We have been counting down the days since hearing news Jessie J, Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj have teamed up for THE collaboration of the year and now the wait for Bang Bang, the lead single from Jessie's yet-to-be titled third album, is over.
After a string of cryptic tweets and tantalizing teasers from the ladies we can finally hear the full version of the jazzy uptempo powerhouse pop classic and after a few listens we can safely say it really is a banger in every sense of the word!
"She mighta let you hold her hand in school, but I'mma show you how to graduate," a sassy Ariana tells us in between the typical trills and thrills we've come to expect from Jessie J and quirky rhymes from Nicki.

The all-female anthem has been released on iTunes in the US before it's expected to be made available in the UK on September 28.
Bang Bang will serve as the lead single from Jessie J's third solo album following last year's Alive, which received a luke-warm reception from critics and fans alike, failing to match up to the enormous success of her debut Who You Are.
But we can all breathe a big sigh of relief as the British songstress is back with a bang, quite literally, with a little help from her American pals and we couldn't be happier to see Jessie back to fine form.
