Sweet news for Saweetie fans!

The rising rapstress’ latest single, ‘Best Friend,’ had its best showing yet on the Billboard Hot 100 as it lifted to a new peak of #28 on the recently refreshed tally.

To keep that momentum going, Saweetie tagged fellow rapstress Stefflon Don to hop on the remix of the Dr. Luke-produced cut (which previously featured Doja Cat).

“You know I’m always killin’ the show / In the streets I’m a lady, in the bed I’m a hoe / Ain’t a stripper but I really put it down on the pole / Plus I get dizzy in the kitchen, flick my wrist on the stove,” Stefflon spits on the ‘Friend’ revamp.

While Cat fans won’t likely appreciate her contribution being limited to the chorus with the removal of her entire verse, will Stef’s addition be just what’s needed to finally push the bop into the top 20?
