In the first part of the song, the Tay Keith-produced instrumental that interpolates BlocBoy JB's "Look Alive", while Eminem imitates the flow of Migos' "Bad and Boujee".[4] The second beat was produced by Ronny J. The song disses rapper Machine Gun Kelly, who called Eminem's daughter, Hailie Jade, "hot as fuck" in 2012. At the time, Kelly was 22 and Hailie was 16.[5][6] The song features co-production by Cubeatz.
