Charli xcx Announces Release Date for New Album ‘Music, Fashion, Film’ — And Recruits Martin Scorsese For LP Artwork

Charli xcx has announced the release date of her new album Music, Fashion, Film — and recruited some bona fide legends for its album artwork.

The studio LP will be released on July 24 via Atlantic Records and feature both her recent singles “SS26” and “Rock Music.”

The album’s artwork features a black and white photo of three pioneers in the LP title’s disciplines: The Velvet Underground’s John Cale; fashion designer Marc Jacobs; and movie director Martin Scorsese. See the artwork, shot by frequent collaborator Aidan Zamiri, below.

Charli recently collaborated with Cale on the song “House” from her Wuthering Heights soundtrack LP, released in February 2026. She has also modeled for Marc Jacobs in recent years, appearing in a campaign for the designer’s line.

Confirming the news on Instagram, Charli wrote that the album would feature “11 songs” and run for “30 minutes and 5 seconds.” A wider tracklist has not yet been confirmed.

The album’s title comes from “SS26” where the British artist sings: “We’re walkin’ on a runway that goes straight to hell / Nothing’s gonna save us, not music, fashion or film.”

Music, Fashion, Film marks Charli’s first solo studio album since 2024’s brat, which elevated the popstar to a mainstream icon. The album peaked at No. 1 on the U.K.’s Official Albums Chart and at No. 3 on the Billboard 200.

Speaking to British Vogue, Charli said that the album’s new direction — as heard on “Rock Music” — could divide listeners. “For me, it’s fun to flip the form,” she said. “We know there’s gonna be people who are bothered by it, but that’s fine.”

Following the upcoming LP’s release, Charli will headline Chicago’s Lollapalooza Festival (July 31) as well as the U.K.’s Reading & Leeds Festival (Aug. 28-29).
