Charlie Puth Says 'Attention' Made Him an Artist in 'Billboard' Cover Story
Charlie Puth didn’t actually feel like a true artist until the moment “Attention” came around.
Speaking with Billboard in his cover story, the singer/songwriter opened up about how after his first album was rushed, he re-focused on the basics.
“I didn’t feel like an artist until ‘Attention’ came out,” Charlie revealed. “And I feel like people are just starting to get it. I’m not mad that they’re just finding out — they’re getting the message I wasn’t allowed to say before.”
He adds, “‘Attention’ is me saying, ‘F*** everybody: I’m doing this song the way I want to do it.’”
Charlie‘s upcoming album, Voice Notes, will be out in May.
