The track was produced by Drumma Boy and was released for digital download on September 2, 2008. The song peaked at eighty four on the Billboard Hot 100 and at number ninety seven Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart when it first leaked into Internet. The song is a direct diss to Shawty Lo. The video had made its way to iTunes, BET's 106 & Park, & MTV.
The music video for this track premiered on Streetcred.com on September 12, 2008. It was officially released for download on iTunes on September 16, 2008.
The video directed by Kai Crawford dissed Shawty Lo in many scenes, and was shot in his neighborhood. The video also shows toward the end T.I. & others doing the dance to "Dey Know".
The Music Video has a cameo appearance near the end of a relatively unknown Meek Mill who had just signed with Grand Hustle.
