They say that there’s no such thing as an overnight success. But for 21-year-old breakout artist Benson Boone, what happened when his career suddenly skyrocketed seems too good to be true.“I didn’t want to download it. I don’t want to be like one of those guys, so I stayed off it for a while. And then eventually, I downloaded it. I mean, you know, why not?” he toldHe said he started posting “random dumb videos” on the app, and those started to blow up.
“It made me really excited because obviously, before TikTok, there’s not really a way to do that. There’s no way to get one of your videos and your voice to five million people overnight. It’s crazy,” the American singer-songwriter said.Initially an architecture and interior design student, Boone said he thought that’s what he was going to do for the rest of his life.
Eager to extend his set, Boone covered Sam Smith’s “I’m Not the Only One,” demonstrating how his distinct vocal style. The last two songs were from his first EP, Walk Me Home…, which are “Ghost Town,” which was inspired by his friend’s toxic relationship and was Boone’s first entry on the Billboard Hot 100, and the heartfelt ballad “In the Stars” that Boone wrote to evoke his grief about his grandmother.
