Dua Lipa said that 90s bands like Oasis and Blur‘s behaviour were “obnoxious”.
The pop star admitted she’s taken inspiration from the Britpop icons for her “raw” new album
But Dua Lipa also admitted that they had to be toxic to not be labelled boring and that she hasn’t met any of the key figures of the time.
โI havenโt had any encounters with them, actually,โ.
โSometimes you have to separate the art from the person.โฆ Itโs more like the music element, the aspect of it that Iโm really connected to. The way that acted, the things that theyโve done, theyโre obnoxious for sure. Thatโs their whole thing.”
“Thereโs so much toxicity in the way people wanted their artists or their musicians,โ she mused.
โIf they werenโt like that, they wouldโve been seen as boring, and I think thatโs such a bad way to see things.”
