"Cooler than Me" is the debut single by American singer Mike Posner. It was released on April 16, 2010, as the lead single from his debut studio album 31 Minutes to Takeoff (2010). It reached number six on the Billboard Hot 100[3] and peaked on Billboard's Hot Dance Airplay chart on July 31, 2010. The song was produced and engineered by Gigamesh.

Two demo versions of the song exist: An acoustic pop version which features rapper and fellow Detroit native Big Sean, and a remix version parenthetically labeled "Gigamesh Remix". The latter first appeared on Posner's October 2009 mixtape One Foot Out the Door; its production is largely identical to the final song, although this version's structural arrangement is different, lacking any verses.[4]
