Montana spoke of the collaboration during an interview on Beats 1: "You know Diplo, he's one of the best at what he do, and it just so happened that he had this beat that he was working on. And me and Lil Pump had us doing the 'Gucci Gang' remix and he played it for me and the way everything came together it was just magic."[1][2]
Composition
"Welcome to the Party" is an uptempo dubstep and trap song,[3][4] which sees Diplo returning to the pre-dubstep era of EDM for the production.[5][6] It bears a resemblance to TNGHT's song "R U Ready", which was sampled by Kanye West on his 2013 song "Blood on the Leaves".[7] Lyrically, Montana compares the size of his cash flow to human behemoth and NBA player Shaquille O'Neal in the opening verse. Pump raps about his newfound luxurious lifestyle and money spending habits.[8]
Music video
The accompanying music video shows an animated version of Deadpool performing popular dance crazes including twerking, BlocBoy JB's "shoot" dance and flossing in front of a blue-gray backdrop.[9][3] The animation was also included in a Snapchat lens which can be activated by selecting Deadpool's logo.[10][11]
