Sony Music - contemporaneous Electricity release-year confirmation
The November 2018 label announcement explicitly says Ronson and Diplo, as Silk City, released Electricity with Dua Lipa earlier that year. This resolves the distributor's inherited 2017 song field and identifies the collaboration; promotional chart claims are not adopted. | Reviewed 2026-10-17

About Dua Lipa
Dua Lipa is a London singer and songwriter whose early singles led to her self-titled debut album in 2017. Her lower vocal register sits prominently in the rhythmic pop of New Rules and IDGAF. Future Nostalgia places that voice within bass-led disco and dance arrangements, while Radical Optimism extends the electronic palette. Collaborations with Calvin Harris, Elton John and Silk City provide other settings without replacing the distinct identity of her solo recordings.
