D. Hill continued, “Future’s part is solely produced by me. OZ, he works closely with Drake, so that was his production, along with Ambezza, a producer who is super talented. The idea of them merging two songs together, that’s something [Future and Drake] did. I sent that beat to Future months ago.

“I’m glad they merged the two songs together. That was a good collaboration opportunity, and it’s going crazy right now.”
