Dave delivers a rap verse nearing the end of the track while proving his versatility in a melodic state at the start. The track sees to be "demonstrating [Dave's] ability to seamlessly blend genres" and "despite the language barrier, [Tiakola's] contribution harmoniously merges with Santan’s style". The artists mix in English and French in each of their parts while also adding Pidgin into it.

The official music video was filmed in several locations such as Paris, London and New York while both artists are wearing and promoting the popular British streetwear brand, Corteiz.
