Diplo drops “Receipts” with Mau P & Gunna ahead of announcing headline show at Nashville’s The Office

Not to brag, but I’ve been saying for years now that it’s inevitable for dance music and hip-hop to cross over. I’m so excited to see the rise of genre-defying collaborations such as this one.

Diplo and Mau P have teamed up with unveiling their new single, “Receipts,” which features acclaimed rapper Gunna. This song allows for each artist to “meet in the middle” sonically, while delivering a sound that belongs in it’s own unique category.

Born through several prep sessions ahead of their iconic b2b set at Coachella’s newest dance stage, Quasar, this release serves as a massive endorsement from Diplo as Mau continues to break-through in the American dance scene. The pair teased the collaboration during their four-hour performance, which was actually the first time they met in person as well. Since then, the track has become a staple in both artists’ sets through world-wide tours.

“‘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.” – Mau P

Over the course of a 20-year career that began with his now-legendary Philly club night Hollertronix, Diplo has collaborated with the world’s biggest stars and toured the world over. Born in Mississippi and raised in Florida, he and his era-defining labels Mad Decent and Higher Ground continue to champion genres and artists from around the world, and further ventures include a publishing company and various book, film and TV projects. The now thirteen-time Grammy nominee is also a member of the iconic Major Lazer, one third of LSD—the psychedelic supergroup with Sia and Labrinth whose debut album has been streamed over 3 billion times—and half of Silk City with Mark Ronson—whose Platinum-certified, Grammy-winning “Electricity” with Dua Lipa topped charts worldwide. His latest releases include a string of well-received Higher Ground singles, last year’s Diplo Present Thomas Wesley: Chapter 2—Swamp Savant, his second album as country persona Thomas Wesley, and 2022’s Diplo, his first full length album of electronic music in 18 years.

As if this news wasn’t ground-breaking enough, Full Circle Presents announced TODAY that Diplo will be performing at one of Nashville’s favorite underground venues, The Office, next month. This news completely shook the Nashville dance community, as Diplo is definitely the biggest artist to perform there thus far. Be sure to grab your tickets while you can to hear this banger played out live, this is a show that will sell out quick.
