  1. Whatever’s Clever! is set to arrive on March 6, 2026, via Atlantic Records. Puth co-produced the album with BloodPop, best known for his work with Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, Beyoncé, and more. Whatever’s Clever! will be Puth’s fourth album and first since 2022’s Charlie. While “Changes” will definitely appear on the record, a full track list hasn’t been revealed yet, so it’s unclear if the album will also feature some of Puth’s other singles from the past few years, including “That’s Not How This Works,” “Lipstick,” and “Hero.” (Last year, Puth also dropped a one-off holiday song, “December 25th,” which he said he wrote “on a whim” while working on Whatever’s Clever!) Last month, Puth debuted “Changes,” and a few other songs, at a four-night residency at New York’s Blue Note Jazz Club (with one show featuring a cameo from one of Puth’s songwriting heroes, Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds). Puth will kick off a similar solid-out run at the Blue Note in Los Angeles tonight, Oct. 16, with shows scheduled through Oct. 19. x The singer revealed his wife Brooke Sansone is pregnant and expecting the couple’s first baby, sharing the happy news in “Changes” music video

  4. "Would not be forced to participate" My only issue is capitalism does the same thing over and over and over again. Your told something is optional or a choice and technically it may be but in practice when something becomes the standard it forces you into it You can be an artist without a record label but when everyone else has them helping promotion you end up needing them to compete You dont have to pay for youtube ads but when other successful accounts use them you end up needing them to compete Cell phones for each family member or home internet service was a luxury until world revolved around that connectivity and now you basically have to have it I never trust major revolutions that are "optional". In the long run they never end up being optional.

  23. Wow, that is honestly so shocking and upsetting to hear. I can only imagine the sheer level of panic, frustration, and disbelief that must have hit Beyoncé’s team when they discovered what was missing. These tours aren’t just big shows they’re the product of months (and often years) of incredibly detailed planning, rehearsals, design work, and creative brainstorming. Losing hard drives and jump drives right before opening night is, in a way, like losing the heart of the show. It’s especially heartbreaking because those stolen drives likely hold far more than just technical files they probably include unreleased music, special edits or remixes crafted just for this tour, set lists carefully designed to create an emotional arc during the show, and raw behind-the-scenes footage that was never meant to see the public eye. Some of it might even contain new experimental material or personal recordings that Beyoncé and her team hadn’t decided whether to release. The creative process often involves rough drafts, ideas that get changed later, and deeply personal notes. Having that stolen and potentially exposed must feel deeply violating. And beyond Beyoncé herself, think of everyone who contributed to that content: producers, sound engineers, choreographers, dancers, lighting and stage designers, visual artists, and countless others whose work might never be credited publicly but is essential to what fans see on stage. Their ideas and months of effort are now at risk of being leaked, misinterpreted, or simply lost forever if those drives aren’t recovered. That must weigh heavily on everyone involved, both creatively and professionally. It also shows how even in huge productions backed by sophisticated teams and big budgets, there’s still a vulnerability to something as mundane as a break-in. Touring involves constant movement, new cities, and reliance on local logistics. You might have world-class security backstage, but when you’re rushing between rehearsals and hotels, something as simple as a rental car in a parking deck can become a weak link. It’s a powerful reminder of how fragile even the most meticulously planned projects can be when real life intervenes. From a purely logistical perspective, the days and nights leading up to opening night are already packed with final rehearsals, sound checks, lighting cues, last-minute costume adjustments, and media obligations. Adding the chaos of a police report, insurance claims, and the emotional weight of what was lost must have been incredibly overwhelming. Yet somehow, artists and crews often find a way to regroup and carry on which is something that rarely gets acknowledged when we watch the final performance. The personal side is just as sad. Christopher Grant and Diandre Blue not only lost work items but also personal things like designer sunglasses, laptops, clothes, and headphones. Beyond the cost, those are things people rely on daily when traveling, and losing them the night before a major event is disruptive and unsettling. Plus, there’s probably a feeling of guilt or responsibility even if it wasn’t their fault simply because those drives were in their possession when the theft happened. That pressure must be enormous. I also keep thinking about the possibility of the unreleased material leaking. Beyoncé is known for her incredibly controlled and carefully timed releases, which is part of why her albums and tours have such cultural impact. If raw footage, half-finished mixes, or private set lists appeared online, it could spoil surprises planned for fans and undercut months of creative strategy. It’s more than just an artistic issue there are financial and legal implications, too, including contracts, licensing, and branding deals built around the planned rollout. And then there’s the question of motive. Was this a crime of opportunity someone just smashing a window for valuables, not realizing whose car it was? Or did someone know exactly what they were after? The fact that it happened at a well-known spot like Krog Street Market could go either way: it might simply be an area where thieves look for quick scores, or it could have been scouted because the tour was in town. Either way, it shows how even the best-prepared teams can’t fully prevent unpredictable risks, especially in public spaces. It’s a relief to hear that police moved quickly and issued a warrant for a suspect hopefully that means they have solid leads and might recover at least some of what was taken. But I imagine that the fear doesn’t go away immediately, even if the drives are found. The team would still have to wonder: were copies made? Could someone still leak something later? It must be incredibly hard to feel secure again after something like this. On a bigger level, it highlights just how deeply touring productions rely on digital media these days. Decades ago, a tour’s set list might have been written in a binder, and choreography might have been sketched out on paper. Today, so much is digital: video projections, lighting cues, sound effects, remixes, rehearsal footage, and of course, the music itself. That makes things far more powerful creatively but also introduces a new level of risk if those files aren’t encrypted, backed up, and guarded at all times. It also makes me appreciate how much we, as audiences, don’t see. When we watch a show, it looks seamless, magical, larger than life but behind that is a team that works through late nights, travel exhaustion, unexpected setbacks, and, in rare cases like this, real emergencies. The show must go on, even when everything is far from perfect. And often, the audience never knows the difference, because the team has worked so hard to keep the vision intact. Ultimately, I really hope this gets resolved quickly and with as little damage as possible. It must have been a terrifying and heartbreaking moment for everyone involved, especially given the scale of the tour and the love and effort that went into building it. And hopefully it sparks an even stronger commitment to protecting creative work in the future not because anyone was careless, but because it’s a reminder that even the biggest stars and the most professional teams still have to contend with the unpredictability of the real world. Fingers crossed that the suspect is caught soon, the drives are recovered, and the team can refocus on what they set out to do: bring something extraordinary to the stage for the fans who’ve been waiting. It must be incredibly hard to keep spirits high after something like this, but I have no doubt that Beyoncé’s team will find a way to keep pushing forward. It really shows how much heart, resilience, and unseen struggle lies behind every live show we see.

  34. Vanish into you is such a special song. Personally, the music, lyrics and message are so deep.. I want it to truly get its flowers but I don’t know know what format is the best fit to match the true sacred, personal greatness of this song…… if it gets a live tour video…. Maybe I’d love it to be done in an more complex and artist way, where she starts off as Stefani at the bitter end, and shots are cleverly blended with MAYHEM ball footage, and blended with her in private singing next to her faceless lover (representing Michael), and each character somehow ie continually fading in and out of each other. A shot Gaga has a flashback finds herself back at the bitter end, and a shot where Stefani day streams herself to be on stage at the Mayhem ball, and there’s emotion on both sides, with one post-Fame yearning for the security of past, the other yearning pre-Fame to a be a star.
