In a music landscape where collaboration often leads to magic, The Chainsmokers and Kim Petras have delivered something truly irresistible with their latest single, “Don’t Lie”.
This track is a celebration of desire, spontaneity, and the unfiltered joy that often comes with chaos.

From the first note, “Don’t Lie” hooks you with a breezy, pulsing beat—an ode to minimalist house that shows restraint while leaving plenty of room for the song’s deep emotional layers to unfold. The Chainsmokers’ signature production thrives in the spaces between the sounds, crafting a rhythm that is deceptively simple yet undeniably infectious. Kim Petras’ vocals, both sultry and sweet, glide effortlessly over the track, giving voice to the song’s whispering desires and fleeting connections.

The songwriting team behind “Don’t Lie” reads like a powerhouse lineup: The Chainsmokers, Petras, Emily Warren, and Ink. Their combined talents result in a song that pulses with life, yet remains elegantly understated—a kind of sonic alchemy that’s hard to pull off but sounds effortless here.

But if the song itself captures the energy of a perfect late-summer night, the accompanying music video, directed by Chris Maggio, takes that mood and turns it into a visual spectacle. The video kicks off with a scene that feels like pure Petras mischief: she emerges from a muddy puddle, playful and unbothered, as though she’s the spirit of a wild summer storm. Her carefree attitude sets the tone for a video that blends adventure with unpredictability.

As the video unfolds, we find The Chainsmokers and Petras embarking on a sun-soaked joyride, cruising in a Jeep with the top down and not a care in the world. The carefree vibe of the video, however, quickly shifts when a storm rolls in, transforming their summer party into a whirlwind of flying tents, overturned tables, and wild chaos. But in true form, instead of running for cover, they dance in the rain, embracing the storm with a kind of cool defiance.

The visuals mirror the essence of the song—life doesn’t always go as planned, but when you lean into the chaos, beauty can emerge. “Don’t Lie” isn’t just a track about desire; it’s a reminder to savor the unpredictable moments that define us. And with The Chainsmokers’ subtle production and Petras’ electric energy, this single feels destined to be a hit, whether on late-night playlists or in packed clubs.

This is music for those who know how to find magic in the mess, and in “Don’t Lie”, The Chainsmokers and Kim Petras have struck gold.
