Coi Leray returns with the official remix of "Players" with David Guetta.

Coi Leray isn’t letting her foot off the gas when it comes to her hit record, “Players” and this week, she unloaded the remix with David Guetta. As the song continues to bubble on TikTok and the radio, Coi’s continued to deliver a slew of remixes to keep the record’s momentum high. She tapped into the buzzing Jersey Club sound when she linked up with DJ Smallz 732, who breathed new life into the song. Then, she linked up with DJ Saige for another remix of the record.

Over the weekend, Coi Leray joined the roster of artists who’ve had the opportunity to have David Guetta remix the song. Guetta’s remix of the record falls in line with his signature strain of club EDM by flipping the sample of “The Message” by Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five. While Coi doesn’t necessarily add any new vocals, the remix could very well be the anecdote to propel the single to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Either way, Coi continues to make a strong case for her staying power.

David Guetta Electrifies Coi Leray’s “Players” On The Official Remix

The success of “Players” certainly caught many people off-guard. In the past year, the New Jersey-based rapper made a 180 in her career following the release of her debut album, Trendsetter. Despite the number of high-profile features, the album was considered a flop commercially and critically, though she evidently didn’t prevent her from returning with new heat.

“​​I’m 25, and sometimes you don’t know everything,” Leray told Billboard of the song’s success. “I look at constructive criticism, even in a negative way. I try to figure out how to learn from it — just taking it and bringing it back even better. You don’t know everything. I learned the power of listening is key.” Evidently, Coi Leray is evolving and taking cues from the criticism she’s faced since she came out. Check out the David Guetta remix above and sound off with your thoughts in the comments.

Quotable Lyrics
Lil' titties showin' through the white tee
You can see the thong bussin' out my tight jeans
Rocks on my fingers like a n***a wifed me
Got another shorty? She ain't nothin' like me
