“Sucker” is the title track and headstrong opener of Charli XCX’s sophomore studio album.

In this punk-inspired track, Charli brags about living the rock life, while rejecting an overly eager pursuer. The song is a ‘FU’ to people who didn’t believe she had what it takes to take on the industry:

In an interview with Pitchfork, Charli stated:

I find it difficult to deal with someone who rejects me and then kisses my ass later—even though I know that’s what the whole music industry is. One of the lines in “Sucker” goes, “You joined my club/Luke loves your stuff.” People would always come up to me and say, “Oh, [Dr.] Luke loves your stuff, well done”—as if that means, “You’ve made it.” That’s fucking weird to me.
