The pair wants to be loved with the new track
Platinum recording artist Paul Russell has enlisted Grammy Award-winning hitmaker Meghan Trainor to dance through the pain of unrequited love on their new certified bop “Slippin” out now via Arista Records.
While unrequited love might generally leave us feeling alone, Paul and Meghan remind us that they’re here to help us dance it out. Russell explains, “Needed something new to scream at 2 am karaoke. It’s hard enough finding someone to love. Getting them to love you back? Even harder. The song is emotional, but it’s not a sad song. It’s meant to bring people together. It’s a song you want to sing along to. I hope so anyway!”
On teaming up with Paul, Meghan shares, “Paul is an absolute gem of a human! He is the sweetest, so talented and deserves all his dreams to come true. We had SO much fun working on this song, and I can’t wait to spend more time together on tour this fall!”
The release follows a busy top half of the year for Paul who kicked off 2024 with the release of acclaimed singles “Say Cheese,” named one of the Best Hip-Hop Songs of the Year, and “Eat Pray Love,” which continues to see thousands of creations across social platforms and got a fresh summer remix from Free Nationals. This year also saw the platinum certification of his global hit “Lil Boo Thang,” which has over half a billion streams to date.
Paul has also made debut live performances everywhere from the White House, to American Idol, to joining Teddy Swims on his first European tour. He’ll keep that going this fall when he joins Meghan Trainor at arenas across North America on her Timeless Tour.
