Background and composition
Prior to the release of "Bonnie & Clyde", Loredana signed a contract with the German subsidiary of Sony Music in September 2018 and announced the release of an upcoming single. Then, "Bonnie & Clyde" was made available for digital download and streaming on 14 September 2018. The single, with its title alluding to the American criminal couple Bonnie and Clyde, marked the first collaboration between the couple Loredana and Mozzik. The song was written by Loredana, Mozzik, Macloud (Laurin Auth) and Miksu (Joshua Allery), with the production handled by the latter two. Musically, "Bonnie & Clyde" is an uptempo hip hop and R&B-described song, which incorporates Balkan elements. Performed in German with some lyrics by Mozzik in Albanian, both rappers lyrically confess that they only are after the money.

Martin Seebacher from Red Bull complimented the song's Balkan and uptempo sounds, stating that it is a "perfect" symbiosis of "classic and hip hop".
