Watch Charli XCX set fire to a ‘White Mercedes’ in her new music video

In case you didn’t already know, Charli XCX is the pop gift that keeps on giving.

On Thursday (Oct. 10), the musician unleashed the music for yet another track off her much-anticipated, and recently released studio effort, Charli.

Titled “White Mercedes,” the video begins with the singer inside of a white car (a Mercedes we’re going to assume because we’re not good with cars), which is suspended from a crane.

Decked in a light pink tulle dress and black combat boots, she’s seen riding in the back of a pick-up truck like the fearless MOFO she is and chilling in what looks like a wheat field.

But that’s not all. We get to watch the white car get crushed by the white pick-up truck, get set on fire while still dangling from the crane, and then a white horse randomly shows up.

What can we say, there’s a lot of symbolism in this clip.

The mini-movie was directed by Colin Solal Cardo, who also directed the music video for Charli and Christine and the Queens’ collaboration “Gone.”

Watch the three-and-a-half-minute clip above.

“White Mercedes” is featured on Charli’s Grammy-nominated new record, Charli. The latest track joins previously released singles “February 2017” (with Clairo and Yaeji), “Gone” (with Christine and the Queens), “1999” (with Troye Sivan), “Warm” (with HAIM), “Blame It on Your Love” (with Lizzo), and “Cross You Out” (with Sky Ferreira) on the album.

In support of the self-titled, Charli previously announced plans to embark on a North American fall outing. The Charli LIVE North American tour begins Sept. 20 at the Buckhead Theatre in Atlanta and concludes a month later on Oct. 22 at Terminal 5 in New York.

At the time of publication, a total of eight of the nine shows have been classified as sold out. Those shows include Emo’s in Austin on Sept. 24, Showbox Market in Seattle on Oct. 4, the House of Blues in Chicago on Oct. 12, the 9:30 Club in Washington D.C. on Oct. 18, as well as her two-night engagement at Terminal 5 in New York (Oct. 21 and 22).

Tommy Genesis, Brooke Candy, Dorian Electra, and Allie X will support Charli on select dates.

Charli XCX shares her Yaeji and Clairo collaboration ‘February 2017’

If you don’t think Charli XCX is one of the hardest working musicians in pop music, then you have not been paying attention.

On Friday (Sept. 6), the singer unleashed another new song from her upcoming new album. Titled February 2017,” the latest track features Clairo and Yaeji.

“Collaborating with Yaeji and Clairo was really fun and unique,” the pop star said in a press statement.

“We are all very different artists, but coming together on this song felt so special and right. Clairo and I made a load of songs together in my studio in LA one afternoon at the beginning of the year. None of them were this song but it was so easy to write with her that the second I came up with this idea separately I sent it over to her and she came back with loads of ideas.”

She continues: “We sent over this idea to Yaeji too and she did a really beautiful verse. It sounds so intimate. It’s one of the most intimate moments on the album.”

“February 2017” is featured on Charli’s forthcoming third studio album Charli. Her self-titled is due out next Friday, Sept. 13, through Atlantic Records. Pre-orders for the 15-track record are currently available here.

“February 2017” joins previously released singles “Gone” with Christine and the Queens, “1999” with Troye Sivan, “Warm” with HAIM, “Blame It on Your Love” with Lizzo, and “Cross You Out” with Sky Ferreira.

Charli is the follow-up to 2014’s Sucker.

Earlier this week, Charli joined forces with Christine and the Queens to perform their joint track “Gone” on BBC Radio 1’s Live Lounge. During their set, they even gave the 1975’s catchy tune “TOOTIMETOOTIMETOOTIME” their own spin. Listen to the performance here.

In support of the impending release, Charli previously announced plans to embark on a massive fall tour. The Charli LIVE North American outing begins Sept. 20 at the Buckhead Theatre in Atlanta and concludes a month later on Oct. 22 at Terminal 5 in New York.

At the time of publication, a handful of shows were classified as sold out. Those gigs include Emo’s in Austin on Sept. 24, Showbox Market in Seattle on Oct. 4, the House of Blues in Chicago on Oct. 12, the 9:30 Club in Washington D.C. on Oct. 18, Union Transfer in Philadelphia on Oct. 19, and her final tour stop at Terminal 5 in New York on Oct. 22.

It’s almost Labor Day weekend, and Charli XCX is here to help you celebrate (unless you’re in South Florida like us) with a brand new song.

On Friday (Aug. 30), the musician unleashed the latest single from her upcoming third studio album. Titled “Warm,” the almost four-minute tune finds the singer joining forces with HAIM and questioning the status of a romantic relationship.

“It’s about unrequited love or more just like when you are in it with someone, and they are a player, and you aren’t in that zone, and you just can’t get on the same page,” Charli says about the new song in a press statement

“Danielle [Haim], Este [Haim] and Alana [Haim] came over to our studio house, and they wrote their part, we were in LA when we did that, and I’m just very happy we got to collaborate.”
