Songfacts®:

  • This song features the English Hip-Hop duo Rizzle Kicks. "The great thing about all the final features and versions (on Nextlevelism) is that they all came about in a fateful kind of way," Fresh told The Independent. "I heard Rizzle Kicks when I was with them in Ibiza on stage and saw (Rizzle Kicks member) Jordan vibing and using his voice in a way I hadn't heard on his records. It gave me an idea for a track I'd been working on and they were also excited about it."
