Charli XCX drops trap infused track "5 In The Morning"
"5 In The Morning" fuses Charli XCX's signature contagious pop with a trap beat, as she drops her new track without any notice.
Now the dust has settled since her collaboration with Rita Ora, Cardi B and Bebe Rexha, Charli XCX is in the fast line with more material to come.
"5 In The Morning" sees her find a slightly new avenue of sound. The trap heavy beat shines with great production, and also presents a more dramatic, and atmospheric side to her music.
Even lyrically it's different, and sees Charli XCX use more autotune to take on more of a "ballin'" persona.
Taking to Twitter, the British pop star is gearing fans up for a busy year of releases.
i am going to release a lot music this year. and a lot of videos. you’re gonna be so fucking sick of me.
