The lead single from the album Block Party, a snippet was debuted on October 26, 2015, during halftime on Monday Night Football. The futuristic, uptempo production was supplied by Missy Elliott's longtime collaborator, and fellow Virginia native Pharrell Williams, who also drops a verse in the song.
Some fans have been speculating if the lyrics on the hip-hop banger's hook are aimed at Miley Cyrus: The dance you doing is dumb, how they do where you from Stickin' out your tongue girl, but you know you're too young Since Missy's heyday in the 1990s, the youth have had other performers to look up to like Miley Cyrus, who is well known for both her twerking style of dancing and for sticking out her tongue.
The song samples the voice of Trayvon Martin's friend Rachel Jeantel, who can be heard throughout the song muttering the phrase "in person." The sample comes from a 2013 interview with former CNN broadcaster Piers Morgan.
