Considering how talented he is and how he is capable of making hits for others like Trey Songz's Slow Motion and 5SOS's Easier, it's weird he can't make hits for himself. It's like all of the creativity goes out the window. I remember seeing someone on TikTok mention how Charlie makes super bland music and Charlie duetted the video and pointed out a few tracks on Voicenotes that have substance and high production quality. And that right there leads me to believe that he's aware he could do better, but just doesn't.

If weak instrumentals are the reason for his own songs downfall, then he needs to work with the same producers he teamed up with to produce other Artists 👍🏽.

Todd in the Shadows said recently that he views there being two types of pop stars. The first is the kind who’ll always have enough force of personality and such a devoted following that they’ll always be able to wear the ups and downs of their career and have people keep coming back after each release (such as Jay-Z, Beyonce, Lady GaGa, and The Weeknd). The second type are the ones who have a more flash-in-the-pan appeal and will only have success while they have good or catchy songs, then will disappear once the hits stop (such as Nelly, Paula Abdul, and Katy Perry). If that theory is true, Charlie Puth falls into the second category for me. He doesn’t seem to have a strong enough personality to last him outside of hit songs, and he doesn’t seem to have the following to back him once he stops having hits. He does have talent, but he doesn’t seem to know what to do as of now.

He didnt/doesnt really expect it to be insane or wtv and pull many views, but there are multiple reasons why he did everyhitn like this. #1: u can make music from practically anything and wanted the audience to feel involved which is WHY he did everything on tiktok as a platform. #2 he made this song to put it out there and have unique elements and make an ALBUM about HIM since hes enver done that + he really jsut cares if ppl who do care and watch it, if it resonates with them or if they can walk around singing along and wtv #3 the reason he doesnt make "better" songs is bc hes a pop musician. hes gonna make music that falls in the genre of pop music + wtv other reason. he said he can definitely make a song that has super interesting and crazy chord progressions and shit like an "e flat major 711 upside down fucking wtv" but thats not gonna produce a song that EVERYONE can sing along to and enjoy and understand.

Basically charlie wants msg out + hes a pop artist so he makes (in my biased opinion) really good pop songs to convey those messages, HOWEVER he COULD most definitely write some classical or very complex song but make it almost impossible to make it an actual song ppl understand or sing along with. Also, the reason ppl Like me LOVE his songs is because if you dig deeper into them theres some parts that i really appreciate in a song and he knows how to make me love his songs instantly (at least for me and others like me). And this recent album, he said he made it kinda targeted towards an audience that wants to hear this typa music (breakup, sad, pop, unique elements) + that he doesnt really care if not a lot of ppl hear it as long as it resonates with the people who do care.

I'm don't think they were actually meant to be on 'Voicenotes 2'. I could be wrong. I think I'd love a whole album in the style of 'Girlfriend'. That would be nice! As an aside, 'Cheating On You' actually came from a beat he made and shared on Instagram that people liked. Basically, a precursor to all his TikTok videos

I saw him live recently and his talent REALLY comes through on these songs live. Lots of ad-libbing and funky solos on his piano and key-taur, as well as epic groovy solos from his guitarist and bass player where the three of them bounce off one another with their solos. Also it’s muuuuch more evident when you see it live that “I Don’t Think That I Like Her” is a joke song, and when this album came out his did say a lot of the content os about his past. Wondering if that one is about teenage Charlie or something. anyway, that’s just my two cents. Voicenotes is definitely my favorite record by him but once you see him live he is anything but mediocre.

I'll call his style as fast food in music as a lot of artists these days are doing. Catering to immature music taste audience and platforms like tiktok and insta where a song just trends for a bit and then is forgotten. I have songs from 70s that sound more fresh than his work. Thing is cheap. His songs sound really out of focus and old very soon. Idk why. I agree he is super talented and he will achieve greatness by keep missong for a while. Coz current albums are like practice bouts. Quick puns sound clever for 3 seconds but they dont make repeatability of a song for the song itself but for a video content the beat will make him quick buck maybe. Idk how money making on tiktok works for musicians. I hope he focuses more on not being a witty teen anymore coz he isnt one.

But I feel like this is an album he needed to release for his own personal experiences regardless of critical opinions. Maybe after the mixed reviews on this album the next one will be more sonically cohesive and include more jazz influences as he always wanted to have like his transition from nine track mind to voicenotes

I agree 😊 I think Charlie Be Quiet, First Time For Everything and Tears On My Piano are all great songs off his new album, though I’m not against critiques that he could push himself even further. I do think Loser was perhaps not the best single choice, to me that song is a little more middle of the road than other options on the album, but it’s by no means a bad song. I also think the subject matter of the songs being about break-ups/relationships can get a little over-used and tiring, and it would be interesting to hear about other topics and important things to him. Voicenotes, however, I think is a great album and in my opinion was one of the best male pop albums of 2018! The Way I Am, BOY, Empty Cups and I’ve Been Through It All are but a few of the great songs on the album, with Slow It Down being the highlight, a fantastic pop song that was dying to be a single. He clearly has the technical knowledge and passion for music and really does have some gems in his discography. Criticisms of a non-presence may be a result of label meddling diluting his vision, but it also may be a simple truth that Charlie just isn’t the enigmatic, glossy pop star that is pushed as the industry standard. It’s okay if he just isn’t into frequent performances, tours, appearances and features. In my opinion there are definitely other mainstream artists out there that are more deserving of the criticism and scrutiny that Charlie receives.

I mean that answer is right in front of y'all. He knows he is talented and knows he can do better but won't because what he makes for other artists and listeners is what currently sells and gets radioplayed. Honestly, I would do the same if I were in his shoes. In this economy, I would value a steady income over the chance of self expression/risk via music. He also knows that nowadays the charts can easily be manipulated to bounce off a viral hit. He is smart in how he approaches this tactic. Also I don't really think he wants to be marketed as a pop act or the next best thing in music. He was always marketed, at least in my eyes, a producer/songwriter first.

He has very short instrumental in tears on my piano. Remember his all hits. See you again, We don't talk anymore, Attention. All had lengthy instrumentals. And my my gosh We don't talk anymore instrumental in the middle was so long and sexy. But now it simple straightforward voical. I don't know why he made Instrumental for STAY and then chose to not make any for himself! When he did it did hit like see you again and wdta

I never really liked him to begin with. Sure, he’s a talented singer, but Jade from Little Mix revealed that he was creepy & weird towards her when they did a collab. He wanted her but she declined him & then he started acting weird towards her. The other girls said this too. Gives me the ick. I also really love bts and it’s sad to see jungkook be such a huge fun of Charlie tbh 😭 like buddy let that man go ! You’re better than him ! Left and Right was such a disappointment tbh. He had THEE jungkook of bts on that song and he still managed to fumble. (1) the song just isn’t good or memorable (2) he barely even gave Jk any lines.. bro what are you doinggg.. ik it’s his song but it’s still a collab & he took up 90% of the song. Almost feels like a clout grab to me but idk..

Heres the thing: the melody of the songs of his album are good but they lack a lot of rhythm, making the songs sound flat, straightforward and boring. Now "charlie be quiet" is the only one who has a little more rhythm to it but the production is a little raw. Its never about how good the lyrics are written, its about him learning how to make his lyrics dance around the beat thus creating more rhythm.

I've been saying this for YEARS. Charlie is definitely a good singer and composer. But that's it. He's got the potential to make great, emotional, even moving songs. But he just doesn't. At least for me, I always get the feeling that I'm about to get a great song, but it falls drastically. They aren't bad songs at all, I just can't connect with his songs in an emotional level, not even once.

I'm going to need Charlie to do a complete 180 on his career; he's incredibly talented no doubt, especially for others, but I think he needs to move away from pop, alternative-pop or edm, I'd like him to try out r&b, soul, jazz? Also adding I had no idea Charlie was 30, artists like Taylor Swift are getting older and their music is also maturing (along with her audience) not to sound rude, but he should take some notes

Lyrically some of the tracks from CHARLIE sounds like it still belongs to Nine Track Mind era. Personally, Voicenotes is his best album. I appreciate his new sound on CHARLIE especially on tracks like Charlie, Be Quiet and IDTILHA. It's different from his other songs. But it lacks the mature tone that he supposed to have in his 30's. But I like him as an artist and appreciate his works. He really need to get his act together and focused on making non-generic music.

Having perfect pitch does not mean you sing in perfect pitch contrary to what a lot of people including OP thinks.

He has a beautiful voice and I like the songs he writes for other people as well as many of his popular songs!! Haven’t listened to the album because I heard light switch & loved it but I became the disinterested in the lead up to the release & after it because of the thirst trapping. Hes 30??
