Charli XCX producer AG Cook has spoken about the singer’s upcoming album, Brat, in a new interview with Variety.

Cook’s remix of the album’s first single, Von Dutch, featuring Addison Rae has already gone viral, and Charli’s Boiler Room set, which Cook also participated in, was a huge hit. On another single from the album, Club Classics (produced by Cook and Charli’s fiancé, the 1975 drummer George Daniel), Cook gets a shoutout when Charli sings, “I want to dance to me/I want to dance to AG.”
“Charli, much more than me, was really going for a lyrical, meaningful approach and I think that’s what sets it apart from some of the other things we’ve done,” Cook says of Brat, which the two worked on for over a year. “For me, it was like, how maximalist and minimalist can I get everyone to work? So that was sort of my role, to make sure every track was intentional and all the production was as bratty and confident as it should be.”
Charli XCX has also announced UK shows for this December. Described as her ‘biggest ever headline’ dates in the UK, the shows will also feature special guest Shygirl.
