Charlie Puth interview on his latest album

Charlie Puth tells MarkMeets.com that his latest album is his most “personal” work so far

The 30-year-old singer is set to release his third record ‘Charlie’ in October 2022 and admitted that although it is a “cliche, the album is closest to his heart because of how much of his “personality” he has put into it.

American singer, songwriter, and record producer said: “It may be a bit of a cliche for an artist to sit on this white couch and be like ‘Oh this is my most personal work’ but for me it is for be because I’ve never had an entire body of work that was my personality with some melody attached to it.”

The 30 year-old hitmaker – who is currently thought to be single but previously dated the likes of model Charlotte Lawrence and pop star Selena Gomez – can be seen posing against a white backdrop with music notes behind him and explained that the artwork “speaks for itself.”

“I mean, the album cover speaks for itself too. All of those little thoughts and coming out of my head and the notes. There’s a song called ‘Smells Like Me’ and there’s a song called ‘There’s a First Time For Everything’ and I want your brain to go into a million places when you read these titles but I also want people to be familiar with them like they’ve heard them before because they have heard them before.

Charlie Puth’s love life isn’t going so great—at least, not according to most of the singles (see: “That’s Hilarious”) off his forthcoming album, CHARLIE. His latest release, “I Don’t Think That I Like Her,” is no exception. Produced by Puth himself and featuring blink-182’s Travis Barker on drums, the song was first teased on the pop singer’s now-deleted TikTok, where it racked up over 4.5 million views in less than 24 hours. When the full version finally arrived today, it quickly floated into the Top 20 on the Genius Top Songs chart.

On “I Don’t Think That I Like Her,” Puth plays the usual dating game. He meets a girl, thinks she’s the one, gets his heart broken, and then to maintain some semblance of dignity, tells himself he didn’t like her all that much, either. It’s a little sad, a little funny, and oh so relatable.

“This whole album is produced by me, I wrote it with a very, very small group of people.”

‘Charlie’ is set for release on October 7.
