Produced by Mike Will Made It, the song was released to iTunes on May 8, 2012, and based on digital downloads was able to debut in the top 50 on the Billboard Hot 100.

[1][2] Billboard commented on the track by saying "...'No Lie' recalls Lil Wayne's recent 'She Will' single when Drake steps in to slow things down on the chorus, but 2 Chainz sounds hungrier than his counterpart here, steamrolling over the beat and slinging weak rhymes.

2 Chainz' voice is silent on the track for about a minute and 40 seconds as Drake struts into focus, and while the Canadian superstar gamely handles his assignment, the listener misses Chainz' urgency until he returns, possessed, for the third verse.

[4] The song debuted at number 46 on the Billboard Hot 100 based on digital downloads alone.

[8] Many artists took part in freestyling this track including, Lil Wayne, Wiz Khalifa, Roscoe Dash and King Los.
