Chappell Roan has taken the music scene by storm this year, quickly becoming one of the most influential artists of the past few months. After clinching her first MTV VMA for Best New Artist last week, she flew to Europe to perform a series of shows in support of her debut album, The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess. Tonight, the 26-year-old singer takes the stage at the O2 Academy Brixton in London. Ahead of the show, during soundcheck, she shared a list of recent songs she believes will become future classics.

It’s no secret that Chappell is a huge fan of artists like Charli XCX and Ariana Grande, and she’s also close friends with Sabrina Carpenter. So, naturally, some of her idols’ recent hits made the cut. Here are the seven songs she’s certain will become timeless: “Apple” by Charli XCX, “Say So” by Doja Cat, “Good Days” by SZA, “Please Please Please” by Sabrina Carpenter, “thank u, next” by Ariana Grande, “Savage” by Megan Thee Stallion, and “WAP” by Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion.
After tonight’s show in London, Chappell has one more European concert at the Velodrom in Berlin, before heading back to the U.S., where she’ll perform at the All Things Go Festival (Sept. 28-29) and the Austin City Limits Music Festival (Oct. 6-13).
