DUA LIPA is going strong as one of Britain's leading music acts – and her brother could soon follow suit.
I've heard that 18-year-old Gjin, pictured below in 2019, is cutting his teeth as a music producer after striking up a friendship with rapper TE Tracey.

They met three and a half years ago during cameos in Dua's live-streamed lockdown concert, Studio 2054, and now work together.
A music insider said: “Gjin really knows his stuff when it comes to hip hop and grime.
“During lockdown he really got into music production and is now taking tentative steps to work in that field.
“Being friends with AJ has also been very inspiring for him.
“His music is completely different from his own big sister does and will be more behind the scenes as a producer.”
Dua's third album, Radical optimismwas released on Friday and is on pace to top the charts Taylor Swift.
We revealed it last week that Dua is talking to the legend Cyndi Lauper to come out as a special guest during her headlining set at Glastonbury.
A source said: “Dua is eager to lead the way Glastonbury and she can't wait for people to hear her new music.
“She knows the record will strike a chord with her fans, but for the old school musos on the Farm she wants a touch of nostalgia.
“Kevin Parker of Tame Impala, who worked with Dua on Radical Optimism, is another.
“She wants this set to go down in history.”
