If we had to crown a queen of remixes so far this year, it would undoubtedly be Coi Leray. Not only did she give fans several versions of her smash hit single, “Players,” which first landed in January, but we’ve also heard the Boston native lend her vocal talent to a lot of other artists in recent weeks. At the end of March, it was Sabrina Carpenter’s “Nonsense (Remix),” and now, she’s helping out British singer RAYE with an updated edition of “Flip A Switch.”
The song previously arrived on the foreign talent’s debut album, My 21st Century Blues a few months back, and quickly became a fan favourite. On the chorus, RAYE sings, “Flip a switch on a prick, then I / Come alive in the nighttime / In the club, sippin’ Hennessy / And tell him I’m dead if he callin’ me.” The infectious beat was produced by Mike Sabath, Dj Genius, and the 25-year-old singer-songwriter herself.
As expected, Leray chiefly brightens up the remix with her bold energy. Her verse begins, “Bad bitch break hearts, all-black Patek watch / Swervin’ through London, we got stars in the race cars.” She later comes through with bars like “We got pretty bitch energy, that’s why they hate us / Guns up for the real ones, let that shit bust,” and “C-O-I, he said, ‘Coi Leray, you lit / We in VIP, takin’ shots with my bitch.” Besides today’s (April 21), single, we’ve also recently heard her on “Baby Don’t Hurt Me” with David Guetta and Anne-Marie, which is already making waves as we inch closer and closer to summer.
