Barack Obama has joined Kamala Harris by jumping on the 'Brat' trend.
Barack Obama has added Charli XCX's 'Brat' bop '365' to his annual Summer Playlist.
The former US president has followed in the footsteps of 2024 presidential candidate Kamala Harris, 59, by joining 'Brat Girl Summer'.
The Spotify playlist also includes Billie Eilish’s 'CHIHRO', Tems’ 'Love Me Jeje', Shaboozey’s 'A Bar Song (Tipsy)'.
Plus, The Rolling Stones’ '(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction', Bob Dylan’s 'Silvio', and Sting’s 'If You Love Somebody Set Them Free'.
Obama, 63, wrote on X: “With summer winding down, I wanted to share some songs that I’ve been listening to lately — and it wouldn’t be my playlist if it didn’t include an eclectic mix.
“I hope you find something new to listen to!”
After departed President Joe Biden announced he was giving his “full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee for our party this year”, Charli wrote on X: “Kamala IS brat.”
Soon after the post, Kamala’s official campaign cashed in on the support by changing its banner on X to mimic the style of “Brat”.
After the alteration, it read “kamala hq” in lowercase black lettering with a lime green background.
Charli – real name Charlotte Emma Aitchison – defined her take on the word “brat” in a video on TikTok, saying: “You’re just like that girl who is a little messy and likes to party and maybe says some dumb things sometimes.
“Who feels herself but maybe also has a breakdown. But kind of like parties through it, is very honest, very blunt. A little bit volatile.
“Like does dumb things. But it’s brat. You’re brat. That’s brat.”
Some of Kamala’s most popular quotes and videos were also spliced together and set to Charli’s songs.
Many of the clips were tinted in the lime green hue of the singer’s ‘Brat’ album cover – or the cover pops up in between clips of the politician.
One of the most used quotes is Kamala telling the US president: “We did it, Joe”, after he was elected in 2020 – making her the first female vice president in American history.
