The track Pretty Ugly will be featured on Zara Larsson's forthcoming April 25, 2025, fourth studio album. Larsson is a Swedish pop singer. Here, Larsson contrasts her well-known crystal-clear vocals and dance-pop successes by mixing '90s club sounds with a pounding chorus urging people to forsake tradition. Starting what the Los 40 review terms her "bimbo era," this song, seven months after her last, reveals a wilder and more rebellious side of her character.

With a punk-like chorus, feminist lyrics, and '90s house influences, Zara Larsson's song is a bold new path for her career that will rank among her most memorable and audacious tracks. Ranging from joy to perplexity, fan feelings mirror the contradiction at the core of the song. It sets the stage for her next album, which will expand limits and strengthen her artistic voice.
