Charli XCX’s ‘360’ is all about confidence and self-assuredness. It’s about owning who you are and making a statement. Charli is talking about her journey to success and how she’s become a major influence.
The song starts with Charli saying, ‘I went my own way and I made it.’ This means she didn’t follow the crowd and still succeeded. She even calls herself ‘your favorite reference,’ showing that people look up to her.
She then compares herself to Gabbriette, who is known for her unique style, and says she’s ‘tectonic,’ meaning her moves are groundbreaking. She shocks like ‘defibrillators,’ meaning she’s electrifying and unforgettable.
The chorus is catchy and all about self-reflection. ‘When you’re in the mirror, do you like what you see?’ Charli’s saying that when you look at yourself, you should see her influence because she’s everywhere.
In the next verse, she calls herself an ‘icon’ and talks about working all the ‘angles’—meaning she’s got all aspects of her image on point. She says, ‘666 with a princess streak,’ blending edgy and soft elements.
The final lines of the song repeat the phrase ‘Bumpin’ that,’ which emphasizes the infectious, catchy beat of the track. Charli is all about making a lasting impact, and ‘360’ shows that in every line.
