this was so hard. crash is new so its ranking for me is subject to change depending on how it ages but i feel like i've been waiting a decade for her to release an mpg album, and messy rollout aside i really think she knocked it out of the park. i love her more experimental stuff and i think her work with AG is so fantastic but crash just feels like such an incredible summation of her sound so far, she really pushed herself and it paid off. number 1 angel is a career highlight often overshadowed by the more ambitious and less polished pop2 in my opinion. i put true romance and the early mixtapes together because i think there's some heavy overlap, and all 3 are just phenomenal. they will always hold such a dear place in my heart and i still can't believe she managed such an incredible debut at such a young age that has held up so well 10 years later. xcx world is not overhyped in my opinion, it's an amazing project that i'll always be sad never saw an official release. how i'm feeling now is my favourite of her more avant pop projects but it's a bit hit or miss for me; half the album is flawless and the other half are skips. vroom vroom is great, also not overhyped. obviously another career highlight, just not my personal favourite. pop2 is good, there are a handful of songs i really love but it has never really hit home for me in the way n1a did. i think it's overhyped. self titled feels like a watered down pop2 and while there are a few standout tracks, overall it's not her strongest work. sucker's fine, also some standout tracks but a higher ratio of skips. 14 i've probably listened to like maximum 2 times lol. i also don't really know where/if i'd place the 2018 singles but focus + no angel specifically is one of my fave releases from her ever

gonna stop listening to the leak cause i wanna give her all my streams. but my goodness she kinda outdid herself with this one and gave us some new charli classiques. so happy she got to give her mpg moment while saying fuck you goodbye to atlantic. i know this album isn’t even officially out yet but i’m soooo excited to hear what she’s gonna do next when she can go no holds barred. <3

I kinda think she’s signing with Warner.

What if she’s going “full pop star” as a move to re-sign with Atlantic though? The dancing and choreo element is a notable area of growth for her this era. Maybe this is all part of a greater investment into becoming the next mainstream pop legend under her next contract huh?  :toofunny: :popcorn:
 

She did say things improved quite a bit between her and the label, so who knows? If not, there’s always another major label, and at the very LEAST she’d fit right in with Dirty Hit and have a major distribution deal.

 

It’ll be interesting to see what happens.

im just gonna ignore all the self titled slander..

 

Does anyone else think Twice sounds like a bit like a hifn cut? I think it’s because it’s the most modern sounding song in the album, but its also the lyrics as well.

Idk, it kinda sticks out like a sore thumb to me, but in a good way 

Yes, I believe Twice was a leftover for HIFN. I think she kept it for release after she lost Sophie honestly. It doesn't fit sonically yet does in a weird way. Glad we got it, and why was it called 2 hot when leakers had it -_- .

HIFN at number 1 as it should be :true:

I truly think it’s her most impressive work :true:

i'm hoping the crash deluxe is just 5 bonus tracks and she saves any remixes for a whole remix album in the near future

 

THIS! I need Tinashe remix for Move Me, Dylan Brady remix for Crash and Dua Lipa on Yuck/Constant Repeat.
