Maroon 5 has enlisted Nicki Minaj for the official remix of their current single, "Sugar". The Young Money raptress adds hip-hop flavor by spitting some new bars on the new version the band premiered on Monday, March 9.

Minaj opens the song as she gives shout out to her favorite sweets ("I got them Now & Laters, and them Jolly Ranchers too") and talks about getting naked for her man ("When I see him I'mma strip like the dancers do") before Adam Levine emerges to deliver the chorus.

Editors' Pick

"Sugar" is currently sitting at No. 3 on Billboard Hot 100. It's featured on Maroon 5's fifth studio effort "V" which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard 200 following its release last year.

Minaj isn't the first hip-hop act to have remixed the songs off the album. Levine and his bandmates previously hired Big Sean and J. Cole to rework their "Maps" and "Animals", respectively.
