Maluma's "Hawaí" is one of the biggest songs in the world. It has dominated Billboard's Global 200 chart, hitting the top spot and holding momentum for weeks. 

For the last few days, The Weeknd has been teasing a collaboration with Maluma, recently revealing that they remixed "Hawaí" to give it even more of a boost.

"I have always admired The Weeknd so it feels nothing short of a dream come true to have him collab on 'HAWÁI' Remix - he brought another flow to it and sang in both Spanish and English which is impressive," said Maluma about the new release.

As he expressed, The Weeknd sings the hook in Spanish and, in his verse, he shows more vulnerability than usual. He speaks about a break-up where he told his lover that he wasn't interested in marriage, claiming that he'd "rather go half on a baby" with her.

In addition to the remix's release, the music video premiered simultaneously.

Get ready for this one to have an even longer stay on the charts.

Listen below.

Quotable Lyrics:

So now he's your heaven
You're lying to yourself and him to make me jealous
You put on such an act when you're sleepin' together
All this 'cause I said I don't want marriage
I don't want marriage
I'd rather go half on a baby
'Cause at least I know that it's not temporary
And at least we'll share something that's real
I can tell that you're just tryna feel
