Charli XCX Unveils New Album CRASH: Stream

Charli XCX has released her new album CRASH through Atlantic Records/Warner UK. Stream it below via Apple Music and Spotify.

The studio set is the avant-garde pop star’s fifth and final entry under her current recording contract, and contains hit singles “Good Ones,” the all-star “New Shapes” featuring Caroline Polachek and Christine and the Queens, and the Rina Sawayama-assisted “Beg For You.” Ahead of its release, Charli also rolled out a pair of additional tracks: the hyper-sexual dance pop of “Baby” and dreamy, synth-drenched ballad “Every Rule.”

In an interview with MTV News, the singer explained that the title and themes of the LP are intentional callbacks to some of the earlier musical output of her career. “The idea of the title CRASH felt really right to me,” she told the outlet. “not only because of all of the, kind of, link-backs to lyrics like, ‘I crashed my car into a bridge’ in ‘I Love It,’ and also ‘vroom vroom’ in ‘Vroom Vroom.’ There’s also this onomatopoeic thing that is kind of, like, related to sounds like ‘Boom Clap.’”

In support of the body of work, Charli will embark on a tour of North America, Europe, and the UK, starting March 26th. Buy tickets here.

To celebrate the album’s release, Consequence also ranked the ten best songs in Charli’s catalog of pop-driven hits, from “Superlove” and “1999” with Troye Sivan to “Unlock It” featuring Kim Petras and Jay Park, “Boys,” and more.
