The Guardian’s music editor Ben Beaumont-Thomas and Hannah Moore discuss Brat by Charli XCX, which is set to be the defining album of 2024 and has set the scene for a “brat summer”. Ben also looks at new releases from Sabrina Carpenter and Chappell Roan and discusses changing attitudes to country music in the UK scene.
The books editor Lucy Knight discusses new novels including Long Island Compromise by the author and journalist Taffy Brodesser-Akner. Her previous book, Fleishman Is in Trouble, was turned into an award-winning HBO series. And the film and TV critic Leila Latif looks at what is coming to screens this summer including Blink Twice, the directorial debut by Zoë Kravitz, and Natalie Portman’s first TV series, the thriller Lady in the Lake.
