Revealed by a reliable source that it features Dua Lipa and Young Thug.

Probably not the best time to have Young Thug feature on the lead to your new album.

Probably not the best time to have Young Thug feature on the lead to your new album. That's correct. It's very unfortunate due to his recent events, but it seems that everything is already planned (re: music video and, possibly, promotion), so I guess this is the reason why Adam keeps teasing that something is coming soon. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Between Young Thug's current legal entanglement, the DaBaby fiasco last year, and the song with Megan underperforming expectations, maybe Dua should just stay away from hip-hop collaborators altogether.
But regardless of my cynical thinking, I'm looking forward to this. Young Thug showed up on Heatstroke, one of Calvin's best songs to date, so I hope he delivers again here.

In retrospect, his previous album was possibly ahead of the times in terms of the funk sounding revival we have seen lately. I'm looking forward to this!

An impact date at Hot AC has been revealed, so it's safe to say that this will be pushed to Pop too.

this is out there in its full glory. it's 3 mins 34 seconds, though the last 15 is an outro.
I like it. it's more of a "Heatstroke" or "Rollin" than a "One Kiss" or "Slide," if that makes sense. I love all 4 of those so it's a win for me either way at the end of the day.
I wonder how Young Thug's involvement will impact this—do people even care about that? I haven't heard much about that whole situation. he definitely elevates the song here and is an integral part of it, so I understand why they wouldn't want to leave him out at the last minute.

What did Young Thug do?
I'm assuming 99% of people don't know (like me) and/or won't care if they do.

What did Young Thug do? I'm assuming 99% of people don't know (like me) and/or won't care if they do. well, even if people don’t necessarily know what happened, he won’t be able to promote the track or anything either. Young Thug and Gunna (and 20+ more associated people) were arrested earlier this month and charged with a 56-count gang-related indictment, plus 7 additional felonies for Young Thug. charges include attempted murder, conspiracy, theft and possession of illegal firearms & illegal substances. they’re both still in jail, afaik. Gunna’s bond request was denied. not sure what this all means for Young Thug and Gunna, which also means it’s unclear how things will play out for this song (which really isn’t Young Thug’s priority right now). I tried very hard not to come off insensitive here, it’s difficult to discuss incarceration and crime in this context without sounding like a prick. know that that’s not my intention, please.

The hook is alright... The production is too dull and goes nowhere. It feels more like a demo. Young Thug was absolutely not needed here.

So Young Thug was as a writer as well, it was difficult to get rid of him and as this project was long time in works, the song might have been completed quite awhile. And as about the rappers nowadays, they are mostly one day butterflies - in the top of the sky today, long forgotten tomorroa as most of them have no substance and the music inf´dustry supports that kind of business. Young Thug has been around for a while though, still Calvin does not need those rappers to make funk music.

LOL. Of course, Young Thug was a writer. He isn't Drake. He writes his own raps.
Meanwhile, I love seeing my girl Jessie Reyez collect more coins. I didn't know she wrote One Kiss until she threw a little shade during Coachella before playing it during her set. Looking forward to hearing this.
