By the Numbers
Voicenotes is Charlie Puth's clearest statement of self-production: the liner notes credit him as producer of all tracks except where noted, and he co-wrote every song, most often just with Jacob Kasher. He also played much of the instrumentation himself, from bass to keys, and handled recording and mixing. The few outside hands, Rickard Goransson producing 'Empty Cups' and Johan Carlsson co-producing two tracks, are the exceptions on an album he otherwise built alone.
Voicenotes is the second studio album by Charlie Puth, released in May 2018 and the record where he took full creative control. He produced every track himself, except where a co-producer is noted, and wrote or co-wrote all thirteen songs, mostly with his frequent partner Jacob Kasher. Built around clean, retro-leaning pop with live bass and keys, it leans into his musicianship and self-production, with the singles 'Attention' and 'How Long' becoming major hits. Guests include Kehlani, Boyz II Men, and James Taylor, and the album drew praise for showing how much of the music Puth handles himself. It is certified platinum in the United States.
