“I really had fun doing it and it got me thinking, what if we made a record with guitars…” Charli XCX is tempted to make a guitar record – and she's taking inspiration from Lou Reed

Left-Charli XCX performs at Roskilde Festival 2024 on July 05, 2024 in Roskilde, Denmark; Right-Lou Reed on electric guitar, performs onstage during the 'New Sensations' tour at the Beacon Theatre, New York, New York, October 17, 1984.

It seems like Charli XCX's penchant for experimentation shows no sign of slowing down. After last year's Brat summer, the singer-songwriter has hinted (or possibly teased?) that guitars just might be on the horizon for her seventh studio album.

Last year, rumors swirled that Brat could have been her last album – Charli herself revealed in an interview with Billboard that it very well could have been, if she weren't so intrigued by a certain music legend.
