Songfacts®:

  • Big Boi doesn't believe in coincidences, but his collaboration with Snoop Dogg on this Boomiverse track was obviously meant to be. The Outkast rapper explained:

    "When I first recorded the album, on the first song I worked on, I thought, 'Snoop would sound so good on here.'"

    "Then just as I was about to turn the album in he did a listening party at my studio. It was organized at the last minute so I had to be somewhere else, but my engineer called me and said, 'Snoop is here and wants to do a song with you.'"

    "I got him to play that first track and Snoop went, 'I'm not leaving until I've finished this one.'"
