She&#8217;s hypnotised us with \u2018cooler than we\u2019ll ever be\u2019 views on the industry, and left us wondering just how exciting this new album probably, definitely will be. It\u2019s marketing genius and we love it.<\/p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" data-cookieconsent=\"statistics, marketing\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cwZ1L_0QLjw?si=2w72Gf3gP4OGsWKM\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><div class=\"cookieconsent-optout-statistics cookieconsent-optout-marketing\"><\/div><p>In updates since the initial PR started we now know the album will be called \u2018Brat\u2019, and we do have one track to go on, \u2018Von Dutch\u2019 which is a stone cold banger. Just added to the Pop Playrooms Hits &amp; Trends playlist, you have to hear this. Charlie has been reported as saying that, it was written about being an object of gossip or obsession for people around you and embracing it. Which makes sense when you think about just how obsessed we are with her latest work.<\/p><p>Once the poster girl for Hyper Pop, that label now seems frivolous. You can\u2019t pigeon hole an an artist this deep into their own world. There\u2019s nothing fabricated here, it\u2019s a real life authentic talent, reacting organically to people trying to label her. And her reactions just make her even more appealing.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"624\" height=\"501\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.popplayrooms.com\/kingston\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" \nclass=\"wp-image-1187\"\/><\/figure><p>\u2018Brat\u2019 doesn\u2019t have an exact release date, but is available for pre-order now.
