Songfacts®:

This six minutes long cut features 2 Chainz and Wayne each rapping two verses. It also features Drake, who previously collaborated with the Georgia spitter on his breakthough single "No Lie." 2 Chainz said on RapFix Live that it was a no-brainer for him to get in the studio again with the Toronto MC. "We just had sessions for two or three days," he said, "where me and [Drake] were just working because we felt like we had good chemistry with 'No Lie' and we're pretty cool as far as communicating."
The song was co-produced by D. Rich, who is an old partner of Jeezy collaborator Shawty Redd and teenager Wonder Arillo, who under the moniker of WondaGurl helmed "Crown" off Jay Z's Magna Carta Holy Grail album.
The song initially was heard in snippet form as part of a Beats By Dre promotional campaign.
