(HRPR) Ahead of his highly anticipated Super Bowl performance in San Francisco this weekend, internationally acclaimed, multi-platinum and award-winning artist, producer, musician and songwriter Charlie Puth releases his new single, "Cry," featuring the legendary Kenny G on saxophone.
Written as a reflection on lessons learned from family, growth, and navigating life's pressures, "Cry" encourages listeners to embrace emotion rather than suppress it. Anchored by the lyric "It's not for nothing, feeling something - you know everybody cries," the song highlights the strength found in vulnerability.
"'Cry' is about allowing yourself to feel things fully," says Puth. "I grew up watching people I admire carry emotional weight quietly. This song is a reminder that expressing emotion is not weakness - it's human, and sometimes it's exactly what helps you grow."
The single is the third song released from his highly anticipated forthcoming studio album Whatever's Clever!, out on March 27. This weekend, Puth takes the world stage at the Super Bowl in San Francisco to perform a special rendition of the national anthem, then on April 22, he will begin in Whatever's Clever! World Tour in North America at the Viejas Arena in San Diego. Bringing his A+ band on the road with him, together they will be performing hits old and new across 34-dates in North America before venturing to Europe and the United Kingdom this summer.
