Charli xcx - Brat (June 7, 2024) Album • Page 18

She’s live streaming a DJ set with George on her private IG. He’s playing some good shit

 

This album is amazing. It’s a good time but there’s a balance between sincere songs with depth and party oriented tracks and sometimes a single track will blur those lines. she still largely toys with standard pop conventions with her weird charli twist on it but she’s getting more and more distinct with what that charli music twist is she isn’t just doing a pop meets pc music thing she’s doing a charli xcx thing

 

Is 360 brat still a thing or is there another one

 

Yup, 360 brat still

 

Finally did an uninterrupted listen late last night…

this is right up there with Pop 2 and HIFN

the production on the vocals is some of the wildest in her career. B2b is an insane song

I think this is her most cohesive work

 

your avatar tho

 

I thought my top 3 would always be True Romance / Pop2 / how i'm feeling now but I can already see this dethroning the latter. Doesn't help that that album brings back weird memories from lockdown so I hardly revisit the full thing these days. Brat encapsulates so many of her past eras while, and what impresses me this many albums deep into her career, incorporating new sounds and making me see her in a different light artistically and as a person. She just gets it again and again and it's so satisfying to see her get her flowers this time

 

This is very good

 

Album passes the big speaker test lawd, the bass really shines. Going to be insane live

 

charli understands how traumatizing it is to be 31

 

turning 30 in a month, so i guess i have something to look forward to next year?

 

After 21, age doesn’t matter. I occasionally forget how old I am since it all blends together ngl

 

I’ve been calling myself 32 since the beginning of the year but my birthdays not til august lol

 

You are in your 32nd year of life so not wrong.

 

big facts

 

Being a 35 year old cis white straight guy, this lets me live the “bad bitch but also emotional vulnerability” fantasy I need

 

charli makes music for everyone including the cishets

 

Iconic

 

b2b is in my head at all times at all hours of the day

 

“i think about it all the time” has strong Lily Allen/Kate Nash vibes.

 

Why is XCX lowercase on Spotify and Apple now

 

I distinctly remember back in 2014, when I first heard Charli and the Sucker album, and thinking, “this XCX girl is kind of like the female side of the ‘The 1975 coin’ in a way.”

And now, here we are…

 

I know it's already been said but god the piano part in Mean Girls goes so hard lmao

 

you gon jump if A. G. made it

 

He’s another level
