Big-name guests abound on a thrilling remix album that takes a glimpse into celebrity’s heart of darkness but makes it transcendently fun and coolbrooded on her chronically underrated status. Over the sickly sweet deconstructed UK garage of Rewind, she worried about her lack of presence on the Billboard charts, unsure “whether I think I deserve commercial success”. During the jagged synthpop of Sympathy Is a Knife she bristled under the pitying gaze of a megastar peer.
While riding this wave of publicity and adoration, Charli has somehow found time to capitalise on it with a remix album, named with the same wryly under-crafted sensibility that defined Brat’s lyrics. Brat And It’s Completely Different But Also Still Brat isn’t simply a slightly jazzed-up version of the original record; as per the title, many tracks have had a complete overhaul. It’s even more thrilling than Brat 1.
In one sense, this is a victory lap: Charli is a self-proclaimed party girl and judging by the guest list this transcendently fun and cool collection is the year’s hottest ticket. In another, however, it’s a glimpse into celebrity’s heart of darkness. Having all your dreams come true is famously not all it’s cracked up to be – but, for the sake of pop music’s progress, it’s a good job Charli xcx got the chance to find out for herself.
