Grammy Award-winning producer Boi-1da and Philly rap legend Meek Mill may just have a Latin crossover hit on their hands.

According to a report from NBC News on Thursday (January 27), the pair have joined forces with renowned recording artist Gloria Estefan for the reboot of her 35-year-old hit record “Conga.” The re-work also includes vocals from Latin Grammy Award-winning artist Leslie Grace.

In conjunction with a strategic partnership between artists and Bacardí rum, Boi-1da says the intention of “Conga” was to “recreate the track for our generation,” and says he wanted to remain true to the original sound of the record while re-making it.
