This song finds Minaj, Drake and Lil Wayne bragging about their many accomplishments. Weezy's contribution arose from a change of thinking. Said the Young Money Queen: "Drake and I were originally going to go back and forth on third verse but I really wanted an iconic YM moment with the three of us."
Nineteen85's deep house-style beat samples English producer Maya Jane Coles' 2010 track "What They Say." N85 told Billboard magazine that he encountered Coles' tune by chance. "I found 'What They Say' on what I call the right side of YouTube," he recalled. "That right column of YouTube that just keeps suggesting more songs for you to listen to. As soon as I heard it, I knew I had to change up the rhythm to make it bounce more." The producer is affiliated with Drake's label, OVO Sound and the beat came together during the Nothing Was The Same sessions in 2012. "I've really got to give Drake the credit," N85 explained. "We had been talking about something that had that kind of energy to close out the album, so he started recording it right away, but we didn't finish it in time."
The song is a bonus track on the iTunes Store version of The Pinkprint.
