This. Is. Not. A. Drill. Dua Lipa and Silk City, ie Diplo and Mark Ronson, just dropped their brand new track and music video for 'Electricity' that they've been teasing all week.

Silk City so far has been all about dance music homages, and we're getting some seriously sweaty 90s house vibes from this hot new track.

View the lyrics

Falling into you, baby
Even electricity can't compare to what I feel
When I'm with you
Ooh, baby
Giving up my ghost for you
And now I'm see-through

You give me a feeling, feeling so strong
I know you've been treating, treating yourself wrong
So let me care for you
Ooh, baby
I'ma love you differently
I'll give you electricity
Give it to you

And even if I could
I wouldn't turn on you
And I would stop the world for you, you know
I wanted to let you know, I'll never let this feeling go
This love has no ceiling, I cannot deny
Even if I could
I wouldn't turn on you
And I would stop the world for you and I
I want to let you know
I'll never let this feeling go
This love has no ceiling, I cannot deny

All I see is you, lately
Wide awake and in my dreams
I see your face so vividly
I don't know what I'd do
Ooh, baby
If you only saw a friend in me
I'd be bittersweet

You give me a feeling, feeling so strong
I know you've been treating, treating yourself wrong
So let me care for you
Ooh, baby
I'ma love you differently
I'll give you electricity
Give it to you

And even if I could
I wouldn't turn on you
And I would stop the world for you, you know
I wanted to let you know
I'll never let this feeling go
This love has no ceiling, I cannot deny
Even if I could
I wouldn't turn on you
And I would stop the world for you and I
I want to let you know
I'll never let this feeling go
This love has no ceiling, I cannot deny

I feel electric, baby
So electric, baby
Wanna let you know, let you know, ooh
I think I'm ready, baby
I think I'm ready, now
Electricity, I'm falling in to you
I feel electric, baby
(I want it, I need it)
So electric, baby
(This current between us)
Wanna let you know, let you know
(This flow, this feeling tonight)
I think I'm ready, baby
(I want it, I need it)
I think I'm ready, now
(This current between us)
Electricity, I'm falling in to you
(This flow, this feeling tonight)

And even if I could
I wouldn't turn on you
And I would stop the world for you, you know
I want to let you know
I'll never let this feeling go
This love has no ceiling, I cannot deny
Even if I could
I wouldn't turn on you
And I would stop the world for you and I
I want to let you know
I'll never let this feeling go
This love has no ceiling, I cannot deny

I feel electric, baby
So electric, baby
Wanna let you know, let you know
(I want it, I need it)
I think I'm ready, baby
(This current between us)
I think I'm ready, now
(This flow, this feeling)
Electricity (Woohoo)
I feel electric, baby
So electric, baby
Wanna let you know, let you know
I think I'm ready, baby
I think I'm ready, now
Electricity

The music video sees Dua in New York, rocking bleach-blonde hair and dancing around her apartment with some iconic choreography that matches the 90s house vibes oh so well.

The solo dancing steadily evolves into a whole loft party that we so wish we could have attended. Diplo and Mark Ronson make cameos in the video too! They're in the elevator in the same New York building as Dua’s party when the electricity goes out and they're trapped!

This is another of the bop-worthy singles they’ve been putting out under the Silk City moniker. The project seems to see them taking inspiration from distinct eras of dance music, with ‘Electricity’ in particular having strong 90s house influences.

You can watch the steamy music video for yourself right here, above!

About the project, Diplo has said:

"Silk City is an homage to some of the greatest dance music cities; Chicago, London, Paris, Detroit […] Mark Ronson and I met as DJs 20 years ago, and our paths have taken us everywhere since. It is great to get back together and make music”

Also released under the name is the infectiously catchy bop ‘Only Can Get Better’, and ‘Loud’ featuring Goldlink and Desiigner.

In the meantime – Dua Lipa just announced 3 MORE brand-new tracks that are coming with the Super Deluxe version of her debut album Dua Lipa.
