Charli XCX didn’t just make an album with Brat—she crafted a manifesto. The Apple hitmaker recently revealed the bold vision behind her Grammy-nominated project, detailing how she planned to dominate the charts and redefine pop culture.

Released in June, Brat debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200, becoming Charli’s highest-charting album to date, but the journey to global success started long before its release.

Taking to her private Instagram, Charli shared the conceptual framework that guided every aspect of the album, from its polarizing artwork to its chaotic yet meticulously executed marketing.

“The artwork for Brat will be obnoxious, arrogant, and bold. Some people will hate it,” Charli wrote, describing the album’s stark, text-heavy cover. “It will be heavily text-based, either font on a plain background or painted on a wall or disregarded object.”

The bold strategy extended far beyond visuals. Charli shared that the entire album campaign was conceived as a mix of “high art” and “low art,” blending avant-garde chaos with mainstream celebrity culture.

“The whole album campaign is high art. But it is also crucial to understand the benefit of low art and celebrity. The coupling of the two is vital.”

“There is no explanation for what I do,” she explained. “The answer is always ‘No comment.’ We must cultivate desire, chaos, and destruction.”

The Brat rollout also saw Charli teasing unfinished demos at underground raves to build anticipation. “You need to understand my vision. This is global. I will provide momentum and tell the story in a laser-focused way,” she declared. Her fanbase, known as the Angels, became a pivotal part of the campaign’s success. “The Angels are ready and waiting. This is the moment.”

In a recent interview for Variety’s Hitmakers issue, Charli revealed that the marketing concept for Brat came before the music.

“Usually when I’ve made a record, there is this transitional phase [after it’s recorded], where I’m thinking about how to present the music. But with this one, I actually did that first,” she shared.

Charli’s meticulous approach paid off as Brat debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 with 77,000 equivalent album units in its first week, including 40,000 pure album sales and 46.72 million on-demand streams. The album’s longevity has been equally impressive, returning to its No. 3 peak in its nineteenth week and topping Billboard’s Top Dance/Electronic Albums chart.
