Mary J Blige has revealed a new Disclosure-produced track, 'Right Now', which was written by Sam Smith. Listen to it below.

Earlier in the year, the singer laid down vocals for Disclosure's brilliant 'F For You', as well as appearing on a new version of Sam Smith's 'Stay With Me'.

Now she's teamed up with the British talents again for her forthcoming album The London Sessions. The new track, 'Right Now', was written by Smith and produced by Disclosure.

Speaking of her attraction to the UK music scene, Blige told The Observer, "The sound in London at the moment is house music. That is what the majority of people are producing their songs like. But the ones that get truly successful are the ones using proper songwriting."

She added: "Rudimental for example - they write proper songs and then produce them like dance music. And that is exactly what we’re trying to do, along with a few other people. But that applies to any genre, not just dance music.

"You could take the songs off Sam Smith’s album, produce them in a completely different way and they would still be a huge success – you could produce them like acid jazz and I still feel like they’d get somewhere."

The London Sessions, which also features contributions from Emeli Sande, Naughty Boy, Sam Romans and Jimmy Napes, and is due for release later this autumn.
