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.
βI havenβt had any encounters with them, actually,β.
βSometimes you have to separate the art from the person.β¦ Itβs more like the music element, the aspect of it that Iβm really connected to. The way that acted, the things that theyβve done, theyβre obnoxious for sure. Thatβs their whole thing.”
“Thereβs so much toxicity in the way people wanted their artists or their musicians,β she mused.
βIf they werenβt like that, they wouldβve been seen as boring, and I think thatβs such a bad way to see things.”
