Charlie Puth

Miles Beard is a record label executive.

Got it.

who lives in California and he and I loved the demo to We Don't Talk Anymore and I think Mike really liked it as well but like wasn't sure and Manny was like you know I mixed your song and I was like play it really fucking loud and

that kick.

He did something to it, Manny Merrick, when he just knows how to, I don't know, he's mixed all my records, but he always does something that just makes the drums so punchy, something that I can't accomplish on my own.

With his help, I can.

And Mike heard it and was like, oh, this is obviously the next thing that we're putting out.

And I was very happy with that decision.

So me and my friend Miles, Miles Beard, were driving around Santa Monica Boulevard.

And he was going through a rough time.

He had just broken up with his now wife, Mina.

And

I was like, do you talk to her anymore?

And he was like, no, we don't talk anymore.

And I just was like, we don't talk anymore.

Like trying to make a parody song again, but trying to make something funny.

We don't talk anymore.

We don't, we don't.

Because you're trying to change the vibe.

I was trying to make a barbershop quartet song.
