Diet Mountain Dew liked a post in a topic by Madrigal in Charli XCX
Guys honestly I think the biggest reason there have been only three songs on the mixtapes with any SOPHIE involvement (and just one solo SOPHIE production) is because she's probably charges more than a mixtape budget. I'm not 100% sure, because no-name artists like Banoffee and Quay Dash have been able to get SOPHIE production, but SOPHIE's not cheap. "Roll With Me" probably cost a lot more than the PC Music productions on N1A. (The "Oh Yeah" example works really well, but I think Lady Leshurr said that about her song with SOPHIE too...and I think Le1f & a few others might have said the same thing recently.)
PC Music's never been really about making money from the beginning...it's a newer thing for them to even be selling their stuff.
Like....I doubt it's that complicated with the Exchange songs not being released, I think that it's probably that's probably most of the reason, not just Charli wanting to save them for something else. Not discounting that, if they really are special to her, she might want to hold onto them for awhile; but working with people like A. G. & the PC crew probably costs her and/or the label so much less than SOPHIE.
I'm also thinking Stargate cost a pretty penny too...again, no way to know for sure, but they've made hits for everyone from Beyonce and Rihanna to Britney & Wiz Khalifa, and like...huge hits. So the songs intended for the album (with both SOPHIE & Stargate) probably weren't cheap either, which is why they weren't featured on the tape either.

I never imagined when I first heard "You (Ha Ha Ha)" four years ago that I would be hanging out on Lanaboards waiting for Charli's album to leak and painstakingly arranging my library to make sense, lol. Anyway, after remembering that "I Wanna Be With U" and "Party 4 U" were contenders for XCX3, I decided to put together a theoretical tracklist for XCX3.
I'm imagining that, like Melodrama and hopeless fountain kingdom ( ) this is a concept album based around the idea of a party. Speaking of which, isn't it crazy there would have been three albums released this year centering around parties? And all three artists have spoken about the importance of parties in their lives? And Charli knows both of them? Hmmmmm.
Anyway the first half is kind of the fun boppy songs (except Down Like Whoa), with the middle of the album being Charli waiting for this guy to show up because "she only threw this party for him," and then we get into the sad (Die For, Can You Hear Me) or sonically dark songs (Waterfall, I Wanna Be With U). After a triumphant final attempt to get through to this gentleman (Can You Hear Me) she decides to just have an after-afterparty where instead of falling in love with a guy, she falls in love with the world. Because what's more beautiful than that sense of world peace and love for one's man caused by being totally drunk? We're all in love!!!
Come to my Party - Charli is both starting the party and inviting the listener to hang with her. This song is a bop and a half, should have been a lead single, so makes sense to frontload it like this. Good Girls Bounce Down Like Whoa - This is a dark song so it should have been in the second half but (a) I didn't want to depress everyone by having a second half full of downers and (b) it flows super well into No Angel, lol No Angel Girls Night Out - he's still not here, so she's having fun with her girls instead Party 4 U - Homegirl is sad and upset; from here we enter the 'dark' portion of the album Die For - she considers that her cheating on him and ignoring him have actually only served to worsen their relationship and desperately begs for him not to leave her Waterfall I Wanna Be With U Queen Lizzy Can You Hear Me - a final 'happy-sounding' song before the encore, to lift the mood a little After the Afterparty (SOPHIE or single version, depending on how much you can stomach Discord Quality) - We don't know if he heard her, but she's ready to move on and embrace the people who have been with her - her girls, her fellow party-goers, the world. "We're all in love." We end on the euphoria of a party. Also it's nice because the album starts with a robotic voice saying 'X-C-X'/namedropping herself and now we have Charli herself saying 'X-X-X-C-X Charli'
I know we're all over XCX3 because it's been like 3 months since it leaked but I still think about it all the time and what the finished version might be called so if anyone else wants to discuss tracklists, fan-made album covers, titles (where did 'XCX Girl in an XCX World' come from?) please @ me.

Enough with this XCX3 leaked already. It didn't I believe just a few of the songs did like good girls and come to my party and m0aybe bottles and girls night out. But the rest don't sound like third album material. Your telling me XCX3 was
Come to my party
Down like woah
Bounce
Queen lizzy
Good Girls
Ring
Girls night out
was xcx3
Most of that is hardly album material
And also not enough for an album.
We don't know the tracklist. We just know some of it leaked. But don't go throwing around and accepting the idea that xcx3 leaked. We don't really know.
