Background
In discussing the direction of her upcoming album,{{Cite web |date=2025-01-29 |title=MØ has teamed up with Biig Piig on new single 'Sweet', and announced her fourth album - Dork |url=https://readdork.com/news/mo-biig-piig-sweet-new-album/ |access-date=2025-05-24 |website=readdork.com |language=en-GB}} MØ described the song as emblematic of the project's overarching themes. She explained that "Sweet is a fun and sweet song wrapped into a mean bass synth riff (thanks to Nick Sylvester). The line 'I don't go to clubs / I go to comic cons and thrash metal shows' is this album's battle cry", and "it speaks to the feeling of kinda being an outsider, but being proud of, and embracing that outsider status as part of who I am. I don't enjoy going to clubs! I like playing The Sims and going to punk and metal shows and spending time with my friends and family. I think a lot of people can relate to that."{{cite magazine |last=Murray |first=Robbin |date=29 January 2025 |title=MØ Confirms New Album 'Plæygirl' |url=https://www.clashmusic.com/news/mo-confirms-new-album-plaeygirl/ |access-date=14 May 2025 |magazine=Clash }}{{cite web |author=Tyler Damara Kelly |date=30 January 2025 |title=MØ announces new album, Plæygirl, and shares new single "Sweet" feat.
