Song information
The song was written by Beenie Man and produced by award-winning duo the Neptunes. It was released as a single on 15 July 2002 peaking inside the top 20 and 30 of several countries. It spent 12 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 peaking at number 28. It also peaked at number nine on the UK Singles Chart, becoming Jackson's 17th top ten single and last one to date. Jackson set the record for having the most top ten singles for a solo artist without reaching number one. The song appeared in the Japan-only radio promo sampler We Love Janet in 2006. It was also used as a DJ interlude on Jacksons 2015–2016 Unbreakable World Tour and her 2017 State of the World Tour.

In 2004, Jackson expressed her regret for the duet, saying "If I had known that (he was associated with homophobia), I would not have worked with him. It's shocking to me. We're on the same label, so I should have known. But at the same time, I wish someone from the company would have told me, knowing how... I feel about the gay community."

Music video
The music video was directed by Dave Meyers. Set on an island beach, it depicts different characters in their daily life with Jackson and Beenie Man on the beach enjoying the surroundings and different activities around them. Towards the end, Beenie Man pulls in a four-wheeler near Janet and begins to eye him with binoculars. The video ends with a party that was mentioned in the song. The video was filmed on Westward Beach in Malibu, California.
