Which ‘Brat’ Song Are You Based on Your Sign?
By Christopher Ramos
I’m tectonic, moves, I make ’em
Shock you like defibrillators
No style, I can’t relate
I’ll always be the one, ah
Capricorn is “360.” Capricorn opens the calendar year, and Capricorn’s song opens Brat. You’re “lookin’ like an icon” because, well, you are. You’re “internationally recognized.” Your “legacy is undebated.” If people love it, if people hate it, Cap doesn’t care what they think… because you know you set the tone, it’s your design. Capricorn is everywhere because there’s always work to do, and nobody else in the zodiac works harder than Cap. As the track’s accompanying music video states, “it’s about being really hot in, like, a scary way.” Capricorn has got that vibe on lock!
Gabbriette, the skinny-eyebrowed Charli compatriot who utters that statement about being scary hot in the video, was the lead vocalist for Nasty Cherry. I listened to their singles all the time in 2019 and never realized until this week that they had anything to do with Charli XCX and were, in fact, deliberately assembled during the course of her one-season Netflix documentary I’m With the Band: Nasty Cherry. (What can I say? I am not a Capricorn, and am sometimes slightly oblivious to such things.) Anyway, their stuff ruled and the repeating “I need to I need to” mantra of Nasty Cherry’s debut song “Win” is also extremely Capricorn-coded.
