Pop singer Charli XCX announced Monday that her seventh studio album, “Music, Fashion, Film,” is scheduled for a worldwide release on July 24.
The album features a black-and-white cover depicting filmmaker Martin Scorsese, fashion mogul Marc Jacobs, and musician John Cale to represent the three specific disciplines mentioned in the title, Billboard reported.
“So I made an album and it’s really different from the last one. Yeah, that is a fact and I love it…and that’s cool,” Charli XCX, whose real name is Charlotte Aitchison, said in a TikTok video posted Sunday.
The upcoming project from Atlantic Records will consist of 11 songs with a total runtime of exactly 30 minutes and five seconds, according to Stereogum.
Ahead of her new album’s summer debut, the 33-year-old artist released two songs “SS26” and “Rock Music” as part of the latest music project, Variety reported.
Photographer Aidan Zamiri, who previously directed several of the Aitchison’s music videos and her A24 mockumentary film “The Moment,” shot the cover image featuring the three industry pioneers, according to Billboard.
The cover shows Scorsese, 83, sitting at a table with an ashtray. The award-winning filmmaker that has directed more than 75 films including “Taxi Driver” (1976), “GoodFellas” (1990) and “The Wolf of Wall Street” (2013).
Jacobs, who’s the founder and creative director of his namesake luxury fashion and beauty brand, is seen leaning against a wall in the center of the cover. The 63-year-old designer is known for pioneering grunge style in the early 1990s.
Cale, a pioneering Welsh singer and songwriter who was the co-founder of the rock band The Velvet Underground, is seated against a kitchen counter. The 84-year-old musician continues to make music and collaborated with Aitchison on the song “House” for the “Wuthering Heights” film released Feb. 13.
Following the release of her new project, Aitchison is slated to headline major summer music festivals including Lollapalooza in Chicago, and the Reading and Leeds Festival in the United Kingdom, Stereogum reported.
