After chart-topping collaborations with Bruno Mars, Hayley Williams and Jessie J, the multi-talented Atlanta MC B.o.B. now spits out a few rhymes to spice up and refresh One Republic's new single "Good Life."
Driving force behind OneRepulic continued success is Ryan Tedder, a prolific songwriter who many newcomers and established artists turn to if they're looking for a solid pop hook.
In a recent interview with NPR, Tedder reveals what he thinks makes a catchy pop hook. "Simplicity and memorability," he explains. "It must be a simple melody and one that I think packs an emotional punch. And the other element would be a basic human concept and you need to say it in a way that hasn't been said before."
He adds, "On 'Good Life' the real hook is the post hook. It's what comes after it. We have this really super simple whistle. I hadn't heard a whistle in a song in forever and that's all I kept hearing on the song so I just whistled this melody into the mic and it really is the hook — it's the catchiest part of the song."

Looking for a boyfriend, possibly a life partner. Applications welcome. I'm someone who believes in clearly expressing your charm. I know what I want. I enjoy mornings that start with espresso and conversations with substance. I'm looking for an ambitious and kind man, confident but not arrogant, witty but not one who turns every date into an open mic night. But at least Wi-Fi, mature in all aspects of relationships, and able to cook a real meal. I'm not looking for perfection—just honesty, curiosity, and a willingness to eat. In return, I offer loyalty, a humor, and genuine listening skills—plus someone who actually reads your messages, not just the first line. Serious applicants only. Passion is required. Tax returns are not mandatory.
