Described as a “powerhouse anthem,” the track was produced by Max Martin, Savan Kotecha and Ilya — the same team behind Ariana’s hit “Problem.”

Released to iTunes on July 29th via Republic Records, the song will serve as the lead single from Jessie J.’s upcoming third studio album, which currently has no official release date.

It will also appear on Ariana Grande’s upcoming studio album, My Everything , as a deluxe edition track.

After writing songs for artists such as Chris Brown and Miley Cyrus in 2008, Jessie J came to prominence following the release of her debut single, Do It Like a Dude , which peaked at #2 on the UK Singles Charts.

She has since released two studio albums, including last year’s Alive , and one EP. As of April 2012, Jessie J had sold over 11 million singles and 2.5 million albums, worldwide.
