It was at Coke Studio Africa - 2017 that Tanzanian BET-award winning singer Rayvanny met up with the American Pop Star Jason Derulo during the recording of Coke Studio's Global Fusion Edition that included 10 other African stars who collaborated with Jason Derulo. From their music exchange at Coke Studio, Jason Derulo and Rayvanny kept contact and even met up in the US, sharing very little information on what they were cooking. Alas! The remix to Jason's latest global hit "Tip Toe" has surfaced with Rayvanny and French Montana featured on the track. With Rayvanny's touch—the hit dance song perfectly captures an authentic African sound paired well with Jason's global pop and urban sounds/influences.
