“Working with Nelly has been high on my wishlist for many years! She’s an absolute icon on so many levels – and now, she’s the voice on a record we crafted together to soundtrack this year’s summer. ‘Doing Nothin’‘ brings back that 90s piano house energy with a modern twist. It’s been a long time in the making, and we’re beyond excited to finally share it with the world.” – Don Diablo
“I had so much fun working on ‘Doing Nothin” with Don Diablo. After all these years, it’s exciting to still be part of something that feels this fresh and full of energy. Collaborating with artists who push things forward keeps it all evolving – and that’s what I’m here for.” – Nelly Furtado
Global dance music innovator Don Diablo teams up with iconic singer-songwriter Nelly Furtado for their vibrant new single “Doing Nothin’,” via Casablanca Records. Blending a nostalgic nod to ’90s house with fresh, modern production, the track is a celebration of summer escapism and carefree vibes, driven by a classic four-on-the-floor beat, bright piano chords, and playful percussion. Nelly’s effortlessly sassy vocals inject the song with a cheeky charm, turning it into an instant earworm that feels tailor-made for warm-weather playlists and festival stages.
Lyrically, “Doing Nothin’” flips the script on hustle culture, embracing idleness as a form of empowerment and joy. The track continues Don Diablo’s streak of high-profile collaborations—including MK, Major Lazer, and Jamiroquai—while showcasing a playful, feel-good side of Furtado as she further cements her return to music. Together, they deliver a sun-drenched anthem that’s poised to become a defining sound of the season.
