With nearly 30 global chart-toppers to his production credit, Benny Blanco is the mastermind behind many of the last decade’s mega hits including numbers from Britney Spears, Katy Perry, Ed Sheeran, The Weeknd, Justin Bieber, and more.

After gifting the latter the third Hot 100 #1 of his career, ‘Love Yourself,’ the duo have reunited with hopes of recreating that magic (as we reported here).

“What if you had it all but nobody to call? “Maybe then you’d know me,” Justin sings. “‘Cause I’ve had everything, but no one’s listening and that’s just f*cking lonely.”

Speaking on the new Aiko duet, the singer-rapper said:

“‘By Yourself’ is an ode to all the amazing women, especially all the single women and the single mothers, who do this thing called life on their own.  Especially now more than ever. Ladies if you’re handling your responsibilities by yourself, just know we see you and appreciate you.”
