Charli xcx is all set for her next music project as she admits it might upset some people.
The 33-year-old singer’s upcoming eighth studio album will shift her music genre to rock, she recently revealed in a conversation with British Vogue for the new cover story.
Charli said: “I think the dance floor is dead, so now we make rock music.”
Like the Brat singer is currently working on her new album with collaborators AG Cook and Finn Keane. She noted, “Being out at night and experiencing things while I’m writing is really helpful to my process.”
However, Charli has no plans to make a Brat sequel.
She explained, “If I had made another album that was more like dance, it would have felt very difficult and very sad.”
And for her take on rock music, Charli added, it’s “bending the possibilities of what my perspective on it could be.”
The Grammy-winning artist also said her new music will have more rock elements, with less auto-tune and more guitar integration.
“We were doing our version of analog, which is so silly and funny,” she noted. “But it was important to see it through our lens and make sure nothing felt too macho.”
And what inspired her to take this approach, Charli noted, is Brat’s success that has made her “long for something different.”
