"2U" is a song by French DJ and record producer David Guetta, featuring vocals from Canadian singer Justin Bieber. [1] [2] The song has EDM elements.

It was released on 9 June 2017 by What a Music, as the lead single from Guetta's seventh studio album, 7 (2018). [4]

Background

"2U" is the third collaborative single for Bieber in 2017 following " I'm the One" and " Despacito", both of which topped the US Billboard Hot 100 and other national charts. [5] [6]

A thirteen-second teaser was revealed by Victoria's Secret's models Elsa Hosk, Jasmine Tookes, Romee Strijd and Sara Sampaio. [7] [8] [9] The cover art was revealed by Guetta on 8 June 2017. [10] Guetta told MTV that the song was "just very romantic". [11]
