"In the Name of Love" is a song recorded by Dutch DJ and record producer Martin Garrix and American singer Bebe Rexha. The song was produced by Garrix, Matt Rad, Steve James and Simon Says. [1] It was released on iTunes and streaming services after he premiered the song at Ultra Music Festival 2016. A remix EP was released on 11 November 2016, consisting of three remixes featuring DallasK, The Him and Snavs. [2]

Background and composition

"In the Name of Love" is a future bass song, which contains "a combination of piano, bass, and guitar strums strums [which] provide percussion throughout demure verses". [3]

Garrix and Rexha used FaceTime when she was recording the song as he was not in the studio initially. The two later gathered together to finish it. [4]

Garrix debuted the song by playing it on his set in March 2016 at the Ultra Music Festival 2016. [5] He announced the release of the song on 24 July 2016 via his social media accounts and a Tomorrowland 2016 interview. [6] In an interview, he said the "album is finished" and this song would appear as the first single from his upcoming album on which he said he was working. [7] It was the first track released since his deal with Sony Music which would also be distributed by the latter. [8]

When asked why he chose Bebe Rexha for the collaboration, Garrix said, "First of all, I love to hear her voice. I met her earlier this year in LA. She played me some of her demos and just straight away after the first song, I fell in love with her voice because it's so unique it's so different. The team and I were brainstorming and then Bebe ended up doing it, with a lot of sending back and forth, lots of shaping and polishing the song and then we finally came up with the version how the world knows it right now." [9]

Critical reception

Kat Bein of Billboard wrote that the song shows Garrix's artistic growth, "[it's] a far cry from the hard-hitting, stomp-ready beat of his breakthrough", and called the song "a charming track, as delicate as it is clean. It's Garrix sharing his softer side." [3] Idolator's Rachel Sonis felt the song sounded "like the summer anthem we’ve been waiting for all along". [10]

Music video

The official music video was released on Apple Music [11] on 9 August 2016 and on YouTube [12] on 23 August 2016. It was directed by Emil Nava. [13] The video opens with Rexha wearing a red dress and red pvc thigh high boots by a swimming pool on a springboard outside a mansion, surrounded by rushes of smoke, storm clouds and water explosions just after Garrix comes into the scene by walking towards a springboard standing just few feet away from her. He holds Rexha as they sink beneath the surface of water. [14] The video has over 700 million views as of July 2022.
