Canadian singer-songwriter Ruth Berhe, sometimes known as Ruth B, is a potential talent. When this newbie surprised the music industry with her smash hit track “Lost Boy,” the industry embraced her with open arms. Her debut album, “Safe Haven,” exceeded all expectations and received glowing reviews, earning her the designation “one to watch” in Rolling Stone. The teenage performer received high praise from industry insiders for writing every song on the CD by herself. The last two years of Ruth’s high school career and the years leading up to the release of her debut album, according to Ruth, served as inspiration for all of the tracks. She began singing on Vine and won a Juno Award and a BMI Pop Award for the song “Lost Boy,” which went viral. Columbia, a major company, noticed her fame on Vine and other social media platforms and signed her in 2015. In November 2015, she released ‘The Intro,’ a four-song EP that took two days to record. The following year, she collaborated with Grammy-winning producer Joel Little to create her debut full-length album, “Safe Haven.”
The career of Ruth Berhe
In May 2013, Ruth Berhe uploaded her first video to Vine. After receiving great feedback, she continued to create brief singing videos featuring versions of well-known songs, which helped her build a strong fan base. She shared a Vine in November of the following year in which she sang a line that was influenced by the television show “Once Upon a Time.” Ruth was startled by the video’s overwhelmingly positive reception, which received roughly 84,000 likes in just one week. Encouraged by her fans, she created the whole song “Lost Boy.” She uploaded it to YouTube in January 2015 and made it available on iTunes in February after it gained popularity on Vine.
She was discovered by record labels as her following on Vine, YouTube, and other social media sites grew, and she ultimately signed with Columbia Records in July 2015.

On her debut full-length album, she began working with New Zealand producer Joel Little in 2016. She had several songs ready before the recording of the album began because she had been creating songs for a very long period.

Music Canada awarded the album a gold certification. The album also contained “Lost Boy” and “Superficial Love,” two tracks from “The Intro.”
