Brat Remix: Aminé and Charli XCX Ignite Summer With ‘360.5′
Aminé, the acclaimed hitmaker and fashion icon, has recently taken on a new role as the latest Brat summer movement recruit under Charli XCX.
The announcement comes with the release of his remix of Charli XCX’s song “360,” aptly titled “360.5.” Thanks to its upbeat and energetic rhythm, the remix has been met with enthusiasm from both Aminé‘s fans and the devoted followers of Charli XCX. Aminé’s unique flair shines through in the track, with humorous pop culture references such as “too fine for my balloon to get popped” and “out here looking like the Timberlake mugshot,” in an Instagram post. Despite the song’s release date remaining undisclosed, the buzz around “360.5” is palpable.
Furthermore, Charli XCX has received significant acclaim for her album Brat, which has been celebrated as the album of the summer. The British pop star’s sixth studio album captures a cool girl aesthetic that resonates deeply with listeners. Brat is not just an album, but a cultural phenomenon, “You’re just like that girl who is a little messy and likes to party and maybe says some dumb things sometimes,” Charli XCX shares on social media. She continues “who feels like herself but maybe also has a breakdown. But it is kind of like parties through it; it is sincere and blunt. A little bit volatile. Like, does dumb things. But it’s brat. You’re brat. That’s brat.”
Additionally, the album has garnered praise from fans, including high-profile admirers like former Vice President Kamala Harris. Charli XCX has publicly supported and endorsed Harris and collaborated with her on her presidential campaign. Their partnership leverages pop culture humor and significant political messaging, with the distinctive lime green backdrop of the album is frequently featured alongside Harris’s name in campaign materials.
