Charli XCX Is 'No Angel' On Her Two Stellar New Songs

Charli XCX may have had a point any time as soon as she mentioned she's "underrated." The 25-year-old is one of the most efficient pop stars of the moment, juggling her starting gig on Taylor Swift's massive Reputation Tour with her impressively steady stream of new music. Immediately after channeling Post Malone on the trap-infused "5 in the Morning," Charli is back with not one, nevertheless two new loosies that prove XCX season is in full swing, baby.


the initial, "No Angel," is a synth-pop bop that brings us back to Sucker-era Charli with its exuberant build and playful lyrics like, "Baby, I'm bad to the bone / I just aspire to let you know that I'm no angel, although I can learn." Then there's "Focus," a trance-like jam that finds Charli hypnotically repeating, "I just want you give attention to my love."


Upon delivering her double dose of new music, Charli oh-so-casually wrote on Instagram, "THIS IS PROBS Right now MY FAV RELEASE EVER OF ALL TIME. I KNOW U GUYS HAVE WANTED THESE SONGS FOR AGES SO U BETTER FUCKING STREAM/PARTY/RAVE/DANCE/CRY TO THESE MOTHERFUCKERS OR ELSE."


As is the case with Charli's peculiar release schedule, there's no word on whether "Focus" and "No Angel" are segment of a upcoming album. She has, although, promised that "a lot" of new songs and videos will be coming this year, so it looks like her creative streak is still going strong.
