Charli XCX paid tribute to his friend and collaborator SOPHIE, the influential producer who recently died at the age of 34. “It’s very difficult for me to summarize the special connection I felt with such an amazing person who completely changed my life,” Charli wrote. “There are so many memories, so many small details, so many different points of view and incredible feelings and stories. It’s impossible to summarize the trip I took with Sophie. ”
The statement closes: “She taught me so much about me without realizing it. I wish I had told her more how special she was, not only her music, but her as a person. I love you and I will never forget you Sophie. “Read the full statement below.
The first notable collaboration of Charli and SOPHIE was the pop singer Vroom Vroom EP, released in 2016. This release helped set the tone for the following collaborations: Together, they made songs for Number 1 Angel (“Roll With Me”, “Lipgloss”) and Pop 2 (“Out of my head”).
