Hailee Steinfeld & Grey – STARVING feat. ZEDD (Official Audio)

They had been teasing it for a while on social media but here finally is in its full and high-quality version.

“Starving” is the first collaboration between Hailee Steinfeld and Zedd.

The track, which is believed to be the lead single from Hailee’s upcmoming much-anticipated full-length debut album (last year she dropped the “Haiz” EP – featuring the female masturbation anthem “Love Myself”), was released digitally everywhere today, July 15th, via Republic Records.

How to describe “Starving”? Think of it as a more upbeat, more EDM-infused version of Rihanna’s “Take A Bow”. Yeah, that’s it. Actually Hailee sounds a bit like Rihanna in “Starving”. Don’t you think? The first thing I thought when I heard the verses of her new single was: “Wow, she sounds like Rihanna in this, and the verses’ melody reminds me of “Take A Bow” a bit. It’s the same vulnerability.”.

“Starving” is not a club banger, it’s more nostalgic and romantic, but each chorus boasts a Zedd-made EDM drop that is clearly targeting the club audiences. No doubt killer remixes can be made with this song.

“I didn’t know that I was starving till I tasted you”, sings Hailee in the chorus. Yep, somebody has found love!

First Look: Hailee Steinfeld In ‘Edge Of Seventeen’

Though she most recently stole our hearts as a college a cappella champ in Pitch Perfect 2, Hailee Steinfeld is heading back to high school for her latest film.

On Thursday, People debuted the first trailer for The Edge of Seventeen, in which Hailee plays a teen with a laundry list of devastating (at least, by high school standards) problems. How does her life suck so? Let us count the ways: Her supposed BFF (Haley Lu Richardson) is hooking up with her annoyingly perfect brother (Glee’s Blake Jenner); she accidentally sends embarrassingly graphic texts to her crush; her only confidante is her apathetic history teacher (Woody Harrelson); and her mom (Kyra Sedgwick) is hopelessly clueless about all of this ~drama~.

Check out the full trailer below, which is surprisingly not soundtracked by Stevie Nicks’s “Edge of Seventeen,” but by an acoustic cover of the Beatles’s “Help.” What a missed opportunity.

Hailee Steinfeld Reveals Release Date for New Song With Zedd

From her hit single “Love Myself” to her “Rock Bottom” collaboration with Joe Jonas’s band, DNCE, Hailee Steinfeld has had a breakout year with her music. The singer is also opening for Meghan Trainor’s upcoming Untouchable tour, which kicks off this Thursday (July 14) at the PNE Amphitheater in Vancouver. Get your tickets now — she’s going places, metaphorically and literally.

Before she hits the road, Hailee dropped major news first about her upcoming single, “Starving,” which she worked on with Zedd. She posted lengthy teasers on Instagram of her singing complete verses of their song. Her first clip stayed true to her Pitch Perfect roots as she sang completely in a cappella.

The star then followed up with some major harmonizing of another part of the song. These preview clips couldn’t be catchier and it’ll have you replaying her ‘gram videos again and again. She just tweeted Friday with a hashtag of the single’s title implying the track would be out at the end of the week. There’s no scheduled show for Friday (July 15), but that doesn’t mean she and Zedd can’t surprise fans with an official performance down the road.
