The Brat summer/autumn/winter/spring is over.

“BRAT” was a phenomenon that truly reached its tentacles across every corner of the world, and most people would agree that – love it or hate it – it was the word that would spring to mind first if someone asked you what was the dominant musical force over 2024/25.

Its leader, Charli XCX, took to the stage at Glastonbury and delivered the biggest set of her career, before eventually – symbolically – burning it to the ground. No guests, no gimmicks, just Charli in a leather bralette and full command of 60,000 delirious fans.

Naturally, there can be no other artist of the week…
