Background


Gucci Mane premiered the song on Beats 1 on September 13, 2017, as a promotional single for his album Mr. Davis. He told Zane Lowe, "I'm a huge fan and I respect the Weeknd and whole team of XO. We exchanged numbers and started build a rapport with each other. And we were bouncing off records; I'll send him records, he'll send me beats. And then one day he sent me this record that Nav produced. It was like an early birthday gift or Christmas present."[1]


Composition


The song has been described as "hypnotic"[2] and is about the artists' "playboy lifestyles".[3] The Weeknd performs the first verse and chorus, singing about charming women and briefly spending time with them "before curving with no mercy".[4] Gucci Mane raps about his high reputation enthralling women in the second verse.[2][4]
