Doechii, Lady Gaga Release ‘Devil Wears Prada 2’ Song ‘Runway’

Doechii and Lady Gaga released “Runway” on Thursday, their collaboration track from The Devil Wears Prada 2. The song arrives ahead of the film’s debut on May 1.

“You gonna burn your tongue on this tea,” warns Gaga on the track, before Doechii declares, “Got the front row screaming, ‘Okay, okay’/ Do a little twirl/Let ’em know I’m that girl.” In theme with the fashion-forward film, the song repeats: “Monday through Sunday, I can turn the dancefloor into a runway.”

Written by Bruno Mars, Jaylah Hickmon, Gaga, Andrew Watt, Henry Walter, Dernst “D’Mile” Emile II, and Jayda Love, the single was produced by Mars, Andrew Watt, Cirkut and D’Mile. Gaga and Mars previously collaborated on their Grammy-winning song “Die With a Smile.”

The pair teased the track earlier this week in the film’s final trailer. The highly anticipated movie reunites the original cast, including Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Emily Blunt, Stanley Tucci, and more. It also features appearances from Simone Ashley, Caleb Hearon, Donatella Versace, and other stars. Back in October, Gaga was spotted on set in Milan a day after Donatella Versace was seen.

Both Gaga and Doechii have praised each other in the press prior to their song dropping. “You don’t often see someone come out of the gate with a pen that feels immediately legendary,” Gaga told British Vogue last year. “That’s Doechii to me. I fell in love with her music and her raw, deeply personal perspective.”

Doechii shared her reaction to the pop icon’s words during an interview with People. “I audibly gasped, literally. I’m the biggest Lady Gaga fan, and she is so dedicated to her creativity and pushing the limits, so for a legend like that to say that about me, it really, really validated me in a humbling way,” said Doechii.
