Superstar DJ David Guetta has dropped his new album '7' and it includes some MAJOR collaborations. Not only does it include his collabs already released this year, 'Flames' with Sia and 'Don't Leave Me Alone' with Anne-Marie, it also include future hits with the likes of Bebe Rexha, J Balvin, Jason Derulo, Nicki Minaj and many more!
The 'Play Hard' DJ took to Instagram with a series of videos creating a large composite image of the album artwork, with the French DJ in front of a shiny blue car.
Each of the videos includes a short clip of some of his new music ending with a full list of those he has collaborated with on the album.
Over the years David Guetta has many successful hits, mostly collaborations, from his first Number 1 in 2009, 'When Love Takes Over' featuring Kelly Rowland, to his Top 5 single featuring Justin Bieber, '2U', and most recently, his fantastic collaborations with Australian singer Sia, 'Flames' and 'Don't Leave Me Alone' with Anne-Marie.

We're currently playing David and Anne-Marie's hit 'Don't Leave Me Alone' and last month the pair dropped their futurist music video which featured Anne-Marie wearing a VR headset, transporting her into another world!
This is the first time that David Guetta and Anne-Marie have teamed up, however Anne-Marie herself is no stranger to collaborating with DJs, having previously collaborated with Marshmello on 'FRIENDS'.
Earlier this year we caught up with Anne-Marie on the BRITs red carpet. The 'FRIENDS' singer joined Ed Sheeran on tour and told us what it was like touring with the mega star.
You can hear hits from all of these artists on Downtown Radio.
