Today, Diplo and international house sensation Mau P have delivered a collaborative new single, ‘Receipts,’ featuring acclaimed rapper Gunna. The genre-defying track harnesses the essence of each artist’s individual style, delivering a new sound uniquely in a category of its own. The result of several sessions preparing for their b2b set at Coachella earlier this year, ‘Receipts’ signaled the onset of an authentic personal and creative partnership for Diplo and Mau P. The pair first unleashed the track during the four-hour performance, marking not only Mau P’s Coachella debut and the duo’s first b2b but also the first time the collaborators met in person. ‘Receipts’ has since become a fixture in both artists’ individual sets around the world.
“‘Receipts’ came to life as Wes and I were preparing for our b2b Coachella set which was also my debut performance at the festival. We had been talking for hours about music and our various influences, after which Wes asked me the obvious question – ‘Should we try to create a song together that we can play at Coachella?’ He had recently done a session with Gunna and gave me an acapella to mess around with. One night during Miami Music Week, I came home from a show feeling pretty hyped up, opened my laptop and landed on the first version of this track. From there, Wes and I went back and forth to nail it, and eventually premiered ‘Receipts’ at Coachella.”
