Kygo has uploaded a teaser of his new track with Ava Max. It samples Shakira's Whenever, Wherever

Was literally in the middle of making a thread for this 😂

Sounds like a bop! I am here for this collab *.*

Oops sorry Sam!

I think I'm here for this too, it's the classic Kygo sound enticing me in and it sounds incredibly catchy.

Rumours online that it's out next Friday but will wait for official confirmation

Posted by: JosephCarey 5th January 2024, 07:11 PM

I'm expecting nothing less than a 10/10 bop here x

Posted by: Jessie Where 5th January 2024, 07:12 PM

Not sure how I feel about that

Posted by: One_For_Sorrow 5th January 2024, 07:12 PM

Was not expecting this. Was intrigued by the sample, but it’s sounding good.

Posted by: Roba. 5th January 2024, 09:00 PM

Hmm doesn't sound too bad.

Not Sam being a flop Ava stan drama.gif

It sounds nice but it cut before the drop and now I’m salivating for more, I’m pretty sure people are gonna burn it at the stake anyway just for the sample

I'm expecting nothing more than a 0/10 nightmare here x

Posted by: Cow P 6th January 2024, 01:31 AM

At least it wasn't vocal chopped drops when it comes to Kygo remakes

In the other hand, the first Dean Lewis collab existed and sounded 10000x better (and original).

Jan 6 and we already have the worst song of the year locked biggrin.gif
this is called Whatever whatever and it's an interpolation rather than a sample

Posted by: lewistgreen 6th January 2024, 09:06 AM

Okay bbs biggrin.gif

Posted by: maxiking0708 6th January 2024, 09:16 AM

Doesn't sound bad, but we've been waiting a year for a sample?

No. We've been waiting a whole year for an interpolation. tongue.gif

Posted by: Juan Carlos 8th January 2024, 07:51 PM

It's called "Whatever".

Posted by: lewistgreen 10th January 2024, 08:17 PM

Confirmed it's out 19th January

Posted by: conorw 12th January 2024, 12:10 AM

cheeseblock.png iconic. Better live up to the sample. Most times Ava hasn’t dissapointed tho so I have high hopes!

Posted by: Brer 12th January 2024, 12:15 AM

Jay posted what are apparently the lyrics to the hook of this on Discord the other day and unless he was just winding me up I can already tell this song is going to make me want to leave this planet (as if that wasn't already the case just from the concept and the artist behind it)

He was not lying! Sounds... like another guilty pleasure.

Happy that it’s out next week. Hopefully it does well.

MEH (in Cloud Nine).

SAID EVERYONE WHO HEARD HER ALBUMS!!!

Her best songs are literally the ones that aren't samples lmaooo tearsmile.gif

Posted by: One_For_Sorrow 18th January 2024, 09:20 PM

I played this once this morning and it falls a bit flat for me. It’s a shame as a really liked the preview of it. I’ll give it a few more listens though.

Back to the 2015 laugh.gif


Posted by: lewistgreen 19th January 2024, 05:05 PM

Video has just premiered. It's exactly what I expected from the short clip we had before. I am fully here for Kygo continuing to use the tropical house vibe.

Ngl I'm obsessed with this kink.gif

What a BOP cheeseblock.png

Posted by: UltraCruelSummer 19th January 2024, 06:07 PM

10/10 bop can’t stop playing on repeat cheeseblock.png

Posted by: Danuary 20th January 2024, 04:50 PM

it’s objectively uninspired and belongs in 2016

subjectively I’ll probably end up loving it regardless lol

Posted by: neill2407 20th January 2024, 05:53 PM

This is quite underwhelming compared to her other stuff. I really liked the last album and was expecting something more original rather than a half baked cover.

Posted by: JosephChalamet 20th January 2024, 06:42 PM

I am all over this right now cheeseblock.png

Posted by: lewistgreen 22nd January 2024, 07:29 PM

#41 in the chart update. Kygo hasn't been seen in the UK Top 40 since his Tina Turner collab/remake in 2020.

Posted by: Jαsє 24th January 2024, 03:25 PM



Shakira's a fan at least!

Probably nothing to do with the money she'll probably be getting money off the back of the sample/ use of the song biggrin.gif


Posted by: Jessie Where 24th January 2024, 04:16 PM

Everything about this is just terrible.

I could really do without this sound coming back as well.

Posted by: lewistgreen 26th January 2024, 11:05 PM

#39 in the chart today! Really good for its first week

Posted by: Roba. 26th January 2024, 11:09 PM

Weakest effort Ava has done yet for me sadly and I'm usually obsessed with most of her dancey tracks too sad.gif although I am still happy it's outpeaked that pointless Tina Turner remake he did but hope it doesn't get too much further (but it will of course lol).

Posted by: One_For_Sorrow 27th January 2024, 12:39 AM

Great start in its first week. I wonder if it’ll end up cracking the top 20.

The Tina Turner remix reached #31 so got a little further to go.

Climbs to #27 this week!

Posted by: TheSnake 2nd February 2024, 07:05 PM

I disliked tropical house but for some reason I like this.

Posted by: pippa 3rd February 2024, 08:22 PM

It is lovely to see this continuing to climb.

Posted by: Dobbo 19th February 2024, 03:34 PM

Having heard this a few times now I'm slowly warming to it. I get the criticisms but for me this is much more inspired than his Higher Love/What's Love efforts which were literally straight cover versions. This song at least has original lyrics and merely interpolates the Shakira melody. At the very least it's easily the best Ava has sounded on a song in a few years.

Posted by: Brer 19th February 2024, 04:27 PM

I think changing the lyrics (but only slightly) actually makes it worse than being a straight cover honestly.

Posted by: Dobbo 19th February 2024, 04:41 PM

Fair enough, understand that take as well.

Posted by: lewistgreen 1st March 2024, 05:00 PM

Now a Top 20 single as it's up to #17 this week

Posted by: neill2407 1st March 2024, 11:56 PM

This has done a lot better than I expected but it’s probably my least favourite single to date sadly.

Posted by: Padamic Tension 24th March 2024, 03:41 PM

Unpopular opinion but I'm loving this right now.
