Alex Warren has had quite the year thanks to the success of breakthrough single “Ordinary.” And now, the track has found a new home on the TikToker’s debut album You’ll Be Alright, Kid, which finally dropped in full on Friday (July 18).

Featuring all of the tracks on Warren’s 2024 extended play, You’ll Be Alright, Kid (Chapter 1) — including “Ordinary” — the now-complete collection includes a batch of brand new songs. Among them are previously released singles “Bloodline” featuring Jelly Roll and “On My Mind” with ROSÉ of BLACKPINK, as well as the titles “Eternity,” “The Outside,” “First Time on Earth,” “Never Be Far,” “Everything,” “Getaway Car,” “Who I Am” and “You Can’t Stop This.”

The project arrives as Warren is spending his sixth week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Ordinary,” which this past week blocked Drake’s “What Did I Miss?” from reaching the top spot. Drizzy made headlines with his reaction to the placement, writing: “Suppressor on the 1 spot. I’m taking that soon don’t worry one song or another.”

In response, Warren hilariously posted a video of himself dancing to Drake’s “Nokia” with no caption, simply tagging the Toronto native.

The Hot 100 isn’t the only chart the social media star has been dominating, though. “Ordinary” has also racked up a total of 10 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Global 200, though “Golden” from the KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack recently dethroned it from the summit.

You’ll Be Alright, Kid comes about four years after Warren dropped his debut single, “One Last I Love You.” The California native first rose to fame as a TikTok influencer, co-founding the platform’s Hype House.

Ed Sheeran Addresses Controversy at First Show Since Openers, Backing Band Dropped Off Tour, Calls It ‘The Best Show of My Life’

Before his show in Philadelphia, Sheeran read a statement acknowledging the issue of Israel and Palestine, but still tried to keep things neutral.

Ed Sheeran needed to address the situation before he could start playing guitar. It wasn’t how he wanted to start his show, and he’s made it abundantly clear that the last thing he wants around him is controversy or, in his words, to be an “activist musician.”

But here he was, at the first show after his opener and friend Macklemore was kicked off the tour, following pressure by a group of venue owners led by Robert Kraft who took issue with Macklemore’s statement of support toward Palestine. That led to the rest of the tour’s openers and even Sheeran’s backing band for the tour dropping off the tour in solidarity with Macklemore — all of which became a huge news story and PR nightmare for the usually very un-controversial Sheeran. And though he had already made one highly scrutinized statement online while the news story was at its most potent, Sheeran felt the need to address the crowd at Philadelphia’s Lincoln Financial Field on Saturday night (Sept. 19) in person, before the show really started.
