AceShowbiz - Charli XCX's new single "After the Afterparty" featuring Lil Yachty has arrived. The single serves as the first track of her upcoming third studio album. It features a dinky piano melody and a breezy hook which eventually blossom into a stomping party anthem.
Charli sings, "Cause after the afterparty/ we're gonna keep it goin'/ We're gonna rip it up/ the neighbors might complain/ 'Cause after the afterparty/ we're gonna stay 'til mornin'/ Then when the time is up/ we'll do it all again/ Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah/ We're all in love/ We're all in love."
Lil, meanwhile, raps, "The party just ended/ but I'm not done with you/ My folks are out of town/ we got a crib with a view/ Come over, bring a couple friends/ I keep mine with me/ Shout out to Whitney/ she was so wicked/ The party was so crazy/ the party was so crazy/ Tomorrow I'll be lazy/ but I'll spend it with you baby."
"AFTER THE AFTERPARTY IS OUT NOW!! PLAY IT AT UR HALLOWEEN PARTY/BIRTHDAY/FUNERAL HAPPY HAUNTING ANGELS," Charli posts on Twitter.

Charli previously opened up about her still-untitled album, which is slated for a 2017 release. "I want to make the best pop album of 2017. I really just wanted to be Britney Spears when I was younger," she told The Fader, "I didn't want to make just an album with SOPHIE, and I didn't want to make just an album with Stargate. I wanted to make an album with SOPHIE and Stargate. Sure, some of SOPHIE's records are a little harsh and off-the-wall, but the goal is to be making progressive pop music."
