The song peaked at number 70 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.[2]
The beat is a simple production. In all, it includes three stabs in various pitches, pizzicato strings, repetitive hi-hats, open high hats, 808 claps, 808 bass drums, and a Lil' Keke sample "Aye I got to work my wood grain wheel// Trunk steady bumpin', grills steady commin'" which ties the track together.
The beat was actually reworked for official radio and internet play. Another sound was added to the main melody to give it a more "brass" kind of feel. Slim Thug is known for having brass instruments in his beats.[citation needed]
