Mahalia collaborates with JoJo on new single 'Cheat'

With her highly-anticipated new album landing next month, Mahalia has now dropped the next cut to be lifted from her forthcoming full-length.

The new single 'Cheat' sees her team up with JoJo for the release, and follows on from the previously shared lead track 'Terms And Conditions' in previewing her sophomore LP 'IRL', which is out on the 14th July.

Speaking about the new collaboration, Mahalia said, "I can’t quite believe this one is real. I have been a fan of JoJo for as long as I can remember so having her on this record really is a dream come true for me. I love watching people come together through hardship and everything about this song represents that. For me, it is a song about strength, power and letting go."

While JoJo added, “I loved teaming up with Mahalia on this fully infectious bop. Not only can I not get the melodies out of my head… but I’ve BEEN THERE.. and it feels good to be singing with my friend about this very real part of growing up: Realizing that some boys are for the streets and will never change.”
