Trina adds a verse and hook to Drake's "Hotline Bling".

"Hotline Bling" has inspired a good number of remixes, but rather than the usual suspects from New York, it's mainly been women who have reworked the track. We've heard Mila J and Keyshia Cole manipulate the record, as well as a particularly great take from Erykah Badu. Now it's time for a full-fledged rapper to give it a try, with Trina stepping up to the plate today.

Starting things off with some swift bars aimed at an ex, Trina reminds us of her thrilling chops as an emcee before leaning into the hook with a slightly altered take on the lyrics. Her album, 6, is due out later this year.

Quotable Lyrics:
But you never found another bitch
To come close to this
'Cause now I know where your focus is
I'm disconnecting this hopelessness
Remember I was the bitch you was slidin' with
All the accolades and the accomplishments
All the time and sweat that I invested in
Now you acting like I'm some distant chick
I'm hanging up the line... *click*
