Neneh Cherry is takin’ it back to 1988 with the help of a fellow Swedish queen. On Thursday, Cherry dropped a vibey, reimagined version of her hit “Buffalo Stance” featuring Robyn on vocals and Mapei on its rap verse.
“I love that I could write an essay with all the things I could say about Robyn and I love that she leaves me speechless at the same time,” Cherry said on social media. “Her talent is soulful because she leads with her heart and spirit, she is absolutely there, ever-present with...

Dua Lipa performed a nightclub-primed version of her Silk City collaboration, “Electricity,” on Wednesday’s Jimmy Kimmel Live. The singer bounced gleefully around a fog-lined stage, belting house-pop hooks as bright lights flickered. A live band – including a bassist, keyboardist, drummer and two dancing back-up singers – accompanied her the song.
This traditional late-night take on “Electricity” follows Lipa’s after-midnight prank rendition from Tuesday’s episode, in which the singer woke up Kimmel with the song by hopping on his bed and brandishing a taser. She also played the track...

Mark Ronson and Diplo’s new project Silk City team with Dua Lipa to bring a burst of light to a blackout in the video for their new song, “Electricity.”
The Bradley and Pablo-directed clip is set in New York City during the sweltering 2003 blackout, and it opens with Dua Lipa singing and dancing to the infectious dance cut alone in a loft. The pop star’s energy eventually creates a beacon of light that attracts a horde of people, who soon pack the poorly lit apartment for a delirious rave.

Silk City, the new project from Diplo and Mark Ronson, recruited rappers Desiigner and budding D.C. Mc GoldLink for their new dance song. “Loud” maintains a steady groove, over which Diplo and Ronson layer an array of synths that pulse, throb, skitter and soar. The track’s blend of classic house and contemporary pop and hip-hop provides the perfect space for Desiigner to bark the club-ready hook.
GoldLink, meanwhile, delivers two verses packed with punchlines like, “I have to say, since Steez passed away/ Most of these rappers don...
