Lorde hails Charli XCX‘s ‘Brat’: ‘The only album I’ve ever presaved’
“I speak for all of us when I say it’s an honour to be moved, changed and gagged by her work.”
Lorde has hailed the release of Charli XCX‘s new album Brat, revealing it is “the only album I’ve ever presaved”.
Brat was released today (June 7) and previewed by the singles ‘Von Dutch’, ‘Club classics’, ‘B2b’ and ‘360’.
Taking to her Instagram Stories, Lorde shared her love for Brat and wrote: “The only album I’ve ever presaved is out today. Charli just cooked this one different. So much grit, grace & skin in the game.”
She added: “I speak for all of us when I say it’s an honour to be moved, changed and gagged by her work. There is NO ONE like this bitch. Brava and welcome Brat.”
Around the release of the new album, Charli will play three live shows across the United States, as well as DJ nights billed as PARTYGIRL in London, São Paulo and Mexico City.
