Charli (CD)
Charli XCX
Amoeba Review
07/28/2020
Has it really been five years since the last Charli XCX album? On her latest, Charli, the English pop chameleon sounds as vital as ever, morphing through different moods and genres and bringing along a slew of A-list collaborators for the ride. Christine and the Queens, Lizzo, Haim, Troye Sivan, and Sky Ferreira are just a few of the names to look for on this one, with Charli herself blithely disregarding the genre boundaries between rock-tinged bangers, hip-hop jams, and electro grooves. It’s good to have Charli back in the spotlight; on Charli, the stars all shine a little brighter.
