid in 2021.

It was reported in February that Dua and Romain were dating after they were spotted leaving Netflix’s annual BAFTA Awards afterparty at the Chiltern Firehouse in London.
A source told The Sun: ‘Dua and Romain have been quietly getting to know each other for several months.
‘They have been enjoying spending time together. The pair met each other’s close circles over the festive period and have lots in common.
‘Dua knows how important it is to find someone who understands her industry. She feels Romain totally gets it. They’re both really creative people.’
