Charlie Puth releases his new single “Beat Yourself Up,” opening the door to his forthcoming album ‘Whatever’s Clever!’, out March 27. Co-produced with BLOODPOP, the song delivers an emotionally direct message about self-compassion, framed through Puth’s melodic precision and intimate songwriting. The track lands with clarity and warmth, offering reassurance without overstatement and setting a deeply personal tone for the album.
On the inspiration behind the song, Puth shares, “I wanted to tell him that even though he has made mistakes along the way, he shouldn’t be so hard on himself.” As the writing unfolded, the message widened to include himself and others navigating similar inner pressure. The song reflects a broader creative chapter rooted in honesty, emotional openness, and connection, continuing Puth’s evolution as both songwriter and producer.
Alongside the release, Puth announces his 2026 “Whatever’s Clever!” World Tour, his largest global run to date, spanning North America before heading to Europe and the U.K. Beginning April 22 in San Diego, the tour brings a full arena-scale production to fans worldwide. The momentum continues with Puth also confirmed to perform at Super Bowl LX on February 8 in San Francisco, marking another major cultural moment in a year already moving at full speed.
