In-depth It’s Charli, baby: A comprehensive guide to Charli XCX

With new album ‘Crash’ on the way, we take an in-depth look at Charli XCX’s shapeshifting career so far.

Across years of albums, mixtapes and collaborations, Charli XCX has made a name for herself as a popstar with a huge degree of versatility. Since her stint as a DIY cover star back in October 2014, Charli has released second full-length album ‘Sucker’, followed it up with three mixtapes, lent her hand as a songwriter for a huge range of cross-genre artists and dropped some of the catchiest (not to mention commercially successful) pop tracks of the decade.
