Upon dropping the aforementioned “Wanna Come Thru” in January, Coi Leray announced she was entering her “grown and sexy era.”

“This song is about me on my grown and sexy,” Coi said in a statement. “Grown and sexy means being so in love with yourself — that it is one of the sexiest, maturest, grownest things that a woman can [be]. As you get older you tap into your womanhood and your femininity and I feel like you should embrace that.

“It’s feeling good for yourself; looking in the mirror and just loving yourself. 2024 is going to be my grown and sexy era. I’m taking over this year. I’ve got so much new music and a whole new side of me to get to know.”

Mike Will Made-It also applauded Coi’s latest release, dubbing it a “culture-shifting record.”

“The song is just fresh and forward-pushing,” the Atlanta-bred producer said. “What I love about it is it sounds simple and easy to digest and instantly puts you in a mood. It’s the best feeling ever to be able to create a song that makes the listener feel good.”

He added: “This is hit No. 1 fasho, we have plenty more on the way.”

Coi Leray’s new deal with Island Records marks her second label home following Republic Records, who she joined in 2019 following the success of buzzing hits like “By Myself” and “Huddy.”

She released two albums on Republic — 2022’s Trendsetter and last year’s Coi — while scoring a string of Hot 100 hits including “No More Parties” with Lil Durk, the Nicki Minaj-assisted “Blick Blick” and, of course, “Players.”
