Singer Ally Brooke stopped by Billboard News and opened up about a potential Fifth Harmony reunion, her return to pop music, creating her new holiday EP Under the Tree and more!
Ally Brooke:I’ve just learned to really own who I am and be unapologetic and just be free, that’s what it is, just to be free.
Tetris Kelly: Hey, it’s Tetris with Billboard News, and look who I got hanging out with me today! Ally Brooke. What’s up, girl?
Your return to pop. You said, “You need a banger? Well, I’m gonna give it to ya.” “Gone to Bed,” tell me about the single.
I love it so much. So it’s basically about two lovers. You want to see your lover but you don’t, and you end up seeing that person and you’re like, “Man, I really should have just gone to bed.”
Tetris Kelly:It’s like pop, it’s very in-your-face pop, but you dabbled in a lot of things from Latin to EDM. So what made you decide on this sound for this project?
Ally Brooke:Well, I was going to the Latin route and I loved it, but I felt like I really wanted to go back to who I truly was, you know, the pop artist that I am. I have recently reconnected with my former A&R from the Fifth Harmony days, named Joey Arbagey. He’s amazing; he’s responsible for all the hits. We recently reconnected. He played “Gone to Bed” and I completely fell in love. I was like, “That’s my record.”
Tetris Kelly:And the fact that you’ve worked with him for so long. So how has that been, to be at a new label, but also have somebody that knows you really well?
Ally Brooke:We made, you know, history together. So to have that and to have like a fresh perspective now and being in 2023 is really amazing. I’m kind of bringing that old energy but bringing the new energy too.Watch the full video above!

Meet Boys Are Rolling. The producing trio of Miles Sugarman, Crosby Spagnoli and Arno Sugarman are making a name for themselves by working with artists such as Joey Bada$$, Gunna, JID and Smino. The trio opens about how they came together, the projects they are working on, how they find artists to work with, the future of the group and more!Crosby Spagnoli:I definitely saw some people at the beginning were like, “Whoa, you guys made this.”
Miles Sugarman:It’s always, “You guys made this?” that’s always … Arno Sugarman:They always thought that we would pull up like somebody else’s beats or something.
Miles Sugarman:I’d say the simplest way to put it is Arno will start something, kind of get a great base idea down, we’ll then give it to Crosby. Crosby will polish it up, make it ready to then give to an artist, have it, like, song ready, and then I’ll get it to the artist. I’d say that’s the simplest way to put it.
Boys Are Rolling:Yeah.
Miles Sugarman:Me and Arno are brothers, so I guess we’ve known each other for quite a long time now and Crosby went to our high school. He and I did a music theory class together, and at the time, Arno was making beats on his computer, which wasn’t that popular, at least in my personal opinion. It didn’t seem that popular. And Crosby one day was like, “Oh, yo, like I make beats too, like, check this out.” I thought he was hilarious. I thought his music was really interesting, and because they were the only two that I personally knew that did that kind of, I guess, producing, I was like, “You guys need to meet.”
I find mostly bubbling artists, mainly through Spotify. I’ll check out artists that I really like, see who they’ve worked with or check their Instagram to see who likes them, and you’ll stumble upon something fantastic. Luckily, we now have, I feel like, enough credibility where I can DM someone who’s not, you know, completely blown up and usually we have a good success rate of who will hit us back. That’s my favorite part of this. It’s been like this is great. We want to work with them and actually have the ability to work with them.Watch the full video above!
