Two-time Grammy-nominated DJ and Producer Steve Aoki releases new single ‘Waste It On Me’ featuring BTS along with the tracklist for his highly anticipated album Neon Future III, set to release next month on Friday, November 9th via Ultra Music/Dim Mak.
The track is a dynamic anthem for young restless love, explaining how we feel when we find someone we want to pursue and spend all our free time with, no matter the circumstance. The chorus “waste it on me” is an echo to that feeling of desire we have when we want a special person to invest their limited time in pursuing us, hoping it’s mutual.
“I’m so psyched to share this collaboration with one of the most exciting and inspiring group of guys I’ve met in the past few years,” said Aoki. “It’s an absolute honor to work with them once again on ‘Waste It On Me.’ I can’t wait for my fans to hear what’s in store for them next on this third installment of Neon Future.”
BTS and Steve began their musical relationship back in 2017, when Steve remixed BTS’s hit song, “MIC Drop” with Grammy-nominated rapper Desiigner taking the hit to #1 on the Billboard US World Digital Chart in 2017-2018, over 127 million streams on Spotify, the highest-charting song by a K-pop group in US history, and the first to go certified Gold. BTS is no stranger to success, not only are the superstars on a completely sold-out arena and stadium world tour, they are also being honoured by the Korean government for spreading Korean culture, and they recently spoke at the United Nations. Vulture calls them “the biggest boy band in the world with the most devoted fandom” and their message of love and positivity is making waves everywhere, especially in New York, with their noteworthy Citi Field performance that lit up the stadium, selling out 40,000 tickets in a matter of minutes. BTS will also be debuting a movie on the big screen with a “B.T.S.” experience of the group, called Burn the Stage: the Movie, which is set for a limited time release on 15th November. The film will feature an intimate following of the superstars’ rise to fame and their incredible The Wings Tour 2017 BTS Live Trilogy Episode III, which shifted 550,000 tickets across 40 concerts.
This new track follows Aoki’s recent releases of “Jaleo” with Nicky Jam, “Hoovela” with Croatian DJ/producer TWIIG and Aoki’s pop anthem, “Be Somebody” featuring Multi-Platinum vocalist Kiiara and Multi-Platinum DJ & producer Nicky Romero, that had its premiere performance on The TODAY Show.
