Young Thug and Dua Lipa have joined Calvin Harris for a new song. It’s called “Potion.” Below, watch the Emil Nava–directed music video for the new single.
“Potion” is the first single from Harris’ forthcoming album Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 2, which, according to a press release, is due out this summer. It also marks the first new single to feature Young Thug since the rapper was indicted on racketeering charges, as well as drug and gun possession charges earlier this month.
Harris spoke of his upcoming LP in a new interview with Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1. “I wanted the original essence and I want the layers and the grit and the dirt and I don’t want everything to be mixed perfectly,” he told Lowe. “I want things to be too loud and I want things to be like, you know, I want things to be like Sly and the Family Stone when it’s just mixed on the fly.”
Harris previously worked with Dua Lipa on “One Kiss” and with Young Thug on “Heatstroke.” Since sharing Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 1 in 2017, Harris has released a number of singles under his Love Regenerator alias, including January 2022’s “Lonely.”
