Ready for some new Selena Gomez music? The ‘Rare’ singer helped Trevor Daniel bring some new ‘life’ to a song of his, and the pair made the epic debut with a video shot via IG live!

Never accuse Selena Gomez of being a slacker. 2020 has seen her release an album, raise funds for both COVID-19 relief, lend her platform to Black leaders to raise awareness of systemic racism, start a cooking show, — and she happened to find time to jump on a remix of Trevor Daniel’s “Past Life.” The song, released on June 26, sees Sel sing “Last night was the last night of my past life/Got me here like you can never figure me out/Last night was the last time, was the last time.” The pair also made the debut with an epic lyric video, shot by Instagram live, with their friends — including Sel’s manager Aleen Keshishian and songwriter Finneas — typing out the lyrics in the comments.
