Grammy award-winning musician Jon Batiste has teamed up with Coke Studio to open the platform's new season with the song "Be Who You Are (Real Magic)".

The track is penned by Batiste, who has also performed the melody with international artists K-pop breakout group NewJeans; J I D, an Atlanta-born rapper; Camilo, a Latin Grammy-Award winning pop artist from Colombia; and Cat Burns, a chart-topping British singer-songwriter.

As a platform that celebrates borderless collaboration, "Coke Studio" has partnered with Batiste and over 16 of the biggest breakthrough music artists from the US, UK, Canada, South Africa, Colombia, Egypt, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Turkey, China, South Korea and the Philippines.

Indian singers Shreya Ghoshal and Diljit Dosanjh are also part of Coke Studio's initiative which brings musicians from different countries and genres together, a press release stated.

These artists have created nine brand new multi-artist 'collision' songs, and exclusive "Coke Studio" sessions from each artist, which will be released to global music fans on all music platforms in June and July.    "Be Who You Are (Real Magic)" was launched Wednesday. According to the makers, the song is a celebration of the power of staying true to yourself.

Batiste said he is "proud" to partner with "Coke Studio" to share a message of encouragement and humanity with the world through his music.

"The Coke Studio platform does great at harnessing their global reach to bring artists of different cultures together in celebration of our cultural differences and the ultimate oneness of us all. This is such a non-traditional, innovative approach we've taken, and it felt very organic for me to just do my World Music Radio thing.

"When I wrote "Be Who You Are (Real Magic)" I was inspired to create an anthem that captures the Real Magic that happens when we come together as our authentic selves. The anthem features new friends of mine from all around the world, these phenomenally special artists NewJeans, Camilo, J.I.D and Cat Burns. We really had a lot of fun and I hope people everywhere feel the vibe," the musician said in a statement.   Pratik Thakar, Head of Global Strategy & Creative, Coca-Cola, said "Real Magic" is about celebrating what happens when different people come together as their authentic selves.

"The 'Coke Studio' platform is the true representation of that, with the amazing artists we have brought together to deliver a programme that is bigger and bolder than before," Thakar said.

True collaboration between artists from different cultures, genres and backgrounds, or creative 'collisions', are at the heart of "Coke Studio", added Joshua Burke, Global Head of Music & Culture Marketing, Coca-Cola.

"Our goal for this programme is to always be music-driven and fan-first by bringing unique music and music experiences to the forefront. This year, we've worked with a diverse mix of amazingly talented artists from all over the world, bringing them together to create original music that we hope will transcend borders and excite music fans with something new," said Burke.

Also part of this collective are Imagine Dragons (US), Sam Smith (UK), Evdeki Saat (Turkey), Inner City Youth Orchestra of Los Angeles (US), Nasty C (South Africa), Jessie Reyez (US), Shae Gill (Pakistan), XIN LIU (China), Zack Tabudlo (Phillippines), and Afroto (Egypt).
