"
Heartless" is the second of several forthcoming collaborations due to appear on Diplo's country EP due out this later this year, following "
So Long" featuring Cam.
Diplo's recent splash into country music has been lauded by Rolling Stone as "impressively graceful," while the Washington Post praises "
So Long" as "the century's first great EDM-country song."
