The vocalists for May’s lead album single, “Potion,” Dua Lipa and Young Thug, as well as Justin Timberlake, Snoop Dogg, Halsey, Tinashe, Normani, Shenseea, British rapper Stefflon Don, Chloe Bailey, Pusha T, Lil Durk, Offset, 6lack, rapper Coi LeRay, Latto, Pharrell, Swae Lee, Jorja Smith, and Charlie

A couple of the same artists who worked on the upcoming LP were also featured on the 2017 compilation Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 1, including Young Thug, Pharrell Williams, Katy Perry, Frank Ocean, Migos, and Nicki Minaj. The Thea album spent 42 weeks on the Billboard 200 chart after debuting at No. 2.
Harris has been focusing on his acid house-focused Love Regenerator project over the past few years, so this is also his last album to be released. Since Harris debuted in 2007 with the iconic I Created Disco and went on to become the father of the EDM sound with hits like “Summer,” “Feel So Close,” and “We Found Love,” this will be his sixth studio album.
