Charli xcx's remix album delivers a galaxy of stars

On 11th October, the remix version of one of the most popular albums of 2024 will premiere. The list of collaborations on "Brat and It’s Completely Different but Also Still Brat" definitely shows that you don’t say no to Charli xcx.

Fans of the British singer and songwriter are already familiar with several singles from the new record: "Guess" featuring Billie Eilish, "360" featuring Robyn and Young Lean, "Von Dutch A.G. Cook remix" featuring Addison Rae, "Girl, so confusing" featuring Lorde, and "Talk Talk" with a guest appearance by Troye Sivan. The latter also discreetly features Dua Lipa, who speaks in both Spanish and French, as per Charli's request in the song's lyrics.

On 8th October, Charli xcx revealed the full list of tracks and collaborations, which are no less impressive than the singles. In "Brat and It’s Completely Different but Also Still Brat," we will hear, among others, Ariana Grande, Bon Iver, BB Trickz, The Japanese House, Tinashe, Julian Casablancas from The Strokes, The 1975, Bladee, Caroline Polachek, Jon Hopkins, and Shygirl.

The star-studded collaborations were teased a few days earlier. Neon green billboards in the United States displayed the names of artists and bands that will appear on Charli XCX's new record. As soon as photos of the posters hit the internet, they sparked a wave of fakes suggesting collaborations from Taylor Swift and Moo Deng.

"Brat" (the one before the remixes) is mentioned as a contender for many Grammys next year. It is discussed in categories such as Album of the Year, Best Dance/Electronic Album, and Best Engineered Album, Non-Classical. Nominations for the industry's most important awards will be announced on 8th November.
