“He predicted the success of without me before I had faith in myself,” Halsey added.

Mayer says in the voicemail audio: “Your best song is the song that’s currently on the radio. How many people can say that? That their best song was the one that’s currently about to be a massive hit. It’s already a hit. It’s just gonna get more massive. How many people can say it? Not very many. Congratulations!”
