Coi Leray receives more attention than ever now that she is a member of the 2021 XXL Freshman class. With her new track, “At The Top,” she tries to meet the demand for a follow-up hit to her breakout “No More Parties,” which has a beat by hitmaking producer Mustard and fellow Freshman honoree Kodak Black.
Coi Leray enjoys her newfound popularity while reminding listeners that the only thing that has changed is the number in her bank account on “At The Top,” which features a bright, uptempo beat. She uses a variety of flows, from the flowing melody of the hook to a clipped cadence reminiscent of Playboi Carti towards the start of her verse. To bring the song’s back end home, Kodak, who was just sentenced to probation in his 2016 sexual assault case, offers a cocky line, saying that he’s “eating branzino fish.”
Coi’s big year has also included a few feature verses as her contemporaries employed her to add her infectious charm to the remix of “Options” by Earthgang and Wale and to DDG’s “Impatient.”
