Charli XCX hits out at music industry sexism and bias

Charli XCX thinks she’d be seen as a "music industry god" if she was a man.
The 28-year-old singer – who has been executive producer on docuseries ‘I’m With the Band: Nasty Cherry’ and runs record label Vroom Vroom – has hit out at bias in the business and said women is music are "doubted".
Taking to social media, she wrote in a series of tweets: "I am an artist, a songwriter who’s co written multiple ‘hits’ for myself/other artists, a video director, exec producer of a netflix show, a&r, i run a label, co manage 2 artist..
"if i was a man I’d be hailed as some sort of music industry god but as a woman I’m just – doubted?? (sic)"
The ‘Gone’ hitmaker explained she isn’t looking for sympathy by speaking out, but she wanted to say it "how it is" and urge people in the industry not to "insult" women.
She continued: "Btw i don’t need people to feel sorry for me or anything – i’m just saying it how it is.
"women in this industry are constantly questioned on their validity… ‘did she REALLY write that?’ ‘can she REALLY produce?’ ‘does she REALLY know what she’s doing?’
"i see it all the time. any and all female popstars in 2019 are obviously business women: running their own careers, making their own decisions, directing their own teams, proving points, being groubdreaking and making their own art.
"like, this is SO OBVIOUS. don’t insult us. (sic)"
Meanwhile, Charli recently revealed she’s working on her fourth studio album – the follow-up to this year’s critically-acclaimed self-titled LP ‘Charli’ – and teased the possibility of bringing out two records in 2020.
She tweeted: "i think i want to release 2 albums next year… or at least MAKE 2 albums next year and then if one has to come out early 2021 that’s ok too. i feel very inspired at the moment. (sic)"
