On the day of release, Moneybagg Yo spoke to Eddie Francis on Apple Music 1 about the song:

Anytime me and Kodak link up, there be chemistry… it be good. I wanted to come with a different tempo than "Lower Level", the other joint we have. It took us probably like two weeks to do it… when we went in there and did it… it came out good… I'm excited about the track… I feel like it's the warmup." Composition
Over piano-laden production, Moneybagg Yo and Kodak Black rap about topics such as their path to stardom, loyalty, surviving during times of struggle, staying focused on earning money, and "repping their cities". Kodak promises to do his baby mama better, while Moneybagg reveals how his girlfriend Ari Fletcher wants to have a child with him but he is too busy with making money and does not believe the timing is right, as well as going back to drinking lean. Music video
The music video was directed by Young Chang. It sees the rappers performing on a rooftop, while a storyline follows a man seeking revenge after a fight during a dice game, resulting in a murder. It is then revealed that after being stopped by a loved one, the man chooses to retaliate with his fists instead of a gun. The visual also shows a child's hair being done. Charts
