This samples Michael Jackson's 1983 hit "P.Y.T (Pretty Young Thing)," which was produced by Quincy Jones. As a result the legendary producer gets a credit on this song, which is fitting as the first time the full song was performed by West was during the Recording Academy's Leadership Award Ceremony for Quincy Jones on July 28, 2007.
Rapper and songwriter T-Pain is featured on this track.
West paraphrases a line from 50 Cent's "In Da Club" when he raps, "50 told me, go 'head switch the style up, and if they hate, then let 'em hate, and watch the money pile up." The two Hip Hop stars had a chart battle when they both released albums on September 11, 2007, which came to a head when 50 Cent vowed to retire if West outsold him during their debut week. West later admitted it was all a marketing ploy.
