The song confidently builds up to a breaking point, then explodes with chopped vocals and drums in an undeniably catchy chorus. Check out more from VRG on Soundcloud and stream this one below.

Jauz & Kiiara – Diamonds
Ignore the hate, the new Jauz album is fire. The Wise and The Wicked is an ambitious 23 songs long, and while they’re not all winners, the renowned EDM producer delivers a ferocious album full of bangers.
