T-Pain Taps Kehlani and BIA for "I Like Dat" Remix
T-Pain first sent BIA an Instagram DM with the idea.
Following his release of “I Like Dat” featuring Kehlani earlier this year, T-Pain has enlisted BIA for a remixed version of the track, out today.
Ahead of the remix’s drop, T-Pain took to Instagram to share a screenshot of a private DM he sent to BIA, reading, “Hey I have an idea.”
“Someone tell @bia to answer her DMs,” he captioned the post.

BIA commands the song’s introductory verse, rapping about dropping thousands of dollars on expensive items and her preference for Prada and Louboutin shoes. ”I like Prada for the shoes, just so I can move better,” she raps. “Only time I do the Loubs is to match the coupe leather.”
The original track, which incorporates elements of T-Pain’s 2007 class “Buy U a Drank,” was released in May. Following the track’s unveiling, T-Pain and Kehlani put out a western-inspired music video inspired by Paul McCartney and Michael Jackson’s 1983 “Say Say Say” visual, which saw the duo take over a ranch in cowboy-style ensembles.
Meanwhile, Kehlani last month announced that her third studio album, Blue Water Road, will drop this winter. The record will land as the follow-up to 2020’s It Was Good Until It Wasn’t, which featured Jhené Aiko, Masego, Lucky Daye and James Blake.
