"She Don't" was written and produced by Walter "Lil' Walt" Milsap III and Candice Nelson.[2] The song samples from "We Belong Together" (1973) by American rhythm and blues vocal group The Spinners, as written by Yvette Davis.[2] Selected as the second single to be lifted from her solo debut album LeToya (2006), Luckett explained to MTV Newsin 2006 that "She Don't" was released as "a kind of a follow-up to "Torn" since we have decided to leave him alone," referencing 'the love-him-or-leave-him story line' of "Torn." She further commented: "He's got with somebody else but he's unhappy because he realizes the new girl will never be me. She won't love him, and I was loyal. You got to deal with it."[3]
Released on June 29, 2006, "She Don't" debuted at number 62 on the US Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart in late July 2006.[1] In September, over two months after the release, the song finally entered the top 20, peaking at number 17 on the chart.[1] While the single was successful on the R&B charts, it failed to chart on the Billboard Hot 100. "She Don't," however, was able to reach number two on Billboard's Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles.[4]
Luckett reteamed with Chris Robinson, director of the visuals for her previous single "Torn" (2006), to film a video for "She Don't" in Atlanta in the week of June 28, 2006.[5] Rapper Slim Thug, Luckett's ex-boyfriend, appears in this video with role as her ex-boyfriend.[5] It premiered on July 5, 2006 on BET's Access Granted and later peaked at number two on the networks's 106 & Park countdown. The video for "She Don't" was also included as an enhanced video in the Japanese Special edition of LeToya alongside "Torn".
At the start of the video Luckett arrives in a Lamborghini Gallardo. As the video progresses, Luckett direct herself away from her ex (played by Slim Thug), but then he follows her, after a brief conversation, she leaves the place, confusing his mind, then Luckett shows with dark outfit in a dark place, referring to his dreams. Then Slim Thug is seen driving a Cadillac with his current girlfriend, but it changes turning out to be Luckett. After this Luckett is shown in a bilinear gradient glass-field making sensual moves. Finally at the end of the video, all environments are shown in a lapse of time turning out to be only Slim Thug's dreams. He then gets out of bed, where his girlfriend is laying and calls up "Toya."
