The song was scheduled to be the second single released from Bow Wow's fifth album The Price of Fame but the decision was changed to "Outta My System".

The remix of "I'm a Flirt" became the first single from R. Kelly's album Double Up and peaked at #12 on the Billboard Hot 100.

This was explained in Michael Paoletta's "Inside Track" column in the March 3, 2007, print edition of the magazine:[1] Versions of the song have been recorded by both Bow Wow and R. Kelly.

Due to the similar characteristics of each song, the plays for both versions will be totalled under one chart listing.

"I'm a Flirt" first appeared on Bow Wow's Columbia/Sony Music album 'The Price of Fame' as a bonus hidden track.
