Charli XCX has never hid from her emotions.
A songwriter with no boundaries between her art and her life, the pop figure – on record, certainly – lets everything pour forth.
New album 'CRASH' is a case in point. Charli XCX at her most revealing, it moves from plaintive introspection to something rather more carnal.
'Baby' is the digitally charged eroto-banger you've been waiting for, a spicy, unrelenting piece of bonk-pop.
Opening with classic string sweep, 'Baby' then moves into house-leaning digi-pop with a slight early 90s New Jersey feel.
The pulsating production is set against a purring Charli XCX vocal, in which she boasts: "Imma f*ck you up…"
In the press note Charli XCX cuts close to the bone: “The track is about great sex."
Directed by Imogene Strauss and Luke Orlando, you can check out the video below:
'CRASH' will be released on March 18th.
