Miles Music Kid, 8-Year-Old Prodigy, Releases First Single ‘You Can Be a Hero’: Listen

Miles Bonham, the 8-year-old Internet sensation known as Miles Music Kid, has released his first official single, “You Can Be a Hero,” through Republic Records: Kids & Family and Pocket.watch on Friday (Aug. 9). The song will be featured on the forthcoming soundtrack to Ryan’s World the Movie: Titan Universe Adventure.

Miles Music Kid has earned 2.7 million Instagram followers and 1.2 million TikTok followers by demonstrating a highly advanced understanding of musical composition and production. At 8 years old, Bonham fully wrote and produced “You Can Be a Hero,” playing all of the instruments on the recording himself.

“As soon as I saw the movie, I knew I needed to make a banger that would make not just kids, but everybody want to dance and inspire them to know that anyone can be a hero,” the young star says in a statement.

Ryan’s World the Movie: Titan Universe Adventure will receive a theatrical release next Friday (Aug. 16) as a big-screen adaptation of the popular YouTube channel starring Ryan Kaji and his family.

“We’re thrilled to have Miles Music Kid as part of the Ryan’s World the Movie: Titan Universe Adventure soundtrack,” says Chris M. Williams, founder and CEO of Pocket.watch, the digital media studio that helped launch Ryan’s World. “It’s inspiring to see another young creative talent shine and bring their unique voice to this creator-driven film.” 

Bree Bowles, Republic Records: Kids & Family senior VP, adds, ”I have been watching Miles closely for years now, in awe of his exceptional talent well beyond his years. The Ryan’s World project presented the perfect opportunity to collaborate and my mind has been blown with what he has accomplished. Miles is the future.”

Along with “You Can Be a Hero” and original Ryan’s World music, the film soundtrack also features Pentatonix’s cover of Imagine Dragons’ “Thunder,” as well as Qai Qai, MusicClubKIds! and Toys and Colors. The soundtrack will also be released next Friday alongside the film.
