Pop music fans are going to have something worth hyperventilating over by the end of the week. Party-girl weirdo and frequent PC Music collaborator Charli XCX took to Twitter Monday to hype the release of a track featuring her Atlantic Records labelmate Lizzo in the most Charli of ways: all caps and slang.

Lizzo, meanwhile, chimed in to share footage of her and Charli performing Lizzo’s Missy Elliott collab “Tempo”:

Lizzo is currently taking the blogosphere by storm with her major label debut and third album overall, Cuz I Love You, released in April and featuring the already-iconic “Juice.” Charli’s last single, the nostalgic “1999” with Troye Sivan, reached number 13 on the U.K. Singles charts.
Check back later this week for the duo’s incoming bop and in the meantime, check out both of their Daytrotter Sessions below.
