Weeks after becoming her inaugural top 10 hit on the Hot 100, Coi Leray‘s TikTok-fueled hit ‘Players‘ continues to garner enough plays on radio and streaming outlets to keep it inside the hitlist’s top 10.

Not keen to rest on the laurels of its success, Leray is looking to see the Grandmaster Flash & Furious Five-sampling cut accompanied in Billboard’s upper rankings by even more of her music: namely two new songs ‘Bops’ and ‘My Body.’

Speaking to Apple Music about the former, Coi was everything but coy discussing about the Johnny Goldstein-produced cut’s “big energy.”

“Once I heard the beat from Johnny Goldstein, I’m like, ‘Oh my God, this sh*t is going to be insane.’ And I automatically got a hop right on it and I just got to talk my sh*t, like summertime’s coming and yeah, I feel like I got a lot to say,” she shared.

Barring the release of specialty projects and EPs, six years have separated fans of Miguel from a proper studio album (2017’s ‘War & Leisure’).  However, with new song ‘Give It To Me,’ the GRAMMY winner is finally gearing up for chart war again.

“If I lose focus, help me concentrate, oh, love (Help me concentrate, hey) / I’ll be your doctor, let me operate (Yeah) you (Baby, the way you like) / Your body on infernos, inferno (Ooh, ah), your eyes don’t lie-ie-ie (Ooh, ah) /I mean, you fine and you fertile, fertile (Ooh-ah),” Miggy croons on the Scoop DeVille-produced number.

And while the arrival of ‘Give’ sees the 37-year-old capitalize on renewed attention to his catalog thanks to the unexpected resurgence in popularity of his 2011 hit, ‘Sure Thing,’ what is unsure (as of time reported) is if the new tune will serve as the first single from his yet-titled fifth studio album.

Until we find out for certain, hop inside to hear ‘Give.’
