If you thought O.T. Genasis was just going to let "CoCo" run its course naturally and fade into the memories of those who remember yelling, "I'm in love with the coco" or "Baking soda, baking soda" toward the end of 2014, you were wrong. He and Busta Rhymes's label The Conglomerate decided they needed another remix round for "CoCo" with the help of Chris Brown, following the first remix effort provided by coco experts in Meek Mill and Jeezy -- though never proven to be one.
O.T. gets Brown to join the party, and he expresses his love for cocaine and dishes out his admiration for fine women with lines like "A thousand dollar tip for the waiter / I'm in love with these sexy bartender."
Genasis does a different opening verse again, but keeps the hook the same and is then joined by Brown on the final hook to close out the song, via Hot New Hip Hop.
This seems to all come off as a little desperate and unnecessary. The original song was a huge hit and, while one remix is good to breathe some new life into it with verses from outside artists, a second remix just beleaguers the point.
Brown has finally gotten under way his Between the Sheets tour with Trey Songz and Tyga after the whole tour had to be postponed and some dates rescheduled because the "Loyal" singer was dealing with lingering legal issues that kept him from touring. The tour heads to the Joe Louis Arena in Detroit tonight, Feb. 15.
