Getty Charli xcx is getting very honest about life after Brat . The 33-year-old Pop 2 superstar got candid in a new Rolling Stone cover story about her life, out now. During the conversation, she spoke about life after the whirlwind success of her 2024 studio album, discourse about her “rock album” and declaring that the “dance floor is dead” on a song, not wanting to explain the meaning behind her music, friendships in the industry, and much more. Find out what Charli xcx had to say… On life after Brat and refusing to repeat herself: “All of my albums work in opposites. They repel against each other, and that’s the connective tissue.” “I knew when I was making it that I was never going to make that record again. It’s not creatively rewarding for me to make the same thing twice.” On her upcoming album and the ‘rock album’ conversation: “Obviously, I know that there’s been a lot of conversation around me making a rock album, which is something that I never said. But to be honest, I’ve never thought about genre in a binary way. I find that to be a very old-school notion. I don’t even know what the genre is. It’s just me and A. G. Cook and Finn Kean e, doing our thing.” On the lyric ‘The dance floor is dead’: “That lyric is very much about my relationship with Brat , and my personal experience with that album. My husband runs a dance-music label. There’s been such a wealth of incredible dance/electronic-adjacent records that have been coming out recently, whether it’s Slayyyter or Underscores or PinkPantheress . Dance music is in an incredible place.” On being in the worst mental health state of her life: “I have actually been a lot more offline. I don’t really look as much anymore. It’s just better for my brain. I know people probably won’t believe me, because I am inherently, at least in the past, a very online artist. But I recently have been really struggling with my mental health to the point where, if I’m being real, I’m in the worst place mentally that I’ve been in my life.” On nearly quitting music after Brat : “I was really, really ready to peace out and take a break and not make music. I felt very creatively drained and not inspired to write anything new. Then suddenly, inspiration came.” On her relationship with longtime collaborator A. G. Cook: “We communicate our friendship to each other when we make things.” On not wanting to explain the meaning behind her work: “I don’t really feel the need to explain my intentions behind anything I do. But I’ll just say I find that things can be earnest and funny at the same time, and they don’t have to exclusively live separately. That’s how I feel about a lot of my work, and if people interpret that as trolling, then that’s fine.” On stepping away from interviews and discourse: “The discourse is loud, and sometimes that can be very overwhelming. This is probably going to be my last long-form interview with a journalist for a minute. You got in t
