Composition and themes

Flamboyant is an experimental pop, electropop, baroque pop, and hyperpop album that features elements of various genres including EDM, funk, dubstep, trap, R&B, electronica, new wave, and bubblegum pop.[16][1][17] The album focuses on themes of masculinity and queerness.[18] Many of their songs deal with gender stereotypes and attempt to view them in a new light. In an interview, Electra said "I wanted to explore different masculine characters or tropes to make the themes accessible and relatable and fun too".[19]
