Jax Jones and Bebe Rexha team up for brand new collaboration 'Harder'
It's going to be a summer banger!
Last updated 16th Jul 2019
It seems as though charts-favourite Jax Jones can do no musical wrong at the moment. Every single he's released has been a certified banger, with singles 'You Don't Know Me', 'Breathe', 'Play' and 'All Day And Night' all breaking into the Top 10 in the UK charts.
As those singles all feature another artist on the vocals - Raye, Ina Wroldsen, Years & Years and Martin Solveig and Madison Beer respectively - it's no surprise that Jax, whose real name is Timucin Fabian Kwong Wah Aluo, is continuing the collaboration trend with his newest single.
The 31-year-old Londoner, who rose to fame in 2014 after featuring on Duke Dumont's 'I Got U', is set to release a brand new single tomorrow (12th July) starring Bebe Rexha, best known for her singles 'Last Hurrah' and 'In The Name Of Love'.
Taking to Twitter, Jax announced the collaboration by sharing one of his signature food item labels featuring a cartoon version of himself and Bebe, revealing the single's release date.
This comes after he shared a sneak peek of the song on Twitter earlier in the week, sharing a video of himself listening to the song and asking fans if they could guess who was singing on the track.
