## Summary

Charli xcx has released a collection of B-sides to accompany her album 'Music, Fashion, Film', pairing an extra track with each song on the record. The release came shortly after the album's launch, which drew considerable international attention, including a 9/10 review from Clash magazine praising its "unsettling brilliance". The bonus material gives fans further insight into the creative process behind the record and rewards those who followed the rollout closely.

The B-sides are available only as a £4.99 download on iTunes rather than on streaming platforms. Charli xcx explained on Instagram that pairing each single with a "fitting counterpart" from the same sessions felt natural, though she had initially resisted releasing them more widely as it seemed at odds with the songs' spirit. She said she "begrudgingly" made them available on iTunes after fan demand, acknowledging the apparent contradiction while saying she hoped listeners would enjoy the additional material.
