Background
When asked about the collaboration, 50 Cent, in an interview with Angie Martinez, said: "I was just looking at him as an artist and I said he sounds good, and I thought he was a dope artist, so I said I'mma do it and we did the song, and then it took off. It made sense to me from an artist's perspective," he continued. "What I have now, the luxury of being in a secure space financially, is me having the ability to make decisions based on just the art."
Several media outlets falsely claim the song was produced by Tennessee producer Drumma Boy.
Music video
The official music video was shot in Los Angeles by director Colin Tilley on November 23, 2010 and was released on December 15, 2010. A 3D music video was released on 50 Cent's blog. The video begins in a club where a woman is dancing with an umbrella while dancing in front of the speakers. Meanwhile, Jeremih is seen on a chair while a woman is dancing beside him and also another woman is seen dancing while jamming her guitar. During the rap verse, 50 Cent is seen rapping his verse through a hole in the wall which is revealed to be a bar. Then, Jeremih and 50 Cent are seen separated in a rectangular wall while Jeremih sings the song. At the end of the video, Jeremih and 50 Cent stare at the camera while the video fades.
