Dropping tomorrow, September 24, as announced by Guetta this collaboration is set to bring extended life to the song of the summer. “My remix of @farruko’s ‘Pepas’ is coming on Friday,” wrote the DJ on his social media. 

Guetta tested out the remix at a festival recently, and said it received an “insane reaction.” He also shared in an Instagram Reels that he used a similar concept of his popular track “Love Tonight” for this remix. “You’re going to love this one too,” he says in the clip.
