If you haven’t heard, we’re having a Brat summer. And if you don’t know what we’re talking about, we’ve got you covered. Billboard cover star Charli XCX dropped her sixth studio album, Brat, on June 7, and the green cover and her hard-hitting pop hits have changed the course of the season, from a viral TikTok dance, to political endorsements. Even CNN had to get in on the culture-shifting album, along with every brand and TV show. Charli’s seen support from her peers like SZA, Chappell Roan and Katy Perry.
And there’s no sign of brat summer slowing down. The album debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200, second on the U.K. Chart, and it’s been shortlisted for the Mercury Prize. And while Pitchfork may claim brat summer is dead, Charli says otherwise, posting a pic of her in studio and hinting at more Brat next week.
