White was first involved with Q-Tip when he brought him out to perform "That Black Bat Licorice" during a show at Madison Square Garden, then performed "Excursions" by A Tribe Called Quest on January 31, 2015.[4][3]
The production of "Hi-De-Ho" began when White first heard it on the radio, and enjoyed it so much that he had the idea of sampling Calloway's scatting along with a drumbeat. He later invited Q-Tip to be part of the production.[2][3]
It was uploaded on White's YouTube channel and released on digital download and streaming on March 3, 2022. A limited edition 7-inch tri-color single paired with A-side, "Queen of the Bees" is available exclusively at Third Man Records Cass Corridor Detroit on April 9, 2022, to promote White's fifth studio album Entering Heaven Alive, released on July 22, along with his Supply Chain Issues Tour.[1]
