“You gon’ jump if A. G. made it!" Whenever the British singer-songwriter Charli XCX performs her song “360” live, the crowd, waiting for this line, launches themselves into the air as soon as they hear it. The lyric, from the opening track to Charli’s smash album Brat, refers to her ride-or-die collaborator, A. G. Cook, who produces much of her music and is a key creative consultant for her brand. She knows, as her fans do, how much of the glorious, unhinged fun of her music—and the success of Brat, which became a cultural phenomenon over the summer of 2024—is thanks to Cook’s magic touch.
