Alex Da Kid's made a name for himself as one of the hottest producers in the music industry. Over the course of his career, he's worked with a diverse group of artists including U2, Christina Aguilera, Dr. Dre, Diddy, Nicki Minaj and more. The producer also launched his own record label, KIDinaKORNER in 2011. Whether he's working on solo efforts or with others, he's bound to produce heat. Back in May, he released his song, "Go" with H.E.R and Rapsody. Today, he comes through with an updated version of the track with one of U.K.'s most notable emerging artists.

Jorja Smith joins H.E.R and Rapsody on Alex Da Kid's "Go 2.0." The addition of Jorja Smith's vocals bring a brand new dynamic to the track. The interesting part about this song is how the original came about. Instead of using the A&R method of bringing artists together, Alex Da Kid used a new technology called IBM Talent to help him uncover some talent he wasn't familiar with before.

Jorja's addition to the track makes the track even more solid. Smith's been having a great year so far after releasing her debut album, Lost & Found. She's bound to do some great things in the future so keep your eyes peeled for more moves from the U.K. songstress.

Quotable Lyrics
And I'll need a drink to be bold
It's hard to commit when I'm sober
So dangerous when I'm alone
So stay with me 'til we're hungover
