Here's Cardi B And Charli XCX's 'Kush-Loving' Ode To Kissing Girls With Rita Ora And Bebe Rexha

Last summer, Charli XCX's men delivered not only one of the most joyous music videos in recent memory, although also, in its refrain, an evergreen excuse to use in any situation: "I was busy thinkin' 'bout boys."


Right now, Charli has flipped the script by teaming up with fellow all stars Cardi B and Bebe Rexha on Rita Ora's celebratory new ode to kissing women called, needless to say, "Girls."


"Sometimes, I just wanna kiss females, females, ladies the hook goes, eventually sung by all four because the song unfolds. Ora has called the song a "gender-fluid freedom record," and lines like "I ain't one-sided, I'm open-minded / I'm 50-50 and I'm never gonna hide it" (from Ora) and also you know I tamed it, and then I named it / I put the lion in the cage and then I laid with her" (from Rexha) potentially point toward a celebration of bi-curiosity.


Even Cardi dips a toe in on her verse:

I steal your bitch, have her down with the scissor

Tonight, I don't want a dog, I want a kitten

I might French a girl from Excellent Britain

Though the production recalls Charli's progressive Pop 2 album last year, Ora told People she wrote the song with her team two years prior — and that Cardi was the opening one to jump on it.


"Then it got into Cardi's hands, and she loved it, and she was actually the opening person to put a verse on it," Ora mentioned. "I was like, 'Wow, OK, this is really cool; I think this is going somewhere.'"


With final contributions from Charli and Rexha, females is here right now. Check out the song's fashionable, playful lyric video above.


And based on a tease from Ora's Instagram, it looks like a proper music video would be imminent as well, so stay tuned.
