Charli XCX's '5 In The Morning' Is A Turn-Up Anthem For Insomniacs

Charli XCX is back with her first new music — aside from a visitor spot on the controversial posse cut women — since last year's Pop 2, and yes it was well worth the wait.


Right after being debuted while in her supporting sets on Taylor Swift's Reputation Tour, "5 in the Morning" arrived in sleek studio form on Thursday (May 31). On it, Charli is in peak party mode, going off on fakes and wannabes over a trap-pop beat from Invisible Males, the production trio accountable for Iggy Azalea's decorative It's an absolute banger, with Charli celebrating her willingness to grind, no matter what time it is: "I'm goin' all in / It's 5 in the mornin', I'm busy ballin' / I ain't even stoppin'."


Just hours before the release of "5 in the Morning," Charli hinted that she intends to unload more new material over the upcoming months. She tweeted, "I am going to release a lot [of] music this year. And also a lot of videos. You’re gonna be so fucking sick of me."


No official word on once fans can expect Charli's long-awaited third album, although the pop star is clearly in a creative zone, so keep your eyes peeled for more.
