"This is a song I wrote about my friend called 'Hero.' Sometimes I get a little nervous being overly honest in my music which is why this was sitting on my hard drive for awhile," he continued.

"But I think someone out there was giving me a sign that I needed to release it."

Charlie finished by writing, "So… I declare 'Hero' will be out everywhere on May 24th as the first single of my new album. Thank you for your support… you know who you are."

TTPD was released on April 19 and directly references the See You Again artist in the line, "You smokеd, then ate seven bars of chocolate / We declared Charlie Puth should be a bigger artist."

Charlie reacted to Taylor's name-check on April 28 when he reposted her emotional reaction to the album's viral success.
