Charlie Puth kicked off the rollout for his sophomore album VoiceNotes strong with its massive lead single “Attention,” and we have a feeling this new version featuring KYLE will only expand its reach.
The L.A.-based rapper, who will be performing at this year's ComplexCon, opens up the track with a few bars aimed at his ex, and pops up later to let her know she’s playing with the wrong guy. “Searching for attention in my mentions/But talkin’ shit’s the only way to get some/Nope, but you can try/Trust me baby you ain’t gon’ be gettin’ none of mine,” he raps over the catchy backdrop that’s been a staple on the radio all summer long.
“Attention” has become one of the biggest pop anthems of 2017, with a platinum plaque and a top-five showing on the Billboard Hot 100 chart to boot. If the rest of VoiceNotes—which will feature a more personal narrative from Puth than his debut album Nine Track Mind—follows suit, fans have a lot to look forward to.
Listen to Charlie Puth’s remix of “Attention” with KYLE above and grab the original version on iTunes. David Guetta also put his own electronic spin on the single; check that out here.
