Washington State pop singer-songwriter Benson Boone has built a following over the last three years sharing his music on TikTok, amassing a following of 4 million. Over the past month, the 21-year-old artist has been teasing his unreleased song "Beautiful Things," which is going absolutely crazy on TikTok. The snippet has gained incredible amounts of attention due to its stellar production, led by a guitar and drum heavy break that builds up to the hook, “But I’m up at night, and I think I might lose it all / Please, stay / I want you, I need you, oh God."

The number of videos he’s dropped with the snippet of the song has led to restlessness and overly eager fans begging him to hurry up and release it — I can’t blame them after listening to the snippets; it sounds like it’s going to be a smash and a great addition to his discography. Be on the lookout for the release of the new single “Beautiful Things,” coming out on January 19, 2024. Pre-save the song from this link if you haven’t yet.
