"Obsessed" is the debut single by American singer Addison Rae, released on March 19, 2021, through Sandlot Records.

Around Thanksgiving that year, she dropped out of Louisiana State University, where she was studying broadcast journalism, and moved to Los Angeles with her mother Sheri Nicole Easterling.

[2] Despite her success as a TikToker, a month before COVID-19 lockdown, Rae told talent managers Justin Greenberg and Joe Izzi about her desire to act, sing and dance.

In an interview with Vogue, Rae identifies Beyoncé, Jennifer Lopez, Britney Spears, and Katy Perry as musical influences.

[8] Writing for British Vogue in 2023, Amel Mukhtar described "Obsessed" as "fabulously camp" and wondered: "Was it shallow trash, or tongue-in-cheek art?

The music video, directed by Diane Martel, includes dances choreographed by Sara Biv and Calvit Hodge.

In parts of the video, Rae wore catsuits by LaQuan Smith, clothing by Mugler and a fake fur Gucci bolero.
