==Musical composition==
Cassie spoke to The Harbour Agency about the song:<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.theharbouragency.com/artist-profile/cassie-davis |title=The Harbour Agency: Cassie Davis |accessdate=2009-04-12 |url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20090528234408/http://www.theharbouragency.com/artist-profile/cassie-davis |archivedate=28 May 2009 }}</ref>
<blockquote> "The song is such a fusion", "It’s urban in the verses and then the chorus rocks out a bit. There are even some punk bits in the bridge too. "Like many of my other songs, I started this one in my studio and I wasn’t thinking about genre or a song to match the others. It was just what I was feeling at the time so there are a lot of different vibes in it but you can still sing along". </blockquote>

There are many scenes in which Cassie and her dancers perform to energetic choreography. Gymnastics is also used in one part of the video.
