MUMBAI: After teaming up with Era Istrefi on the hugely popular, Selfish in February, which has now amassed over 7.5 million streams on Spotify, and more recently releasing their Mortal Kombat soundtrack single, You’re Next (Mortal Kombat Anthem) earlier in the month to great acclaim, Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike show no sign of letting up with the high-profile collaborations, this time drafting in megastar Paris Hilton for vocals on the cheeky, Best Friend’s Ass.
Paris Hilton, a name who needs no introduction, gained fame as the heiress of the Hilton family and became a socialite adored by fans the world over, riding the wave as one of the earliest influencers through cult show, The Simple Life, and more recently opened up to the world about the impact of living in the limelight on smash Netflix documentary, The American Meme. Paris has also made a name DJ’ing herself, with standout sets at festivals such as Burning Man as well as holding down a residency in Ibiza at Amnesia, where she hosted her ‘Foam & Diamonds’ party for five consecutive years.
Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike consistently strive to reach new heights through every step of their career, and having worked with pioneering artists recently such as Gucci Mane and hip-hop star Wiz Khalifa on the hugely successful When I Grow Up, the latest collaboration with Paris Hilton, a fashionista whose face has adorned the front pages of every major magazine on the planet, is another feather in the cap of Belgium’s favourite brothers, who continue to go from strength to strength and break the barriers of possibility within dance music. Not content with maintaining their position at the top of dance music’s elite, highlighted by them recently being awarded MTV’s ‘Best Belgian Act’, Dimitri Vegas and Like Mike persist with searching out new avenues and exploring different methods to channel their innate creativity, and this collaboration is testament to that and to their ability to work with a diverse range of styles within their trademark sound.
