"New to You" is a song by Scottish DJ and record producer Calvin Harris, American singers Normani and Tinashe and American rapper Offset. It was released on 29 July 2022 through Columbia Records as the fourth single from Harris' sixth studio album, Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 2. The song was written by the artists alongside Jessie Reyez.

Background

"New to You" marks the second time Harris has teamed up with Tinashe, following their song "Dollar Signs" from his fourth studio album Motion (2014); he also previously teamed up with Normani on the 2018 extended play Normani x Calvin Harris, which contains the songs "Checklist" and "Slow Down"; and previously joined Offset on the Frank Ocean–assisted single "Slide" from his album Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 1 (2017).

Composition

The song was composed by Harris, alongside Normani, Tinashe, Offset, and singer-songwriter Jessie Reyez.

Musically, "New to You" is a bubbly R&B-inspired post-disco song. Billboard referred to it as "classy orchestral arrangements with glittery disco vibes". The track has also been described as having "a swaying groove, punchy stings and synths leading the way over a slick bass line". It sees Normani singing about seducing a potential love interest with the lyrics "This might be news to you / This thing might feel new to you / But if you like everything / I think you might love me, baby" in the chorus; and Offset rapping about "the effervescent feeling of finding the right person" with lyrics like "I was dead on relationships / You made me feel like living."
