Singer Adam Levine has released his first new song following his cheating scandal, a duet with Colombian singer Maluma entitled "Ojalá."
The song, released on Friday, features Levine singing in Spanish. "Ojalá que cuando él te lo haga, pienses en mi, Ojalá que sea mi nombre que quieras repetir," he sings, which translates in English to, "Hopefully, when he does it to you, you think of me; hopefully, it's my name that you want to repeat."
Maluma teased the collaboration back in June when he shared an Instagram photo of him and the Maroon 5 frontman in the studio.

The new surprise collaboration follows last month's cheating scandal involving Levine and Instagram model Sumner Stroh, who claimed the two had an affair. The allegations came to light days after Levine and wife Behati Prinsloo confirmed they are expecting their third child together.
