What is Brat Summer? Charli XCX’s Feral Summer Aesthetic Explained
As for her most recent album, the “360” singer decided to trust her instincts and take risks with the music she released into the world—which ended up bringing her back to her rave roots.
“I kinda miss the time where pop music was really volatile and crazy,” she said in a February interview with The Face. “I miss the Paris Hilton days. Everybody is so worried about everything right now, how they’re perceived, if this art they’ve created is going to offend.”
And despite the demands of the mainstream pop industry, Charli found success in staying true to herself and rejecting the cookie-cutter pop star image.
“I know that if I suffered in silence, pushed through it and didn’t say what was on my mind, and maybe got like a brow lift or whatever, I could probably operate in a more commercial world,” she told GQ in May. “Sometimes I tempt myself with going there, but I think the problem is my fanbase knows that that’s not who I am, so they kind of smell a rat, and they’re like, ‘This is inauthentic.’ But then I think that sometimes puts me in this position where the masses are like, ‘What the f–k is this?’”
But the pop sensation must be doing something right, because a TikTok viral dance to her song “Apple” has taken the internet by storm. Even the cast of the Twisters film—including Daisy Edgar Jones, Glen Powell and Anthony Ramos—took part in the trend.
