DJ Snake has joined forces with pop superstar
Selena Gomez for a bilingual and breathtaking new single called "Selfish Love." Accompanied by a video from award-winning filmmaker Rodrigo Saavedra, "
Selfish Love" is the second collaboration between the French DJ/producer and Gomez, who appeared on his four-times-platinum, chart-topping, record-breaking smash hit "
Taki Taki" in 2018.
"With the whole world being separated from each other I kept looking and working only on pure good vibes. I wanted to make music for the world and mix all my favorite influences of afro beat, latin music, something that felt grounded and organic.
Selena and I had been talking and after "
Taki Taki" we had to give the world another round with fresh summer vibes. Something that made it feel like summer the first time you heard it. "
Selfish Love" came very naturally for us and I think it's the perfect evolution for our history together." -
