It’s a Brat and Billie summer! On Thursday, Charli XCX and Billie Eilish released a remix for Charli’s song “Guess” that’s sending the internet into a frenzy.
The pair also released a video that follows the stars at a steamy house party with underwear flying, playing on Charli’s lyric, “You wanna guess the color of my underwear/You wanna know what I got going on down there.”
Mid-video, Eilish (literally) crashes the flying-panty party as she drives into the building on a massive tractor. In her verse, Eilish offers a sexy response to Charli’s undie-guessing verse as she sings about her “lacy black pair with the little bows/the ones I picked out for you in Tokyo.”
ICharli and Eilish then walk through a post-apocalyptic, undergarment-overtaken city. “Charli likes boys but she knows I’d hit it,” declares Eilish. The video was directed by Aidan Zamiri, who also shot Rolling Stone‘s Eilish cover and Charli’s “360” video.
All of the bras and underwear used in the music video (and there were hundreds) were donated to I Support the Girls, a nonprofit organization that distributes undergarments and menstrual hygiene products to those experiencing homelessness.
“This was like too much fun to make,” Finneas, Eilish’s brother and producer, wrote on Instagram Stories hours before the track’s release.
The new remix comes a day after Charli posted a photo of her back next to another artist, showing off three boxers, as she asked fans to guess who was on the new version of the song. Last week, the singer teased the new drop by sharing a post from different outlets claiming that “Brat summer is over.” In the caption, Charli wrote, “Oh? See u next week.” Her manager Brandon Creed added in the comments, “They don’t even know.”
Brat — in all its iterations — has taken over social media, even inspiring memes of Vice President Kamala Harris after she launched her presidential campaign in Atlanta. Charli’s last Brat track arrived in late June when she dropped a version of “Girl, So Confusing,” alongside Lorde. She also followed up the original release of Brat with a deluxe edition titled, Brat and it’s the same but there’s three more songs so it’s not.
Since dropping Brat‘s lead single “Von Dutch,” Charli has released several new versions of the LP’s songs, including a reimagining of “Von Dutch” with Addison Rae and A.G. Cook and a remix of “360” with Yung Lean and Robyn.
“Brat seesaws between extremes from song to song, a hyperpop roller coaster of post-Saturn return, early-thirties anxieties, and It-girl bravado,” read a Rolling Stone review of the album.
