STIKMATIK & Mike Renza Take a Spin on Smash Song “Wipe It Down”
Taking a spin on BMW Kenny’s smash hit “Wipe It Down,” artists STIKMATIK and Mike Renza are hitting New Music Friday today with their very own remix of the track via 10Eighty Records.
The original release of “Wipe It Down” literally took the world by storm. Going viral on TikTok, the song garnered over 2.4 billion views on the #WipeItDownChallenge. A-list stars including Will Smith, Jason Derulo, and Kira Kosarin all jumped on board to be part of this song’s success. It also peaked at #3 on Spotify’s Global Viral Weekly Charts. Now, the hit is receiving a full dose of deep house to propel it even farther into the stratosphere.
STIKMATIK and Mike Renza have changed the game by adding fresh energy to the original. Tactfully chopping up BMW Kenny’s signature vocals, STIKMATIK & Mike Renza flip the track with a driving kick and heavy 808s. Blaring house beats shoot this two-and-a-half remix into the airwaves with an immediate jolt of caffeine. As if having one version of this song wasn’t popular enough, now the world is about to experience it all over again.
