He followed that up with another top-five hit, Mama, in 2017 before his track Alien and now Ritual co-starring Rita Ora.

Singer Ellie Goulding posted a video on of herself shimmying along to his track Perfect Strangers on Instagram.
Jonas told Clubz: "Seeing Ellie dancing to Perfect Strangers was really amazing.
"I was actually in Italy at the time finishing a gig and my phone was going crazy. I then saw why!
"It’s amazing how much can reach so many people especially artists who I really love and respect."
The hitmaker was also linked to Love Island 2017 star Tyla Carr after the two cosied up at V Festival after he admitted he found her 'hot'.
