Background[]

"Don't Give Up on Me" was first leaked in the Reddit community by fans, who shared a link to the unlisted video that was published on Mako's YouTube channel. The video was immediately taken down and removed from public access.[6][7]

The song is described as a genre-bending banger beginning with "a post-apocalyptic vibe" with "dark synths contrasted by layered harmonic vocals."[8][9][10]

About the song, Illenium told Billboard "I've looked up to Kill the Noise for a while now, so it was awesome to get a chance to work on a song with him... I got the vocal from Mako and instantly fell in love with it."[11]
