Charlotte Emma Aitchison (born 2 August 1992), known professionally as Charli XCX, is an English singer and songwriter. Born in Cambridge and raised in Start Hill, Essex, Charli XCX began posting songs on Myspace in 2008 before entering the London rave scene. She signed a recording contract with Asylum Records in 2010, releasing a series of singles and mixtapes throughout 2011 and 2012. She later featured on "I Love It" with Swedish duo Icona Pop, with the song becoming her first number-one in the UK and receiving global success. Her debut studio album, True Romance (2013), was released to positive reviews but failed to meet commercial expectations.

In 2014, Charli XCX featured on the U.S. number-one song "Fancy" by Australian rapper Iggy Azalea, becoming one of the year's best-selling singles worldwide and receiving nominations for two Grammy Awards. The same year, she released "Boom Clap", which became her first solo top-ten single in the U.S. Her second studio album, the punk-influenced Sucker (2014), was released spawning the singles "Break the Rules" and "Doing It". She began working alongside producers associated with the UK collective PC Music in 2015, developing a more experimental sound and image. She released the EP Vroom Vroom (2016) and the mixtapes Number 1 Angel and Pop 2 (both 2017). Leaks and delays made her remake her third studio album from scratch, which resulted in Charli (2019) and the hit single "1999". Her fourth studio album, How I'm Feeling Now (2020), was made entirely during the COVID-19 lockdowns and received critical acclaim.

Charli XCX's fifth studio album, Crash (2022), marked her return to a mainstream pop sound and became her first album to reach number-one in the UK and Australia. She contributed the single "Speed Drive" as part of the soundtrack of the 2023 film Barbie. She then released her sixth studio album, Brat (2024), to mass critical acclaim and wide media coverage. It was her second UK number-one album, producing the singles "360" and "Apple" with the latter reaching the top-ten in the UK. The accompanying remix album had "Guess" featuring Billie Eilish, which became her first number-one hit as a lead artist on the UK Singles Chart. Brat and its songs earned her seven Grammy Award nominations at the 67th annual ceremony, including Album of the Year.

In addition to her solo work, Charli XCX has co-written songs for other artists, including Iggy Azalea's "Beg for It" (2014), Selena Gomez's "Same Old Love" (2015), Blondie's "Tonight" (2017), the Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello collaboration "Señorita" (2019), and the Sigala and Rita Ora collaboration "You for Me" (2021). She has received several awards including a Billboard Music Award and nominations for the BRIT Awards and the Grammy Awards. She was awarded the ASCAP Global Impact Award in 2024 in recognition of her contributions to pop music, as well as being on 2024 Gold House's most impactful Asian A100 list, making her the first South Asian woman of British Indian origin to be honoured.[1][2]

Early life

Charlotte Emma Aitchison was born in Cambridge on 2 August 1992, the only child of nurse and flight attendant Shameera and entrepreneur and show booker Jon Aitchison. Her mother was born into a Muslim family of Gujarati Indian descent in Uganda, while her father is Scottish.[3][4] She grew up in Start Hill, Essex,[5][6] and attended Bishop's Stortford College in nearby Bishop's Stortford.[7]

She has spoken extensively about her difficulties at school growing up, stating that she was a "half-Indian girl with frizzy hair" among predominantly white people and that she was bullied and discriminated against for her Indian heritage.[8][9] She demonstrated an affinity for music from an early age, being interested in acts such as the Spice Girls and Britney Spears, and began writing songs at the age of 14.[10][11]

Career

2008–2013: Career beginnings and True Romance

Main article: True Romance (Charli XCX album)

At 14, Aitchison persuaded her parents to grant her a loan to record her first album, 14,[12][13] and in early 2008, began posting songs from the album, as well as numerous other demos, on her official Myspace page. This caught the attention of a promoter running numerous illegal warehouse raves and parties in East London, who invited her to perform at them.[6][14] She was billed on flyers under the stage name Charli XCX; "XCX" (or "kiss Charli kiss"[15]) was her MSN Messenger display name when she was younger.[16] Despite the illicit nature of the gigs, her parents were supportive of her career and attended several raves with her.[17] In late 2008, while 14 was never commercially released,[18] she released the two singles "!Franchesckaar!" and double A-side "Emelline"/"Art Bitch", under Orgy Music.[19][20] She has since frequently expressed her distaste for her music of the time, going as far to call it "gimmicky dance tracks" and "fucking terrible Myspace music".[14][21] At the age of 18, Charli moved to London to study for a fine art degree at UCL's Slade School of Fine Art but dropped out in her second year.[4]

In 2010, Charli XCX was signed to Asylum Records. She later described herself as being "lost." In an interview with The Guardian, Charli XCX said, "I was still in school. I'd just come out of this weird rave scene, and I wasn't really sure what to make of that. And, when I got signed, I hated pop music; I wanted to make bad rap music. I didn't know who I was. I didn't know what I liked. Even though I was signed, I was still figuring it out."[18] She eventually flew to Los Angeles to meet producers and found it "wasn't working out for me" until she met with American producer Ariel Rechtshaid. They had a two-hour session and wrote the song "Stay Away." She stated that's "when things started to come together".[22][18] Early in 2011, she was featured on the Alex Metric single "End of the World". She left during the second year of her degree course at the Slade School of Fine Art to focus on her music career.[23][24] In May and November 2011, she released the singles "Stay Away" and "Nuclear Seasons" respectively, and gained attention from music website Pitchfork, where she earned "Best New Track" accolades for both; the former was eventually named to the site's "Best Tracks of 2011" list.[25][26][27]

In addition to Rechtshaid, she began working with Swedish producer Patrik Berger. He sent her two beats, and she quickly wrote songs for each, one of which became "I Love It" and the other of which became "You're the One".[28] She stated she did not end up releasing "I Love It" herself as she could not reconcile it with her sound,[29] but in 2012, Swedish duo Icona Pop re-recorded the song and released it as a single featuring her vocals. The song became an international hit, hitting number 1 in Charli's home country and climbing to number seven on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2013.[30][31] In June, she released "You're the One" as a single from her EP of the same name, followed by her debut mixtape Heartbreaks and Earthquakes, a one-track file consisting of eight songs, including a cover of the Blood Orange song "Champagne Coast" and Odd Future's remix of "You're the One".[32][33][34] On Halloween, she released a new song called "Cloud Aura" featuring Brooke Candy,[35] followed by her second mixtape Super Ultra, released exclusively through her website in November.[36][37][38] In early 2013, she released "You (Ha Ha Ha)" and announced her debut album,[39] followed by "What I Like" in March.[40] True Romance was released in April 2013. It peaked at number 85 on the UK Albums Chart,[41] at number five on the US Billboard Top Heatseekers, and at number 11 on the Australian Hitseekers Albums Chart.[42] The album was received well by music critics, earning a 76/100 on Metacritic, which assigns a rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[43] In May, she released "Just Desserts", a song with Welsh singer-songwriter Marina.[44]

2013–2015: Breakthrough and Sucker

Main article: Sucker (Charli XCX album)

Charli XCX began writing her second album in mid-2013, saying she initially wanted to go to India to record, but later decided she wanted to record in France, she said: "Two months ago, I wanted to go to India and record it, and now I want to record it in France. So I feel like nothing is definite – like, I feel very all-over-the-place at the moment. But at the moment, my heart's set on going to France and recording it, but that was different two months ago, so who knows what's going to happen?"[45] Frustrated with the music industry, she ended up going to Sweden, isolating herself from her record label, and made a punk-inspired album over a month. Working on the album with Patrik Berger, they made it at a fast pace, saying that it is "not thought-about, everything really spontaneous [...] We don't think—it's like the first thing that comes out of my mouth is the cut on the record,"[46][47] however it was eventually scrapped for a more "pop-oriented" album. The album included a song called "Mow That Lawn", which was debuted live a year later at Ilosaarirock Festival in Finland.[48]

In late 2013, "SuperLove" was released as the lead single from the album[49] and reached number 62 on the UK Singles Chart, becoming Charli's first solo entry on the chart.[50] In January 2014, she released a song called "Allergic to Love" on her SoundCloud.[51] While writing the album, she did further sessions with Weezer frontman Rivers Cuomo, Rostam Batmanglij from Vampire Weekend, production duo Stargate, John Hill and a session with Dr. Luke which she said "wasn't for me”. In an interview with DIY magazine, she stated that she wrote the record for girls and wants them to feel "a sense of empowerment".[52] Charli explained in her tour diary with Replay Laserblast that the record's genre is still pop but has a very shouty, girl-power, girl-gang, Bow Wow Wow feel to it at the same time.[53] The album was influenced by the Hives, Weezer, the Ramones and 1960s yé-yé music.[54] "SuperLove" was eventually scrapped from the album.

In early 2014, Charli XCX was featured on Australian rapper Iggy Azalea's single "Fancy";[55] the track topped the US Billboard Hot 100, becoming both artists' first number-one single on the chart.[56][57] Charli XCX expanded her portfolio of songwriting for other artists during this period, with credits on Azalea's 2014 single "Beg for It", Ryn Weaver's debut single "OctaHate", and material for acts including Sky Ferreira, Neon Jungle, Rihanna, and Gwen Stefani.[58] In mid-2014, Charli XCX contributed the song "Boom Clap" to the soundtrack of the film The Fault in Our Stars. "Boom Clap" peaked at number eight on the Billboard Hot 100[59] and at number six in the UK[60] and was certified platinum in Australia.[61] In August, a release date of October was announced for her new album Sucker, along with the lead single "Break the Rules". She said the song came about after she had made her punk album in Sweden, when she "came out of the other side of that punk phase and translated it into something more pop." She stated that the album was "obviously, [...] about not giving a fuck."[62] The album was pushed back the next month due to the success of "Boom Clap"[63] and was officially released in December 2014 in North America and February 2015 in Europe. It debuted at number 28 on the US Billboard 200, making it Charli's first album to enter the chart[64] and number 15 on the UK Albums Chart.[65] The album's third single, "Doing It", featuring fellow British singer Rita Ora, was released in February and peaked at number 8 on the UK Singles Chart.[66]

Charli XCX considers herself a feminist and wrote one of the songs on Sucker, "Body of My Own" as a feminist statement.[67] She appeared in the documentary about gender equality The F Word and Me, which premiered on BBC Three in 2015.[68] Charli XCX opened for Katy Perry on the European leg of her Prismatic World Tour in early 2015, headlined her own UK tour, and featured alongside R&B artist Tinashe on fellow singer Ty Dolla Sign's single "Drop That Kitty".[69][70] In May 2015, Charli XCX released "Famous", as the fourth single taken from Sucker.[71] A music video was released in March[72] and was ranked by Time and Pitchfork as the 5th and 19th best pop music video of the year, respectively.[73][74] In July and August 2015, Charli XCX co-headlined a US tour with Bleachers.[75] She announced on 21 August that, for "personal reasons", a planned second leg of the tour would not go ahead.[76]

She has further stated that the 1990s to her was "Spice Girls and Britney".[188][213][214] She reiterated her love for the former following the release of the single "Spicy" which interpolates the group's single "Wannabe" and called the latter her, "first big pop icon" and desired to emulate her.[215] Charli XCX also considers Spears' album Blackout to be one of her favorite records, citing the album's song "Piece of Me" as her favorite song from the singer.[216] Other musicians Charli XCX admired during her childhood include Justin Timberlake and Christina Aguilera,[194] and she named Stripped "one of my favourite albums ever".[217] She has also cited Avril Lavigne and the fictional characters Cher Horowitz, Wednesday Addams and Nancy Downs as inspirations for her fashion style which she describes as "90s schoolgirl".[218][219] Charli XCX wore ties during her adolescence to imitate Lavigne.[220]

Activism

In July 2020, she signed an open letter to the UK Equalities minister at that time, Liz Truss, calling for a ban on all forms of LGBT+ conversion therapy.[221] In July 2024, she appeared to endorse Kamala Harris in her presidential campaign, stating "kamala IS brat".[222] In August, she stated that she did not expect the tweet to be construed as an endorsement, but that she was "happy to help prevent democracy from failing forever."[223]

Personal life

Charli XCX experiences sound-to-colour synaesthesia. She states, "I see music in colours. I love music that's black, pink, purple or red—but I hate music that's green, yellow or brown."[224]

In light of racist comments about her Indian heritage and skin tone being labelled as "dirty", Charli expressed pride in her Indian roots by stating that "i am extremely proud of my indian heritage. i love my roots & my family. don't call me/anyone "dirty" bcoz of the colour of someone's skin."[225]

Until 2022, Charli XCX was in a long-term partnership with Huck Kwong, whom she had previously dated in 2014 and had been friends with since 2012.[226]

In 2022, Charli XCX began publicly dating British musician George Daniel, who is the drummer for the alternative band the 1975. The couple first met while working on the No Rome track "Spinning", released on 4 March 2021, and they collaborated again on her album Crash, released on 18 March 2022, on the album's title track and several songs on its deluxe edition. They became engaged in November 2023.[227][228]

As of February 2017, Charli XCX divides her time between London and Los Angeles.[229]
