Released as her second single on 23 September 2022 through Sony, the song was written after Venbee had a dream of Jesus partying on Chatham High Street, and used him as a metaphor for her friend's struggles with drugs.

Explaining himself to Music Week, Fable noted that they created the song to a guitar part that Cinti had written, that they wrote the song "I heard Jesus did cocaine on a night out" first before coming up with the rest of the hook, that Venbee would suggest lines which they would then lyricise such as "his eyes are dilated" becoming "eyes wide open, dilated, but he’s fine now", and that they had compiled a list of religious phrases and stories and a list of ways in which Jesus could be described, with "leader" turning into "leader, never backs out of the arrangement".

[17] According to Fable, he converted the song into a track that could be played "at a rave or in a club" after sending it backwards and forwards several times, during which they rearranged some sections and scrapped one of them to give it "more of a bite".

[19] On 30 September 2022, an edited version of the song was released, with the opening lyric amended to "I heard my mate lost his mind on a night out"; in a November interview with George FM, Goddard.

[17] A further version was released in November 2022 featuring ArrDee, which further explored the party and made reference to living large and "Seshlehem", a portmanteau of sesh and Bethlehem;[20] in an interview with Clash, Venbee noted that this had been booked without her knowledge, and that she only found out once he was in studio recording it after her A&R texted her to that effect.

[34] In October 2023,[23] the song appeared on Venbee's mixtape Zero Experience, along with "Low Down", "Rampage", which had also been co-written by Fable and Cinti, and "ME4 (Council Estate)", which was also co-credited to Goddard.
