  • Lily Allen and Tate McRae revive the revenge anthem
    Nov 4 2025
    They say the best revenge is living well, but if you’re a pop star going through a break up, that’s false. The best revenge is releasing a searing scorched-earth revenge banger that calls out your ex and, ideally, rides that vengeance to the top of the Billboard charts. That’s exactly what Tate McRae and Lily Allen have done in the wake of their high profile break ups; McRae with the track “TIT FOR TAT” and Allen with an entire album, West End Girl. On this episode of Switched On Pop, Charlie and Nate use these tracks to explore the art of the revenge song. Songs Discussed Tate McRae – TIT FOR TAT The Kid LAROI, Justin Bieber – STAY Angelo Badalamenti – Twin Peaks Theme Fleetwood Mac – Dreams Fleetwood Mac – Go Your Own Way Bizarrap, Shakira – Shakira: Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53 Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Can “professor” Charlie Puth pass our qualifying exam?
    Oct 28 2025
    Charlie Puth breaks down his new single "Changes," a maximalist eighties production hiding a melancholy story about drifting friendships. As he prepares for fatherhood, the singer-songwriter reflects on how relationships evolve from deep conversations to small talk, why he listens to lyrics last, and his belief that music should offer a three-minute escape from life's exhaustion. Between demonstrating vocal techniques, championing forgotten producer Rod Temperton, and turning "You Are My Sunshine" into a minor-key lullaby, Puth makes his case for earning the title "Professor," with one simple lesson: stop overthinking and just feel the music.
