The song features the "distinct trappy sound" of Kodak Black,[2] who starts the song with a triumphant verse. Gucci Mane's performance has been regarded as reminiscent of the style in his early mixtapes.[3]

Music video

The music video finds the rappers partying at night in a club, where they perform in front of a "purple-lit" crowd of fans.[2][4] They also hang out in the parking lot in front of "flashy" cars[2] and spend time in a recording studio.[4]
