Before the song, each artist had collaborated with each other in the past.

Belly and Young Thug have teamed up once before, on the former's track, "Consuela" alongside Moroccan-American rapper Zack, released in 2016. The Weeknd and Young Thug have also united once prior to "Better Believe", on the remix of the former's single, "Reminder" alongside American rapper ASAP Rocky, released in 2017.

Music video
A music video for the song was released to Belly's YouTube channel alongside the song on July 22, 2021. The "glossy, action-packed music video" was directed by Christian Breslauer. The video is the one of two parts, and it includes self-driving expensive cars.
