Charli XCX and David Cronenberg Team up on New Album
The 11-track album runs about 30 minutes and closes with a nearly six-minute collaboration featuring filmmaker David Cronenberg.
- On Tuesday, British pop star Charli XCX unveiled the 11-song tracklist for her upcoming seventh studio album, Music, Fashion, Film, confirming a collaboration with Canadian filmmaker David Cronenberg on the closing track.
- The upcoming record, due July 24, follows her 2024 album Brat and explores three focal themes represented by cultural icons John Cale, Marc Jacobs, and Martin Scorsese, featured on the cover last month.
- Cronenberg, the director famed for "body horror" films such as The Fly, appears on the six-minute finale, No One Lasts Forever, joining previously released singles Rock Music, SS26, and Wink Wink.
- To celebrate the release, the singer is hosting exclusive listening sessions at independent cinemas globally between July 9 and July 11, preceding a 12-date North American arena tour beginning in September.
- Charli, also known as Charlotte Aitchison, insisted the 30-minute project is not a traditional rock album, clarifying its sonic direction ahead of the July 24 release despite recent speculation.
