Charli XCX Will Feature Ariana Grande, Tinashe on ‘Brat’ Remix Album
Brat summer might be over, but the iconic chartreuse album is getting another life. On Friday, Charli XCX confirmed the collaborators on Brat and it’s completely different but also still brat, including songs with Ariana Grande, Tinashe, the 1975, and Bon Iver. The remix LP is set to drop on Oct. 11.
Over the last several days across the world, Charli’s team has put up neon green billboards with backwards text in the hometowns of the artists featured.

BB Trickz, the Japanese House, Julian Casablancas, Bladee, Caroline Polachek, Jon Hopkins, and Shygirl are also among the newly unveiled artists on the remix album.
Although she has yet to reveal which artists will be featured on which song, she premiered a remix of “Club Classics” featuring Spanish singer BB Trickz during a DJ set over the summer.
Charli dropped several remixes of the album prior to Brat‘s official release in June. Robyn and Yung Lean joined Charli on a reimagining of “360,” Troye Sivan is on a remix of “Talk Talk,” A.G. Cook remixed a version of “Von Dutch” with Addison Rae, Lorde and Charli worked it out on the remix of “Girl, So Confusing,” and Billie Eilish joined Charli on “Guess.”
The Brat remix album will mark the first time Charli taps several of the artists — including Grande, Japanese House, and Bladee — featured on the project. It will also reunite the British pop star with past collaborators.
Charli and Polachek linked on a remix of Polachek’s “Welcome to My Island” with her boyfriend and 1975 drummer George Daniel in 2023, and Charli and Tinashe were featured on Ty Dolla $ign track “Drop That Kitty” back in 2015.
The new album will arrive in the midst of her co-headlining Sweat Tour with Sivan, which Rolling Stone described as “two pop visionaries giving each other their flowers, sweating and smiling big.”
Following the LP’s release, Charli and Troye will head to Phoenix, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Portland, and wrap their tour in Seattle.
