Charli XCX – “Club Classics” & “B2B”

Charli XCX – “Club Classics” & “B2B”

Last month, Charli XCX released “Von Dutch,” the lead single from her upcoming new album Brat. A couple weeks later, she debuted the SOPHIE tribute song “So I” during a performance at the Billboard Women In Music event. Today, Brat has an official release date — June 7 — and two more singles, “Club Classics” and “B2B.”

In a recent interview with Vogue Singapore, Charli addressed critics of her Brat cover art: “They were like, ‘Why isn’t she going to be on the cover? She needs to be on the cover.’ Why should anyone have that level of ownership over female artists?”

“I wanted to go with an offensive, off-trend shade of green to trigger the idea of something being wrong,” she continued .I’d like for us to question our expectations of pop culture—why are some things considered good and acceptable, and some things deemed bad? I’m interested in the narratives behind that and I want to provoke people. I’m not doing things to be nice.”
