David Guetta and Bebe Rexha Revitalize Turn of the Century Hit, “Blue”
It was a record that may have otherwise been buried in the archives, but with the help of TikTok’s algorithm, David Guetta and Bebe Rexha‘s “I’m Good (Blue),” is finally seeing an official release. “It’s nostalgic to when I was younger,” Rexha told Rolling Stone. “Listening to Eiffel 65’s original song and it was just a fun record that we put together naturally.” Years prior, the “Hey Mama” collaborators teamed up to remix this turn of the century classic.
