The song features American musician Usher and American rapper Ludacris from the group's fifth and final studio album, Crunk Juice (2004).The song was written by Lil Jon, Usher, Ludacris, and Michael Sterling. The song is featured as an R&B slow jam and consists of a piano melody and hook and contains a sample of Sterling's song of the same name.
