Charli XCX Announces ‘Music, Fashion, Film’ Album Featuring David Cronenberg Guest Appearance
Charli XCX has revealed the full tracklist for her forthcoming album 'Music, Fashion, Film,' arriving July 24 as an 11-track collection featuring a sole guest appearance from acclaimed horror filmmaker David Cronenberg. The project continues to build on a series of singles released in recent weeks—"Rock Music," "SS26," and "Wink Wink"—each supported by accompanying music videos. The album title itself signals an artistic ambition that reaches beyond conventional pop.
The Cronenberg collaboration emerged from a moment of cultural intrigue at Charli's Coachella performance last year, when alternative names for the 'Brat Summer' era were humorously proposed on screen, including "Cronenberg Summer." This unexpected pairing now materialises on the record, uniting the experimental pop sensibility of Charli XCX with the distinctive visual and conceptual language of the Canadian horror director, suggesting an intentional cross-pollination between music and cinema.
