Steve Aoki and Backstreet Boys Drop ‘Let It Be Me’

It’s the collab that everyone is talking about. Superstar DJ Steve Aoki and the Backstreet Boys have dropped their new single “Let It Be Me,” in their first-ever collaboration.

So how did these two powerhouses get together? Steve invited Nick Carter to his show at Hakkasan and during the show, Carter, without hesitation, hopped on stage to perform the iconic single “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back).” The pair immediately recognized the energy that impromptu moment created and made plans to harness that into something new and original.  That night led to a  collaboration converging fans from both worlds. The combination of Aoki’s lively beat and the Backstreet Boys’ harmonic vocals result in a pop smash for the brokenhearted, with a video to follow on Monday.

“Being able to work with these guys was so organic and effortless. Collaborating with a group that I’ve been listening to since I was a kid was such a memorable moment for me,” said Aoki. “This song has a beautiful message and relates to a lot of different people overcoming challenges when you love someone, and love always wins in the end. I’m really proud of this one and know it will touch a lot of people.”

“Our collaboration with Steve came about in a very organic way,” said the Backstreet Boys. “We had the opportunity to spend some time with Steve at his house really getting to know each other, and the song developed naturally from there. The message behind it is one we think everyone can relate to. It’s about working through any challenges that life brings to be with the person you love. And the importance of that message is something we really tried to show with the music video by having real couples tell their stories.”
