Background

edit

Jessie Murph started promoting the song on June 16, 2023 via her TikTok account. Jessie Murph and Jelly Roll then performed the song at the latter's concert on September 21, 2023, in Austin, Texas. They then began promoting the song collectively on social media up until its release.[1]

Composition

edit

The song blends elements of country and hip hop music. It uses a hip-hop beat including jangly acoustic guitar samples. In the choruses and her verse, Jessie Murph talks about the type of people she finds attractive and describes them as "wild ones" that would have “a .45 on ‘em” and be driving recklessly at 102 mph. Jelly Roll combines singing and rapping while his lyrics focus on his wife, Bunnie XO, whom he also mentions by name in his verse.[1]
