See You Again

Hip hop
Hip hop

See You Again is a Hip hop act. Their sound grew out of Eminem, 50 Cent, Tyga, Chris Brown and Sam Smith. Those roots explain a lot about how See You Again arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Take Me to Church, Something Just Like This, Save Your Tears, Shape of You and Wrecking Ball, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Maroon 5, Psy, The War and Treaty, Daddy Yankee and Luis Fonsi, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 23 connections around See You Again, reaching back through Eminem and forward to Maroon 5.

Background

"See You Again" is a song by American rapper Wiz Khalifa featuring American singer-songwriter Charlie Puth. Produced by Puth, DJ Frank E and Andrew Cedar, who also co-wrote the song with Khalifa, the song was commissioned for the soundtrack of the 2015 film Furious 7 as a tribute to Fast & Furious actor Paul Walker, who died in a single-vehicle crash on November 30, 2013. The song was released on March 10, 2015, before Furious 7 was released, as the soundtrack's lead single. It was later included as a bonus track on the international release of Puth's debut album, Nine Track Mind (2016).
