That Voicemail In Halsey's '3AM' Isn't Her Dad — It's John Mayer

Halsey's brand new album Manic dropped today (January 17), and in case you haven't heard it although, you're going to have to trust us once we tell you to stream it ASAP. After the LP's midnight release, the "Without You" singer kindly hopped on Twitter not only to celebrate with fans, although to answer their burning questions about her most raw and susceptible album yet.


"3AM," a track that provides fans with major '90s rock nostalgia, is one of the most buzzed-about songs on the LP, and it's not hard to understand why. Furthermore to its catchy lyrics and melody, the song features killer drums plus a voicemail that gives off total dad vibes. However alas, the voicemail isn't from her dad at all. It's from the one and only John Mayer.


Halsey confirmed Mayer's feature herself on Twitter. "It's @Johnmayer!" She wrote in response to a fan that asked if the recording was of her father. "Haha. He predicted the success of without me before I had faith in myself #manicthealbum." Now that's friendship goals.


In the voicemail, which plays in the final 20 seconds of the track, Mayer praised Halsey for what he called her "best song" however. "Your best song is the song that's currently on the radio," he mentioned. "How several people can mention that? That their best song was the one that's currently about to be a massive hit. It's already a hit. It's just gonna get more massive. How several people can mention it? Not very several. Congratulations!"


Mayer's feature wasn't the only secret the pop star revealed about "3AM." She also shared that the drums on the song were done by Red Hot Chili Peppers' Chad Smith.


Evidently, Halsey's Manic album is more star-studded than we had ever believed. Going in, we knew we were getting features from Dominic Fike, BTS's Suga, and the legendary Alanis Morissette. Although Smith and Mayer? What a pleasant surprise.
