Charli XCX’s viral ‘Kamala IS brat’ tweet has helped shape Kamala Harris’ presidential election campaign. While this was unintentional – ‘politics doesn’t feed my art,’ she says – the singer is embracing it.
Pop star Charli XCX’s influence on US Vice-President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign is undeniable – even if the British singer says it was unintentional.
The “Vroom Vroom” and “Guess” singer shared her thoughts about how her viral Brat album and its slime-green aesthetic became a cornerstone of Harris’ social media strategy, clarifying in a recent interview she does not see herself as “a political artist”.
“I’m not Bob Dylan, and I’ve never pretended to be,” she told New York Magazine in a cover story published on August 26.
