\n\tCharli xcx<\/a> continued to blend the worlds of cinema and music with the release of a short film to accompany her Music, Fashion, Film<\/em><\/a> album on Friday (July 24).\u00a0<\/p>\n \n\tShot entirely in black-and-white to maintain the album\u2019s aesthetic, Charli begins the clip with what feels like more of a journal entry than an introduction, explaining her inspiration and creative process when making Music, Fashion, Film<\/em>.\u00a0<\/p>\n \n\tPrior to the album\u2019s arrival, Charli showed the film in theaters to audiences across the globe to hear and process it visually as she intended.\u00a0<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cThroughout this album process, I\u2019ve been making things with my friends and I\u2019ve been loving every minute of it. I made the whole album with A.G. Cook and Finn Keane,\u201d she said. \u201cTwo people that have become my close, close friends through working on music and creating things together. I\u2019m so excited for you to hear this album.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tEvery song on the album essentially boasts a music video, filled with mountains of cigarettes, various fashion shoots and gallivanting through London. The transitions are where Charli provides context heading into every track. Ahead of \u201cCard Declined,\u201d she details her love for shopping when traveling through cities like Paris and London.<\/p>\n \n\tActor Vincent Cassel stars in the \u201cCamera\u201d video,<\/a> which finds a recording of Charli\u2019s pitch to recruit Cassel and his response. \u201cIt\u2019s kind of about the relationship between performer and camera that is sometimes really tempting and exciting, but can also sometimes be unbelievably vulnerable and a bit embarrassing,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n \n\tThe album closer \u201cNo One Lasts Forever\u201d features an appearance from director David Cronenberg and Charli gives a deeper look into their conversation that took place in Toronto discussing the mortality of life and its connection to art.\u00a0<\/p>\n \n\tMusic, Fashion, Film<\/em> follows Charli helming the Wuthering Heights<\/em> soundtrack in February, which debuted at No. 8 on the Billboard 200<\/a>, and 2024\u2019s Brat<\/em> blockbuster. She\u2019ll perform cuts from her new album when she headlines Lollapalooza <\/a>next Friday (July 31) at Chicago\u2019s Grant Park before embarking on a North American arena tour<\/a> in September.<\/p>\n \n\tWatch the Music, Fashion, Film<\/em> album film below.<\/p>\n \n
