He named the track as one of his favourite songs from the LP, explaining, "This is song reiterates the message that no man should ever harass, assault, rape or have access to a woman or anyone without their consent. Around the time I made this song, there were so many cases of rape and sexual violence in Nigeria as well as across the world and it inspired me to speak on it. I have been blessed with a huge platform and it's only right I lend my voice to crucial topics like this because it is a major issue that we need to fix. Women should not be afraid to exist just because of their gender, it is already heartbreaking that they have to take extra precautions on a daily basis to protect themselves".
He continued, when asked why he wanted to address the topic, "Consent is a topic that a lot of people still need to be educated on. Just because you are attracted to someone it doesn't mean that they must reciprocate, no one is entitled to anyone else's body. I decided to make music addressing it because it's an effective way of passing on a message. I read an article the other day that 40% of South African women will get raped in their lifetime, it made me mad and sick to my stomach. This is a major issue that should be addressed and tackled severely because it should never be something anyone should turn a blind eye to"."Joeboy". 1883 Magazine. 4 February 2021.
