I am nominating this article for deletion because it shows a lack of notability per WP:NSONGS. A song charting or not doesn't give the status of notability.

1) Its coverage comes from only album reviews, one sentence per each.

2) Interview with the producers and management that could fall under the "other self-interested parties advertise or speak about the work" umbrella

3) The same goes for the Tyga post as he is featured guest on the track. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 22:49, 31 March 2021 (UTC)

Keep: has multiple reliable sources talking about the song   The Ultimate Boss (talk) 22:52, 31 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Those are all self-promotion because its Tyga (a featured artists) making posts about the song, so its an interested third party. See third point. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 22:56, 31 March 2021 (UTC)
 * It is still being covered by sources, which leads to notability. Vulture, in particular, is a reliable source which discusses the song and a controversy around it for about half of the (small) article. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 14:25, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
 * It's still third party coverage because what he's talking about is the song. And it's content written by the sources too, it's not just a repost or an interview. I don't think you can handwave these away like that. Sergecross73   msg me  17:32, 7 April 2021 (UTC)
 * MarioSoulTruthFan I have found another reliable source The Times of India ShootForTheStars (talk) 18:00, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
 * It just shows the lyrics of the song. What kind of source is that? MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 18:13, 16 April 2021 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Redirect to Shoot for the Stars, Aim for the Moon per nom. Not enough independent sources to meet WP:NSONG. SBKSPP (talk) 01:30, 10 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. Seems to sufficiently satisfy WP:NSONG in terms of charting and coverage. I'm not sure where others expect information regarding the song's background, songwriting, and recording are supposed to come from other than the subjects directly involved in the song. ✗  plicit  06:10, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
