No less a celebrity than Taylor Swift<\/strong> believes that Charlie Puth<\/strong> “should be a bigger artist” \u2014 after all, she sings it in the title track<\/strong><\/a> of her current album. But does Charlie\u00a0believe he should be a bigger artist? Well, yes, but not because he wants to, say, launch a tour that’s on the scale of Taylor’s.<\/p>\n

Speaking to <\/strong>Vulture<\/strong><\/em><\/a>,<\/em> Charlie says, “If it means I can reach ten more people, then I would like to be a bigger artist. I don\u2019t want to be a bigger artist to inflate my own ego. I\u2019m fine where it\u2019s at.”<\/p>\n

“I don\u2019t strive to be a bigger artist to look like a cooler guy,” he continues. “I don\u2019t even know if I want to play stadiums. I just want to inspire 80,000 people, maybe not have them see me in the stadium. Do stadiums sound good when you play in them? The acoustics are all over the place. But, I mean, I wouldn\u2019t be opposed.”<\/p>\n

Charlie recently released his new song, “Hero<\/strong><\/a>,” after being inspired by Taylor’s shout-out. But if you’re not feeling it at the moment, Charlie says that’s great. “I\u2019d like for people not to almost like it immediately,” he says.<\/p>\n

“Of course, I\u00a0want\u00a0<\/em>them to like it, but I\u2019d like them to be unsure of how they feel about it,” he adds. “It\u2019s not anything I\u2019ve ever done before. …\u00a0It\u2019s almost jarring. ‘Ooh, a guitar in a new Charlie song?’ I don\u2019t even know how to play guitar.”<\/p>\n

As for why the song ends abruptly<\/strong><\/a>, Charlie explains, “Well, the real answer is that an album will happen and you\u2019ll hear more. You\u2019ll hear the actual B part of things \u2014 stuff that Taylor does really, really, really well.”<\/p>\n
