Meghan Trainoris celebrating a decade of “All About That Bass,” but she’s feeling timeless.
On Thursday, the Grammy winner treated fans to her new single “Been Like This” withT-Painas well as the announcement of her upcoming albumTimeless, which she’ll be supporting with a massive headlining tour — her first in seven years — later in 2024.
“I cannot believe it has been 10 years since this all started,” reflected Trainor, 30, in a statement ahead of the 10th anniversary of her debut hit, which reached No. 1 on theBillboardHot 100, in June.

“I have never been more grateful for this life that my incredible Megatronz have gifted me with,” added the star, who shares sonsRiley, 3, andBarry, born in July 2023, with husbandDaryl Sabara. “This new album and tour are all for them and my beautiful family.”
Timelessis set for a June 14 release via Epic Records. The album’s first single, “Been Like This” with T-Pain, dropped Thursday — after the rapper spent quite a bit of time trying to make a collaboration with Trainor come to fruition.
“I worked with Meghan’s husband and manager for MONTHS trying to surprise her for her birthday,” says T-Pain, 39, of the “Me Too” singer, whose birthday is December 22. “She’s been a fan of mine for a long time and the feeling is definitely mutual.”
The “Buy U a Drank (Shawty Snappin')” performer continued, “I think we came together in a way that’s a perfect mesh of styles that will get everybody ready for us to work together again real soon. T-Pain and M-Train, the collab you never knew you wanted but needed.”
Kicking off Sept. 4 at the Riverbend Music Center in Cincinnati, the tour will make stops in cities including Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, New York City, Toronto, Phoenix and more before wrapping Oct. 19 at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, California.
