The bright side

Latami zarzut wobec Putha byl ze ma talent ale ciagle na niego wskazuje. Na Whatever's Clever! przestaje wskazywac i po prostu gra.

The issues (3)
01

80s cosplay

The entire album sounds like it was produced in 1987. Which would be impressive if it was 1987 and not 2026.

The fix  Nostalgia is a flavor, not a cuisine. Blend the influences instead of photocopying them.

02

Emotional vacancy

Puth writes about his marriage with the emotional depth of a Hallmark card. The feelings are present but the vulnerability is performed.

The fix  Stop producing your emotions. Let a vocal crack exist. Let a mix be imperfect. Be human.

03

TikTok musicology brain

You can hear the moment in every song where Puth thought about how it would perform on social media. The hooks are engineered, not felt.

The fix  Write a song without imagining the TikTok comment section. Just once.

A full teardown from €2,99. No mercy.
