Most recently, the pop star has released a series of promotional singles leading up to the album’s announcement –– including “SS26” and “Rock Music.” Both tracks feature quite the sonic shift from Charli’s prior discography, trading the club-infused hyper-pop sound for more somber, if introspective, production and lyrical elements.
Check out the music video of “SS26” below:
Earlier this year, Charli dropped her second soundtrack album, Wuthering Heights, on February 13 for the 2026 blockbuster of the same name. The record spawned the hit singles “House” featuring John Cale, “Chains Of Love,” and the viral track “Die For You.”
Music, Fashion, Film comes two years past the release of Charli’s critically and commercially acclaimed hit album, BRAT. In Billboard Philippines review of the latter, it was mentioned that the record “features the hyper-pop phenomenon at her most ambitious and experimental — and surprisingly at her most confessional” and arguably the artist at her creative prime, as well as “a record that feels like it has been 15 years in the making.”
The forthcoming record is now available for pre-order on a multitude of physical media formats, including mulitple limited edition vinyl pressings, CD formats, and cassette tapes. Pre-order the album here.
