Charlie Puth

Charlie Puth is an American singer-songwriter who started by making and covering songs on his YouTube channel. His big break came when he was featured on the Furious 7 song “See You Again,” which he had written for a friend who passed away in a similar accident. The song reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and stayed there for twelve weeks, becoming the longest-running rap number one along with Eminem’s “Lose Yourself.” The song’s iconic music video was also the most viewed video on all of YouTube for a short amount of time when it passed PSY’s “Gangnam Style” in July 2017. His first project, The Otto Tunes, was released in 2010, with the title being a play on his middle name, Otto, and autotune. His second release, Ego, was also self-produced and dropped in October 2013. His major-label debut Nine Track Mind was released January 29, 2016, and lead single “Marvin Gaye” with Meghan Trainor topped the charts in the UK and reached the top twenty-five in the US, peaking at #21. His next single “One Call Away” fared even better, hitting #12 in the US and establishing Puth as a full-blown star as opposed to a two-hit wonder. A deluxe edition of the record was released in November 2016. The next year saw the release of “Attention” and eventually Voicenotes, Charlie’s second studio album. After the release of Voicenotes, Charlie took a break from releasing full-length works and instead wrote songs for other artists, was featured on others, and began posting snippets of new songs to his TikTok account. Finally, in 2022, Charlie announced his self-titled 3rd album, his first full-length release in years, and released the lead single from the album, “Light Switch” two days later. Two more singles, “That’s Hilarious” and “Left and Right” followed, the latter being a collaboration with BTS’s Jung Kook. CHARLIE was released on October 7, 2022. Puth has what is known as perfect pitch, the ability to identify a note by ear. This talent allowed him to step in for a church organist and played all of the songs that were part of the service from memory.
