Will.i.am and Britney Spears’ reunion single, ‘Mind Your Business,’ didn’t exactly make their respective fan bases scream and shout the way their last joint Hot 100 top 5 hit did in 2012, but the song is far from a commercial failure.

Despite its absence from the Hot 100, ‘Mind’ moseyed to the top of the Billboard Dance/Electronic chart just shortly after its July 21 release.

In an attempt to reignite its bid for a placement on the main hitlist, the hitmaking duo have enlisted the help of 2x GRAMMY-winning DJ David Guetta for its official remix.

Hear the revamped cut in full inside.

‘Single Soon,’ the latest single from Selena Gomez, may have entered the Hot 100 last week at #19 (marking her 17th top 20 hit) but this week’s edition of the hitlist sees the 31-year-old nearly slip out of the top 40 as the Benny Blanco-produced cut plummeted to #39.

In an effort to turn the tide on the tune’s trajectory, Gomez is giving its accompanying music video some additional screen time by lifting the lid on its behind the scenes video.

“I’m picking out this dress/ Trying on these shoes/ ‘Cause I’ll be single soon/ I’ll be single soon,” Selena sings in the Philip Andelman-directed clip.
