Coi Leray returns with the official remix for her single “Lick Back” today via Epic Records. The track features a high profile collaboration with rising Philadelphia rapper Skrilla. This new version arrives following the original appearance of the song on the ‘What Happened To Forever?’ EP from February 12. The release includes an edgy and menacing music video directed by OSKH. The visual features both artists asserting their position in the industry through a series of sharp and confident performances.
The collaboration brings together two distinct voices within the modern rap landscape. Skrilla joins the project following the viral success of his breakout hit “Doot Doot” and the trending phrases associated with his work. Coi Leray continues to demonstrate her ability to blend universal appeal with various subcultures. The artist is currently navigating her PINKSWEATSUITS era as she prepares for a new project release. This creative phase follows the single “Pink Money” which featured contributions from G Herbo and Bktherula.
Her latest single “Act Like You Know” featuring Shoreline Mafia is currently moving up the American radio charts. Coi Leray recently performed with Shoreline Mafia during their headlining hometown show at The Forum in Los Angeles. These recent moves build on a career that includes two successful albums, ‘Trendsetter’ and ‘Coi.’ The artist has achieved three RIAA gold records and the double platinum success of “No More Parties” over the last several years. Her breakout hit “Players” earned a Top 10 spot on the Billboard Hot 100.
Born in Boston and raised in New Jersey, Leray uses her real life experiences to inspire her songwriting. Her music often features a signature blend of rap sung ballads and sharp lyrics. The new remix provides a fresh perspective on a track that originally showcased a more vulnerable side of her artistry. By partnering with Skrilla for this official update, she adds a grit and energy that aligns with her current musical direction. This release reinforces her status as a personable and evolving star in the current music industry.
