LISTEN: Charlie Puth & Gabby Barrett Collaborate on her “I Hope”
We’ve all been taken back by newcomer Gabby Barrett’s debut single “I Hope,” but maybe not as much as Charlie Puth.
The pop-singer gushed over Gabby in his Instagram story and then, according to People, reached out to her to collaborate.
This isn’t Puth’s first venture into country. He wrote a song with Kacey Musgraves and seems to be quite a fan of the genre. During their on Amazon Live, Puth said, “There hasn’t been a song since, like, ‘I Hope You Dance’ [Lee Ann Womack’s 2000 hit] that has a run-on chorus that doesn’t sound like run-on sentences. It’s the continuous flow, like ‘Before He Cheats’ [Carrie Underwood’s 2005 hit], and there hasn’t been anything like that in so long, and you cracked the code!”
Indeed she did. What do you think?
