The song brings together two global pop stars
Maroon 5 has linked up with world renowned rapper, singer, dancer, actor, and style icon Lisa to debut an infectious new single “Priceless,” out now via 222/Interscope Records.
The song also notably marks the first time Maroon 5 has collaborated with a K-pop artist. The band also premieres a new music video. Directed by Aerin Moreno (Tate McRae, Tyla), the playful and stylish clip was shot in downtown Los Angeles on 35mm film and visually gives a nod to the film Mr. & Mrs. Smith.
“Priceless” is a prelude into Maroon 5’s upcoming eighth studio album, of which details will be formally announced soon. On the album, the band are returning to their roots with their new music while subtly expanding their sound.
“It’s just a guitar-based song which we haven’t really done in so long. It happened first for us while we were recording the album. I think it’s just the purest and we are so happy to have Lisa on it,” frontman Adam Levine says. “The guitar intro is literally me playing into an audio message on my iPhone with an unplugged guitar. I actually got a little emotional recording ‘cause it was sort of reconnecting to our roots, which a lot of our fans have been saying ‘Hey, we want to hear that sound again.’ It’s been like over 20 years so I think it’s time for that to return.”
In addition to their new music, Maroon 5 is also preparing to announce an upcoming world tour. The US dates follow an extended residency at Las Vegas’ Dolby Live at Park MGM, which has now reached 40 total performances.
