"Can't Get Enough" is a song by American singer Becky G, featuring American rapper Pitbull. It was originally released on July 13, 2013, as the second track from her EP, Play It Again. It was later released as a single to Latin radio on March 29, 2014.

Background

In an interview with Rolling Stone, Gomez revealed that the single "happened in pieces", as it was originally a solo song. After she wrote the hook, DJ Buddha sent the track to Pitbull, who replied with some verse ideas, which replaced Gomez's second verse and were also included in the Spanish version of the song.[2]
