This track features the late Amy Winehouse and is the pair's second posthumous collaboration to be released following Nas' contribution to the British songstress' "Like Smoke," from her Lioness: Hidden Treasures album. "It's a bittersweet feeling to do something with her now that she's not here," Nas said about the song. "I'm happy… the sweet part is that we do have the music, fans have new music from her. The bitter part is that she's no longer here to really give it to us and to really live her music and for us to see her smile and hear her voice."
The song was produced by Salaam Remi, who worked on Winehouse's Frank and Back to Black sets. A mutual friend of both artists, Remi introduced Nas to Amy.
Speaking to NME, Nas said the track came from "God, and Amy." He added: "We don't even have an explanation for how it happened. It was just magic. It just happened. It was supposed to happen. She made it happen."
