The record is about being comfortable in a relationship and people saying, “Nobody’s gonna take my man away from me because that’s my man.” I definitely think I can relate to that and being confident in a relationship.

It’s so hard nowadays to be so confident. Everyone feels like being insecure is the way to go and so it’s basically me being able to say, “Hey, if you’re in a relationship and you feel confident, you have to show it.”

Whenever I put songs out, I want to make sure they’re relatable to my fans. We all go through relationships and it’s about being able to show the world you’re confident in your man and nobody can take him from you.

We recorded the song and we needed a feature. We started naming people and we all agreed Kendrick Lamar was it. I was in shock when his name came up because he was busy working on his own album. I felt like I wasn’t anybody yet and there was no way he was going to hop on my song and he did and it still feels like a dream.

We had so much fun. When we did the video it was a two-day shoot. We shot my main parts during the day.

The music video wasn’t really a big concept it was more about the lifestyle. You see my guy on the basketball court and then you see me in a big studio with a bunch of basketball hoops on the floor. You have me in the car with my boyfriend and then you have me and Kendrick in front of a car.

All of these things were about bringing lifestyles together and showing both sides of them.

Check out the music video:
