Barack Obama has joined the ranks of ‘brat summer’ fans, praising Charli XCX and her album ‘brat’ for its cultural impact. The album, with its iconic neon green cover, has influenced everything from social media trends to American politics, including Kamala Harris’s campaign, which adopted the ‘brat’ branding to appeal to Gen Z voters. Charli XCX herself endorsed Harris, declaring “Kamala IS brat.” Obama recently revealed his appreciation for the album on the ‘I’ve Had It’ podcast after including Charli's song ‘365’ on his 2024 summer playlist, stating, “Charli XCX — she knows what she’s doing.”
