Asher Angel Reinvents Himself with Country Pop Single ‘thinkin bout me’

Asher Angel — the actor who charmed audiences as Billy Batson in Shazam! and Jonah Beck in Disney’s Andi Mack — is stepping into an entirely new spotlight. Today, he unveils “thinkin bout me,” a genre-bending single that marks a confident leap from the glitzy world of mainstream pop into the soulful terrain of Country Pop. More than just a fresh track, this release sets the tone for Angel’s upcoming EP, offering fans a raw, personal, and emotionally charged glimpse into his musical evolution.

Produced by Grammy Award-winning hitmaker Prince Chrishan (Christopher Dotson), the song blends the polish of pop with the unfiltered heart of country storytelling. Chrishan — the creative force behind hits for Chris Brown, Jennifer Lopez, and other industry powerhouses — brings a finely tuned sensitivity to Angel’s new sound. Together, they craft a sonic atmosphere that feels both nostalgic and modern, blending guitar-driven warmth with catchy hooks and rich, layered vocals.

Fans who first encountered Angel through high-energy tracks like “One Thought Away” (featuring Wiz Khalifa) or his previous work with music mogul LA Reid, will find “thinkin bout me” a refreshing pivot. It’s stripped down, emotionally vulnerable, and, most importantly, authentic. The lyrics speak to longing and reflection, capturing the bittersweet ache of missed connections and the echoes of a love that once was.

Angel’s voice shines in this new context — it’s matured, textured, and brimming with genuine feeling. It’s a clear signal that he’s not just experimenting with a new genre, but fully committing to a new artistic chapter.

With “thinkin bout me,” Asher Angel proves he’s more than a teen idol or a superhero — he’s a multi-dimensional artist who isn’t afraid to explore new depths. His bold transition into Country Pop is not just a career move; it’s a statement of reinvention. And if this single is any indication, Asher Angel’s music is about to hit a whole new stride.
