Songfacts®:

  • The Turks and Caicos Islands are two groups of tropical islands in the Atlantic Ocean just southeast of the Bahamas. The islands, known for their pristine beaches and turquoise waters, are a popular tourist destination.

    In this song, Rod Wave meets a hot lady. He sparks a conversation and suggests a last-minute getaway to the Turks and Caicos Islands with her friends.
  • On the hook, Wave enjoys the company of women around the globe.

    Girls, girls, girls, girls, girls all over the world
    She's a vibe and her friend's a vibe and we 'bout to have some fun
    Bad bitches 'round the world, better grab you one, oh


    The chorus loosely interpolates and borrows lyrics from "Girls, Girls, Girls" from JAY-Z's 2001 album The Blueprint.
  • 21 Savage keeps the story rolling in the second verse. He's all about that young life, chilling with different women, no checklist in sight. Savage's vibe is that of a smooth lover, taking care of the deets, showing love and reassurance. The rapper enjoys living it up in the digital age, whether it's streaming on Roku or just keeping it real.
  • Wave and 21 Savage co-wrote the song with its producer Ade. Philip "Ade" Adetumbi is a Washington, DC-based artist and producer who's also collaborated with the likes of Logic, Wale, Asher Roth and Eric Bellinger.
