Remember when CNN anchor Jake Tapper said he’d “aspire to be brat”?
Contrary toPitchfork’s declaration,Brat Summeris still in full swing.
Theaesthetic trendis named after Charli XCX’s sixth studio album,Brat,which dropped in June.

Memorably, CNN anchorJake Tappereven said on air he’d “aspire to be brat.”
Amid all this, Charli has largely stayed quiet on the politicization ofBrat.
As for whether she intended the tweet to make such an impact?

“My music is not political,” she said.
“Everything I do in my life feeds back into my art.
Everything I say, wear, think, enjoy it all funnels back into my art.

Politics doesn’t feed my art.”
