Monica Schipper/Getty ImagesThink what you want about Justin Bieber, but he knows how to pump out good music—especially when Diplo and Skrillex are collaborating with him!
The EDM musician and the DJ surprised fans when they dropped "Where Are You Now" as part of their debut LP, Jack Ü, released Friday. Jack Ü is the name the duo gave themselves.
They initially teased fans with "Take Ü There," which featured vocals from Kiesza combined with a remix of the song with Missy Elliot. (Here is our official welcome back to Missy moment).
Serious Beliebers, however, might recognize the title of this latest release because the "Never Say Never" singer already has a song called "Where Are You Now." Don't be confused by that, though, as this song has completely different lyrics and sound. The original was released as a bonus track on Bieber's My World 2.0 album back in 2010 when he had a much higher voice and was just a teenager!
The soon-to-be 21-year-old announced the new track late Thursday night right before it dropped. Bieber tweeted, "Wrote a song. #JackU @Skrillex @diplo #WhereAreÜNow."
As if the newly formed duo between Skrillex and Diplo weren't enough, they've also embarked on an epic 24-hour performance that could be streamed online. Unfortunately, cops broke up the music fest 18 hours in, according to a tweet from Diplo. Although they had to cut their rave short, they can all rest assured that the Bieber-inclusive song has already received the seal of approval from some fans.
"This @justinbieber @diplo @Skrillex joint is actually lovely as f--k and bangs at the same time," tweeted one user, as retweeted by Diplo.
