It was released as the second out of three tracks from Drake's fourth extended play, Scary Hours 2, through Republic Records and OVO Sound, on March 5, 2021.

Drake wrote the song alongside producers Cardo, Dez Wright, and 40.

[2][3] The song serves as the fourth collaboration between Drake and Lil Baby, following 2018's collaborative singles "Yes Indeed" and "Never Recover", the latter alongside Gunna, plus the two artists' features alongside DaBaby on the remix of Future's 2020 single "Life Is Good", in which Drake is also featured on the original version.

[4] Drake and West's feud has been dating back to multiple issues starting from around 2010.

[5] Jordan Rose of Variety felt that "Lil Baby steals the show" with "Drake taking a back seat after delivering a verse with a purposefully offbeat flow as Lil Baby takes over in the second act and absolutely bodies his guest appearance" and the song "was just a Lil Baby exposition, with the Atlanta rapper proving that he still has plenty in the tank after scorching 2020".
