During a recent late-night Wikipedia dive, I was surprised to learn that Charli XCX — fresh off the massive recognition of “Brat” — has not one, not two, not three but seven appearances in films set to be released in the near future.
These upcoming projects include fantasy film “100 Nights of Hero” and erotic thriller “I Want Your Sex” from queer icon Gregg Araki. She’ll also appear in “The Gallerist,” which features the likes of Natalie Portman and Jenna Ortega.
That being said, I know brighter days are on the horizon with the new deluxe songs on my playlist. They intensify the raw, introspective feel to the album that I once associated more heavily with songs like “bye” and “true story.”
I curated a playlist of songs that make me feel warm, anticipating that I’d need some soothing music to help me get through the next few months of cold temperatures.
My expectations for the film were high, as were my standards. While excited, I was unsure what to expect. The verdict is in: I absolutely love the movie “Wicked.”

Various realms of the music industry are brought together in Charli XCX’s remix album, “Brat, and it’s completely different but also still brat,” released on Oct. 11. The album features numerous artists — ranging in genres from indie tunes to emo rap all fused in an astonishing reconstruction of Charli XCX’s sixth studio album, “Brat.”
The album features Robyn, Yung Lean, Bb trickz, Ariana Grande, Jon Hopkins, Troye Sivan, Addison Rae, Caroline Polachek, Bladee, A. G. Cook, Lorde, The Japanese House, Tinashe, Julian Casablancas, Bon Iver, Shy Girl, Billie Eilish and Kesha.

Pop stars cannot be held to tell the whole truth about their lives within their art, even if they have chosen to provide intimate details in earlier projects. Fans should not be the arbiters of how musicians divulge their lives for millions of people to consume in minutes.
Instead of going on a shopping spree for a new wardrobe or making a list of dorm essentials, the first thing I did this past summer was reorganize all my Spotify playlists. Sadly, I put all that effort into making the perfect college soundtrack only to find myself too busy to listen to it.
BENEE’s “Hey u x,” released on Friday, is a fascinating reflection of Generation Z music trends in 2020, with both its insight into the singer’s insecurities as well as it being a pastiche of various...
