Songfacts®:

  • "Parking Lot" is the first single released for Mustard's Faith of a Mustard Seed album. The track features Travis Scott at the mic, weaving a tale of enjoying a woman's intimate company in a parking lot. But it's not all sex talk; La Flame also throws in some introspective lines, reflecting on his roots back in Missouri City, Texas.
  • This collaboration marks a reunion for Mustard and Scott. They previously teamed up on the 2016 hip-house standalone single "Whole Lotta Lovin'."
  • "Parking Lot" incorporates a chopped-up vocal sample looped throughout the track. Though the chipmunk soul snippet is a departure from Mustard's usual production style, he still manages to infuse the sample with a West Coast vibe.
  • While Mustard steers the ship as producer, he's joined by three other beatmakers: Nic Nac, Keanu Beats, and Farmer.
  • Mustard teased the song on Instagram before its release in a video showing the LA producer trying to get Scott in the studio, saying, "I found the one. I need you, bruh. 'Whole Lotta Lovin" times 30."
