G-Eazy Taps Coi Leray, Kaliii to Celebrate Women on ‘Femme Fatale’
G-Eazy has dropped a new single, “Femme Fatale,” featuring Coi Leray and Kaliii. The song, an upbeat ode to women, samples Caribbean reggae funk group 20th Century Steel Band’s song “Heaven and Hell Is On Earth” and sees G-Eazy declaring himself a “feminist.”
“In ‘Femme Fatale,’ I really wanted to create a track that showcased two strong female voices from a unique perspective,” G-Eazy said in a statement. “This song is really about empowerment and sex positivity.”

The rapper debuted the track on The Tonight Show alongside Leray and Kaliii, who joined him onstage for a stylish, high-energy performance.
G-Eazy’s most recent album, These Things Happen Too, dropped in 2021. It featured “Breakdown,” a collaboration with Demi Lovato. That year he also teamed up with Diane Warren for her song “She’s Fire,” which appeared on the hit songwriter’s debut album, Diane Warren: The Cave Sessions Vol. 1.
Since then, the rapper has shared “Angel” a tribute to his mom, Suzanne Olmsted, and “Tulips & Roses,” which samples “Blame” by Gabriels. That song, released in 2023, marked his return after taking time off following the death of his mother. “Femme Fatale” is his first new music in over a year.
Leray, meanwhile, is about to hit the road with Jhené Aiko on her Magic Hour Tour following an appearance at Coachella. In January, she released “Wanna Come Thru,” her first single for new record label Island Records.
