LAS VEGAS, NEVADA – MAY 01: Halsey (4th L) and BTS perform during the 2019 Billboard Music Awards … [+]
Suga from BTS and Halsey have worked together several times in the past, and their relationship seems to still be going strong, as the pair have something new to share with fans coming in just a few days.
The two talents are set to collaborate on a brand new version of Halsey’s track “Lilith,” remixing the tune so it can be featured as part of the highly anticipated soundtrack for the upcoming Blizzard RPG game, Diablo IV.
“Lilith” isn’t a new song, but now that Suga is involved, it will sound fresh to fans of both artists. The track was originally featured on Halsey’s 2021 album If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power, though it wasn’t spun off as a single at the time.
The official music video for the collaboration, which has now been retitled “Lilith (Diablo IV Anthem),” is set to premiere on June 5. A tantalizing 20-second teaser for the upcoming music video has been unveiled, giving fans a thrilling glimpse of what’s to come. The clip sees Halsey portraying the Blessed Mother Lilith character from the Diablo IV game.
While the announcement of Suga’s involvement is brand new, the idea of “Lilith” being connected to the video game is not shocking to those who follow Halsey or the title closely. Halsey delivered a captivating performance of the cut at the 2022 Game Awards, which were held at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles. It seems that showing was a teaser of what’s to come.
“Lilith” marks the third track that Halsey and Suga will release together. They most recently joined forces for “Suga’s Interlude,” featured on Halsey’s 2020 album, Manic. That cut was a sales win, but it didn’t manage to crack the Hot 100.
Several years prior, Halsey joined not just Suga, but all of BTS on the single “Boy With Luv,” which turned out to be a major milestone for the band. The song bolted into the top 10 on the Hot 100, peaking at No. 8. At the time, that was a new peak position for the K-pop outfit, and it made them just the second South Korean musical act to break into the region.
