Returning to Hamburg, he came to prominence in 2015 through his remix of Jamaican artist OMI's song "Cheerleader". The single was an international hit for him topping the charts in Germany, Austria, Belgium (Flanders and Wallonia), Canada, Denmark, France, Ireland, the Netherlands, Slovakia, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom and the United States.
In April 2015, he released a remix of Rufus and Chaka Khan classic "Ain't Nobody" retitled "Ain't Nobody (Loves Me Better)" featuring the vocals of Jasmine Thompson (based on an earlier charting version of the song by Thompson). The remix was an international pan-European hit topping the German Singles Chart.

Guwop
I see you treat me differently
'Cause you don't need therapy on a Friday night
And you said you'd be there for me, I can't believe
I should have known you wouldn't at the time, no no
Promise me you'll never change
So this is how it's gonna be?
You're texting me on my birthday
You don't even try
Remember, you told me you'd never forget where you came from
Remember, you told me we'd always stay homies from day one
And now you're not who you used to be
I don't know what you're dying to prove
So hit me up when you're over being cool
Your new friends will say anything
But if you wanna know the truth
Hit me up when you're over being cool
Cool
Cool
Used to ask me for my help
When no one else gave a fuck about a single word you said
In a minute I'll be there, no matter where
Kinda funny just how quickly you forget
Remember, you told me you'd never forget where you came from
Remember, you told me we'd always stay homies from day one
And now you're not who you used to be
I don't know what you're dying to prove
So hit me up when you're over being cool
Your new friends will say anything
But if you wanna know the truth
Hit me up when you're over being cool (Uh, yeah, go)
I got her sprung for my dick, she addicted (yeah)
I got a rude girl, rich off her lipstick (mwah)
Designer diva, we both materialistic (Guc)
I'm from the 6, but I ball like the fifth pick (ball)
To make her slide through, I gotta tell her some slick
So many diamonds in it, bracelet where her wrist at
I thought your homegirl was cool, but she flipped it (no)
Don't listen to them hoes, man that's gossip (oh)
Skinny chick only point me to a thick bitch (yeah)
Ugly bitch only point me to a pretty chick (yeah)
We ain't turning down, not even a little bit (no)
But if they can't read between the lines, they illiterate (It's Gucci)
Remember, you told me you'd never forget where you came from
Remember, you told me we'd always stay homies from day one
Cool
And now you're not who you used to be
I don't know what you're dying to prove
So hit me up when you're over being cool
Your new friends will say anything
But if you wanna know the truth
Hit me up when you're over being cool
The first verse of Felix Jaehn's "Cool" expresses disappointment and betrayal towards a friend who has changed for the worse. The lyrics suggest that the friend, who promised to never change, has become too cool for the person singing the song. Despite this, the friend still attempts to reach out to the singer by texting them, but the singer knows that it's only for show. The chorus emphasizes this point, asking the friend to hit them up when they're over being cool.
The second verse is a continuation of the first, focusing more specifically on memories of the past and how the friend used to rely on the singer for help. The chorus repeats, with the same message that the friend needs to stop trying to be something they're not and come back to their roots.
Overall, the song is about the disappointment of losing a friendship to the superficiality of the "cool" lifestyle. It speaks to the importance of staying true to oneself and not getting swept up in the trap of trying to impress others.
