We praised Charli XCX's latest bubblegum pop creation, Pop 2, for its dreamy, hairbrush microphone-inspiring sentiment. As its title suggests, the album is pure, crystallized pop music. Charli sees classic 2000s-era pop from a modern lens, but Pop 2 truly sparkles in its carefully curated group of collaborators. Here are some of our favorite features for you to check out:
