    Charli XCX confirms ‘Talk Talk’ remix with Troye Sivan and Dua Lipa 


    Charli XCX has confirmed that a ‘Talk Talk’ remix featuring Troye Sivan and Dua Lipa is on the way.

    Speculation about the collaboration arose earlier this week (September 9), when the ‘360’ singer shared a cryptic post online, indicating to fans that she had teamed up with the two pop stars.

    Sharing a post on her private Instagram account, 360_brat, Charli uploaded a brief clip of Dua Lipa speaking Spanish on a voicenote. In the footage, the ‘Training Season’ singer could be heard saying: “Charli, Troye, un besito para ti,” which translates to “Charli, Troye, a little kiss for you”.

    Immediately, the post got fans talking, with many convinced that it meant that the three of them would be sharing a remix of the ‘Brat’ song ‘Talk Talk’. This came as Charli made the account to tease what may come following the end of ‘Brat’ summer, and the outro to the original ‘Talk Talk’ song saw her sing: “Talk to me in French / talk to me in Spanish / talk to me in your own made-up language”.

    Now, the singer has put rumours to rest and confirmed that the collaborative remix will be arriving tomorrow (September 12).

    “‘Talk talk’ featuring Troye Sivan – Out in 24 hrs,” Charli wrote in a new tweet, shared at 2pm today (September 11). She then shared another update, writing: “Also thank you @dualipa for speaking French and Spanish on the track!”

    Before this, the ‘Von Dutch’ singer shared a video of herself and Troye Sivan lipsyncing to the new remix. Check out the clip below.

    While the singer has confirmed that Dua Lipa has recorded sections for the track, it isn’t yet clear if the song will contain her singing, or just speaking Spanish and French.

    With it dropping tomorrow, the remix will arrive just as Charli XCX and Troye Sivan are gearing up to start their ‘Sweat’ tour later this month. The dates start on Saturday (September 14) with an opening show at  Little Caesars Arena in Detroit. From there, it’ll make stops in Boston, New York, Toronto, Phoenix, Los Angeles and more, before ending in Seattle on October 23. Visit here for any remaining tickets.

    Since its release, ‘Brat’ has gone on to make some huge waves across the music industry and become a pop culture phenomenon. These accolades have included support from Vice President Kamala Harris, former POTUS Barack Obama and NATO.

    In a four-star review of the record, NME wrote: “It all paints a picture of who XCX is in 2024. Growing pains, grief and aching doubts come alongside self-confidence, celebration and the knowledge of the place XCX holds in the musical landscape – indeed, she kicks off ‘360’ with the knowing: “I went my own way and I made it / I’m your favourite reference baby”.

    Last week, A. G. Cook and Finn Keane – two of the producers behind ‘Brat’ – spoke to NME at the 2024 Mercury Prize about what it was like to work on the album, as well as revealing the thing that sets Charli XCX apart from everyone else.

    “This album was very different to work on than pretty much everything else that I’ve taken part in because it was so focused and relentless. Charli really has this clear vision,” Cook explained. “We knew it was going to be called ‘Brat’ for the entire two years of making it, and we cut anything that wasn’t ‘Brat. If it didn’t feel ‘Brat’, it was gone! We’d barely even talk about it again out of embarrassment of it not being ‘Brat’ enough.”

    Keane continued: “Charli always has a vision of where she is and where she wants to go, but with this, I think it was more than ever.”
