GREYSON CHANCE PERFORMS STRIPPED-BACK RENDITION OF ‘LOW’: Three months after the release of Greyson Chance’s emotional single “Low” in December, Billboard has premiered an exclusive intimate version of the song that the 20-year-old pop singer recently performed at Roland Studios. “‘Low’ is about my former instinct to always run away from love and from promising relationships,” Chance said of the track. “The song speaks directly to a period of my life last summer when I was at an all-time standstill and was unsure as to whether or not I would ever find comfort within another people.” Though Chance hasn’t released a full-length since his debut album Hold On ‘Til The Night in 2011, he has put out numerous singles over the years, including the 2017 slow jam “Seasons” and his take on “Hungry Eyes” from the Dirty Dancing (2017) soundtrack.

CAMILA CABELLO DROPS ‘NEVER BE THE SAME’ VIDEO: After a glimpse at Camila Cabello’s latest music video, you may find you’ll never be the same. The former Fifth Harmony member, who’s racked up more than 500 million views on YouTube in just four months with the massive “Havana,” seeks to match the production’s success with her brand new video for “Never Be The Same,” which dropped Thursday. The treatment’s her second from her debut self-titled album, which was released in January to critical acclaim. The video combines grainy home-movie style clips of Camila in a hotel room with more polished, fashion-forward clips. In a contemporary red outfit she poses against giant space rocks while in others she preens around a large metallic sculpture. It’s an artsy departure from the “Havana” video’s cute romantic comedy structure.
