Musicians have a unique gift for blending words and melodies, creating music that resonates deeply. Over the years, many artists have crafted songs that touch the heart, but some leave us truly amazed with their extraordinary talent. One such artist is Charlie Puth, whose innovative music-making skills have wowed fans. During a recent appearance on “The Tonight Show,” Puth demonstrated a mind-blowing technique that left the audience in awe. Known for hits like “We Don’t Talk Anymore” and “See You Again," Puth continues to prove his genius as a composer and performer.

Puth, who recently dropped his album Hero, has been winning over fans yet again. During his appearance on The Tonight Show, he went above and beyond to compose a tune in the most unconventional way. While talking to Jimmy Fallon, Puth explained, “My whole thing on TikTok is to prove that anything, anything in this world can be made into music.” Fallon, intrigued by the idea, challenged Puth to prove it using any item in the studio. Puth quickly grabbed a cup and spoon, showing off his incredible creativity as he turned everyday objects into music.

He slowly began tapping the mug with the spoon to create different kinds of sounds. As he tapped higher and higher on the mug, the sound changed each time. Soon, Puth found himself rhythmically tapping on the mug. But he was only getting started. Fallon immediately pulled out a recorder and laptop together with other equipment and asked the singer to record each tap and make music out of it. Without further ado, Puth recorded himself tapping the mug and made it the base beat. Adding more to it, he mentioned that one can casually tone down the note of the beat. Furthermore, he added reverb, bass and other effects with perfect timing using his laptop.

Soon, the artist was playing a flowing tune as a result of the multiple beats and effects, all initiated from a mug and a spoon. “Again, I’m not done. That’s all cup sounds pitched down,” he said as he continued to play the rhythm. The singer lastly added some drums to the entire tune and got a fantastic, smooth composition. “There you go, that’s a whole song. That’s how you do it,” he exclaimed, proud and delighted at the result of his work. His fans echoed applause and cheers for his wonderful talent.

That is amazing!”
