The song was designed a breakout hit for Akon, something that could shape the future of his personal life and widely successful musical career.

"[2] Knobody produced an alternate of the song, featuring Styles P, which appears as both a B-side on the single and as a bonus track on the UK version of the album.

In 2004, T-Pain sampled the song in a parody recording "I'm Fucked Up", which became a main factor in him getting signed to Konvict Kartel.

New Zealand rapper Savage appears on a remix on the song that was later included on his debut album, Moonshine, in 2005.

[3] Another remix featuring Styles and British rapper Taz was included on the UK version of Trouble.
