The American singer debuted in 2015 and released numerous hit songs, including "See You Again” (2015), "We Don't Talk Anymore" (2016), "Attention" (2017) and many more.

Puth also collaborated with a few K-pop artists, such as Jungkook of BTS and boy band Stray Kids. He teamed up with Jungkook to release "Left and Right" (2022), which peaked at No. 22 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart. This year, he released "Lose My Breath" with Stray Kids.
