The single features vocals from Pharrell Williams, who co-produced the song with Chad Hugo under their production team The Neptunes.

Common uses an interpolation from Gil Scott-Heron's song "No Knock" at the end of his first verse.

The music video, directed by Hype Williams, premiered on October 6, 2008 on Common's official YouTube account.

The music video features Common in black and white clothes with a metal background.

Pharrell, wearing a white Billionaire Boys Club T-shirt, is featured in the video, although his head is replaced with a robot skull.
