It was the first single released for his debut studio album, Love/Hate.[1] The song was released by Def Jam Recordings, whose label-heads signed The-Dream following the success of the single he wrote for their artist Shareefa — "Need a Boss".[2] The track contains a guest verse from labelmate Fabolous, while songwriting and production handled by The-Dream alongside longtime collaborator Rodney Jerkins.
