Songfacts®:

  • This song finds B.o.B thugging hard as he responds to his haters, telling them they can't shut him down. The track is believed by some to be a response to all those who opposed Obama being re-elected to his second term in office.
  • B,O.B's fellow Southern rappers T.I. and Juicy J jump in with a verse each where they outline their success in the game and brag about their luxury cars.
  • The song initially appeared on B.o.B's ninth mixtape, F--k 'Em We Ball, which was released on November 15, 2012. It was later dropped on January 8, 2013 as the first single from Underground Luxury, climbing to #64 on the Hot 100.
  • B.O.B. explained to Rolling Stone the meaning of his album title: "To me, 'underground luxury' is kinda like a contrasting title and the reason for that is because on this album I plan on introducing to people and reintroducing to people the side of me that they didn't see on the first album," he said. "On that album, I didn't really show my underground side and I didn't really tell my story as much and as vividly as I'm telling it now."

    "Telling a story isn't always a linear thing that involves going from point A to point B -- it's about putting myself back in a mind state to when I was struggling and when I had to really go out of my way to make ends meet when I was coming out of high school and really struggling," B.O.B added. "It's really like a retelling of the story from a different perspective."
