Dutch DJ/producer Robin Roij is back with a remix of Rihanna‘s 2007 smash hit “Umbrella.” The original track topped charts around the world, including a seven-week run at No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot 100. It also earned the artist a Grammy award for “Best Rap/Sung Collaboration” alongside featured artist JAY-Z.

Roij is no stranger to DJcity’s Top 50 chart. His remix of Blackstreet‘s “No Diggity” was one of the most downloaded tracks of February. His moombahton flip of Terror Squad, Fat Joe, & Remy Ma‘s “Lean Back” was the 18th-most downloaded track of October 2018, and peaked at No. 7 on DJcity’s Hot Box chart.
