Two years after the release of their album V in 2014, Maroon 5 has finally dropped a new single Don't Wanna Know. The Beny Blanco-produced track features Kendrick Lamar. It was made available for purchase on iTunes on 11 October.

The 3.33-minute tropical house number has a breezy tune mixed with EDM beats and brings to mind Mike Posner's I Took A Pill In Ibiza. Lamar contributes a single verse to the song with the lines: "No more police stop/No more hashtag boo'd up screenshots/No more tryin' make me jealous on your birthday/You know just how I make you better on your birthday, oh."
