But since it's someone who appeals to white gays, it's yasss brat summer Hmm don't know about the last part. Charli XCX does not make generic music. She already has proven herself as a pop visionary, so I think everybody is cheering because an underdog is achieving that, not someone that makes music to appeal 100% to the masses with no personality, and just by having industry push behind it. Even if BRAT is not her most experimental work, this is the person with Pop2, Vroom Vroom and How I'm Feeling Now in her discography. She's not the usual payola'd artist 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine outsourcing your music appraisal to conglomerate-owned coastal magazine employees who make $24 an hour and for the record brat isn't even in the top 100 but as I've already established these scores don't actually matter for anything 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slap Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 Because a lot of the Top 50 is reflective of the taste of very plain, basic people, not brats. There is a cultural divide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JO1s Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 My straight coworkers are talking about brat. Your self deprecating homophobia says more about how little you guys socialize than talking about gays and their twitter circles. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Letemtalk Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 I didn't read through 8 pages of people who are clearly bothered because another woman is being praised, but if we go to chartmasters most streamed albums. https://chartmasters.org/spotify-most-streamed-albums/ Then enter the year 2024, sort by daily streams, Brat is #5 in the most daily streams. Seems like an album full of hits to me. 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lgaga1fan Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 Good. She hasn't had an actual label push in a decade except Crash and while that did okay 360 is already at 100m streams (maybe 1999 if we wanna stretch but not even). This album and era is a moment and feels very monumental for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
