After the song came out, Cole also praised BIA and shared details of how the collab came together. “I damn near didn’t even wanna put this clip up cuz I need everybody to hear this sh*t PURE. How I heard it! I Asked BIA to come through the studio for some whole other sh*t. First time meeting her. We chop it up. She plays me this new song she had just did. Mannnnnnn… in that moment I was blown away,” he wrote.
He continued, “I thought about this song for a month straight, it was my favorite song and I only heard it one time. She hit me recently and sent me the song (she musta knew I wanted to hear it again!!!) and I was just grateful to have it in my possession. When the thought and conversation came up about me adding a verse, I was excited but genuinely nervous cuz I didn’t even see how the song could be better after what she did to it. I didn’t want to f**k nothing up! I’m grateful I Ended up catching the right wave. Thank you @bia for having me on this record with you, love this sh*t and love your energy and spirit.”
