The track became Vassy's eleventh charted single in the United States on Billboard's Dance Club Songs chart, as well as her eighth charted single at Dance/Mix Show Airplay, where it reached number 5 in December 2019, her highest on the latter so far.

[1] In an interview with Billboard's Dance Chart Upstarts, Vassy noted that "'Trouble' is a song about taking risks in life, about not being afraid to attract a little trouble...

She went further to add that "I wanted to create a song that embodies an uplifting tone with a little bit of attitude to encourage my fans to take chances and not be afraid of the rejections that they may encounter in life.

It's a nice balance of pop-leaning dance with a fusion of EDM drops, yet embracing a more traditional songwriting style.

I wanted to embellish and embody all the different musical elements that make up who I am today as an artist.
