Beautiful Things has resonated with audiences more than once since the young pop sensation launched his smash hit last year, whether you’ve deliberately sought it out or simply caught it on the radio. Beautiful Things surged in popularity across various platforms, achieving 2.37 billion streams on Spotify and 757 million views on YouTube at the time of writing. It’s no surprise that Google chose to collaborate with the artist in Google Maps, providing users with a tailored navigation experience infused with Boone-inspired content.
The collaboration between Google Maps and Boone linked to the artist’s American Heart World Tour mirrors similar endeavors from Google that have seen their navigation application join forces with other musicians. Just a few weeks ago, Google Maps users who are fans of BlackPink had the chance to personalize their navigation experience in anticipation of the band’s Deadline World Tour. Subsequently, a partnership with indie pop group The Marias emerged.
