The song was produced by KC Supreme, Taz Taylor and Charlie Handsome.

It is his first charting single on the US 'Billboard' Hot 100, and peaked at number 17. On January 15, 2020, a music video was released.
Background and composition
The song was conceived in "a matter of hours" during Daniel's first studio session with record producer Taz Taylor, whose record label, Internet Money, Daniel was previously signed to with Alamo and Interscope in July 2018. Daniel recalls that they attempted to add a second verse to the song, but decided against it, because "the energy just wasn't the same". The rough cut was released as the official song.
Music video
