Malachi Barton is launching his music career!

After supplying soundtrack songs for Under Wraps 2, ZOMBIES 4 and Camp Rock 3, the 19-year-old actor just released his debut solo single “Stay for the Credits” on Friday (August 28).

What did Malachi Barton say about his solo music debut?

“Being able to have something that I have controlled from the ground up and being able to fully be a part of the creative process has been really cool. It’s my own thing,” he told Billboard of the song, produced by Aaron Shadrow.

“I don’t have to [make music]. I just get to do it carefreely and just [have] no pressure and no strings attached, which has been great. It’s allowed me to thrive during the creative process.”

What inspired “Stay for the Credits”?

“People [are] judging you based off of what they see online and not taking the time to get to know you as a person. The story is all about staying for the credits and really being willing to go deep and learn about who I am as a person, and not just the things that are portrayed online,” he told Billboard.

“I just hope that people can use the song as an escape. It can be one of those songs that just makes you feel good in the morning when you put it on in the car and you’re just kind of grooving out.”

Will he release more music?

“I’m kind of just gonna let ‘Stay for the Credits’ roll and see what it does. But you never know. I’m keeping it open. Not closing any doors,” he teased.

“I’mma let you know me if you hold up / When it all fades, am I enough? Are you out, are you out when it’s over?” he sings.
