Griff has recorded a rendition of the iconic Queen song "A Kind of Magic," and based on the feedback it received, it was quite magical, to say the least.

She joins six other musicians, including Ari Lennox and K-pop duo TRI.BE, who have released their own renditions of the 1986 classic to celebrate the global growth of Coke Studio, which was originally established in Pakistan in 2008.

The artists also collaborated for a short documentary named "The Conductor" in which they all perform the song together.

Queen initially reached No. 3 on the UK singles chart with this song in 1986.

Meanwhile, Griff and Sigrid have just released a new remix of their recent joint hit, "Head On Fire," which features King Princess and M.

Griff has recently shared why her partnership with Sigrid has been so rewarding and fulfilling.

"I think we're genuinely friends," she said. "I feel like it was birthed out of us actually really getting along with each other, and when we got into the studio, it wasn't that we wanted to write a collab, it was that we just wanted to hang out."

Sigrid added: "We literally just wanted to go and get coffee, but it was easier to tell our teams that we were going to the studio!"

While Griff is already a sensation in the UK, she's only starting to become a household name in the US, following her tour in North America back in January.

She is for now, notable for opening Dua Lipa's "Future Nostalgia" tour. Atkoltendees were treated to a superb opening performance from Griff.

The 21-year-old singer launched the Utilita Arena performance with a half-hour of superb electropop songs that perfectly warmed up the audience.

She performed "One Night," which appeared on her debut album "One Foot in Front of the Other." It was a such a pleasure to hear among those who went to the concert for Dua Lipa.

Griff's vocal range and the genre she represents are already sufficient to make her a headliner; all she would need are a couple more tracks to complete a full-length set.
