FallenFroot Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 It will top several "best albums of the 2020s" lists in 2029. It's just that good. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan_brit Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 Yes a little bit!! the album is fine, but for some reason I liked more Crash, but I'm happy for Charli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TipToe Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 A little bit yeah, the alberm main quality is being infectious but if we inspect it underneath its heady haze we find a classic pop alberm. It's not a masterpiece but for anyone into that style it actually produces a similar effect. I knew nothing about her music previously and when i first heard "everything is romantic" something clicked. I don't listen to sings that instantly put my head above the clouds like that too often. So it's much more about the effect of her musique than the actual content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnusualBoy Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 Out of the stan world no since the gp don't know what it is. In the stan world, it's heavily overrated, trying to pass it as anything other that noise is and then praising by the lyrics when they're hella generic for the most part She's done better than this. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowdive Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 11 hours ago, MatiRod said: No, it's a work of art. She combined the most avant garde hard hitting hyper pop with heartbreaking, uncomfortably honest confessional songwriting like no one has ever done before.

The7thStranger Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 Yes. Maybe I'm too old, but I don't get Charli XCX on the whole. She has some songs I like, but I can't make it through a full album. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheers Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 It is. Crash is better. But it's not terrible and it's about time Charli gets some recognition tbh so whatever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychodiva336 Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 Yes, and the hype surrounding this album - fascinating as it may be - really needs to stop. Does it have some bops? Yes - I frequently return to B2b, Hello goodbye and Guess and looove these 3 songs to death! But as a whole I think 'brat' is a very mediocre, overhyped album and would have been much better off as an EP. This is coming from someone who's been a casual fan of Charli's for years now (with my favorite albums of hers being Crash Deluxe and How I'm Feeling Now). And don't even get me started on the offensively uninspired aesthetics disguised under a layer of "Well this is actually a social commentary on XYZ" - stop!!! The cover is bland and ugly, end of story. Also side note, ballads were never Charli's strong suit but my God they're a pain to listen to on 'brat' and are easily the most forgettable part of the album. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breathe On Moi Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 it's crazy to me to think how underwhelmed and not about it I was when I first listened to the album i literally don't know what was wrong with me. days later I listened again and have played it at least once a day since.

Some of Charli's all time best songs are ballads (Lucky, for example) but yeah I can't believe people are really out here pretending to like "I think about it all the time" and its ilk on the album; whenever I try to give brat another chance I have to turn it off when I get to that one 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHanyo Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 (edited) Nope. It's the only album released this year that i revisit frequently. Cowboy Carter, HMHAS, whatever Ari's album was called... haven't revisited any of those. Edited July 29 by TheHanyo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unclefloprry Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 It's the Anglo "Motomami". The gp doesn't know a single song, the media only know the album as a meme (obviously Anglo, because outside that region... lmao) and it's only listened to by a bunch of gay men who base their taste in music on Metacritic Watch them say she was snubbed if she doesn't get a nomination for AOTY, just like Motomami 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePopStop Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 I'm glad Charli is finally having her big mainstream moment for an album, but I really wasn't digging what I heard. It sounds like a pseudo-indie pop album. I want fun bops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
