Charli XCX: Labels are desperate for artists to be liked, otherwise you're bad, evil and wrong'
Briefly

You used to get one shot in the music business: the wrong marketing, the wrong song and you'd never be heard from again... posted tracks on Myspace... has written countless hits for other people... carving out a niche in experimental pop... known for brash songs but a dry and knowing vibe.
Her last record, 2022's Crash, was a concept album about becoming a mainstream pop star... strange state of famous but not quite... inspired one of the songs on her new album, Brat... on the way to try out her PARTYGIRL show at Radio 1's Big Weekend... soft, eloquent, and deadpan.
It took some people who thought quite drastically outside the box to make my ideas reality... The industry's changed a lot... I've been told for so long that I'm an outsider.
