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, she began posting songs on Myspace in 2008, which led to her discovery by a promoter who invited her to perform at warehouse raves around London.

In 2010, she signed a recording contract with Asylum Records, & releasing a series of singles and mixtapes throughout 2011 and 2012.

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

In 2015, Charli XCX began working alongside producers associated with the UK collective 'PC Music', developing a more experimental sound and image.

While working on her third album, she released the 'Vroom Vroom' EP (2016) and the mixtapes 'Number 1 Angel' and 'Pop 2' (both 2017), as well as a series of singles including the BPI-certified 'After the Afterparty', 'Boys', and '1999' with Australian heartthrob Troye Sivan.

Her third and fourth studio albums, 'Charli' (2019) and 'How I'm Feeling Now' (2020), received widespread acclaim.

In 2021, Charli XCX co-wrote and provided vocals on the Jax Jones and Joel Corry single 'Out Out'.

The following year, she released her fifth album, 'Crash', which became her biggest commercial success to date.

In 2023, she released the single 'Speed Drive' as part of 'Barbie the Album' project, the soundtrack of the mega-hit Barbie movie.

This is so cool. Very raw and authentic, reminds me of 90's music videos. We need artists to take more risks like this! Stop playing it safe for god's sake
