I kept delaying the release of this episode in case the remixed Hello Goodbye materialised but it’s time to just accept the world as it is. Today on Star Quality, Kat McKenna and I draft the Brat remixes, assessing whether the guests who hopped on add something or whether we preferred the original.
Star Quality is a podcast about the 360 business of being a popstar. Charli xcx has smashed it with her most recent album Brat. A marketing supersweep and songs that carved out a new clubpop niche, plus the song that finally made me take an interest in Billie Eilish.
Popstars mentioned: Taylor Swift, Matty Healy, Bladee, Tinashe, Kesha, Julian Casablancas, Addison Rae, One Direction, Billie Eilish, Sophie, Ariana Grande.
