In 2011 David Guetta released his 5th studio album ‘Nothing but the Beat’ which was packed with huge hits that would rocket into the charts including the iconic ‘Titanium.’ As if the album couldn’t get any better, the following year Guetta would expand the album adding 6 extra tracks with the lead single being another absolute classic, ‘She Wolf (Falling To Pieces)’.
Sia would provide the vocals on this track following on from also singing on ‘Titanium’ and she once again gave an incredible, powerful performance that created a lot of the emotion within the verses while Guetta’s classic club energy takes over for the choruses. This meshing of talents would be a great success with ‘She Wolf’ going to no. 1 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs chart and going on to rack up over 300 million Spotify streams.
‘Nothing but the Beat’ also featured collaborations from the likes of Nicki Minaj, Snoop Dogg, Flo Rida, Chris Brown and several other huge names from many different genres of music. The album received a Grammy nomination for ‘Best Dance/Electronica Album’ but more importantly would act as one of the catalysts for bringing EDM into the mainstream and kicking off a fantastic era for electronic music. David Guetta is widely considered to be one of the main reasons for EDM’s rise in popularity coming into the early 2010s and he has continued to plough his way into the charts since.
‘She Wolf’ is one of the many amazing tracks that David Guetta has created where he managed to walk the line of creating a pop hit without losing his epic club sound. With the fantastic songs they managed to create together, do you think we’ll see another collaboration between David Guetta and Sia soon?
