In early 2009, Chicago DJ/producer 'DJ Inphinity' created a bootleg using the Silvio Ecomo remix of DJ Chuckie's 2008 hit "Let the Bass Kick" and the a cappella of LMFAO's "I'm in Miami Bitch", creating "Let the Bass Kick in Miami Bitch" (or "Let the Bass Kick in Miami Girl" as the radio edit). The bootleg was spread across the internet and was a massive success at the Miami Winter Music Conference 2009. "Let the Bass Kick in Miami Bitch/Girl" was released in Europe in late 2009, peaking within the top ten of the charts in the United Kingdom,[14] and within the top 20 of the charts in Belgium (Flanders) and the Netherlands. "Let the Bass Kick in Miami Bitch/Girl" peaked at number nine on the UK Singles Chart, and topped the UK Dance Singles Chart and UK Independent Singles Chart, making the United Kingdom the only territory in which "Gettin' Over You" was not LMFAO's first top ten song.

In July 2009, a compilation album of mostly clean versions of "I'm in Miami Bitch", with Miami swapped out for numerous US cities, known as "I'm in Your City Trick", was released. The album, totaling 51 tracks (including the explicit versions for San Diego ("I'm in Diego Bitch"), Las Vegas ("I'm in Las Vegas Bitch"), San Francisco ("I'm in the Bay Bitch") and Phoenix ("I'm in the Valley Bitch"), as well as the Boroughs Mix for New York, remixes for Miami and San Diego with Pitbull and a separate remix for Las Vegas), includes cities ranging in population from Los Angeles to New Bedford. Most of these versions were used by local radio stations instead of the original "I'm in Miami Trick".
In October 2011, an advert for the video game Saints Row: The Third depicts a similar variation swapping out Miami for Saint's Row. There is however no full release of this version.
