Background

The instrumental was first used by rapper T.I. for a freestyle on his mixtape, Down With The King. Jeezy ended up using the beat for his album. After, an extended version of the album version leaked online featuring Jeezy's original 3 verses, in addition to new verses by Jay-Z and Fat Joe. The official single version used Jay-Z's verse from the extended version that leaked earlier, with the first and third verse from Jeezy's original album version. It is rumored Fat Joe was removed due to the tensions between himself and Jay-Z. Later pressings of Jeezy's album replaced the original album version of the song with the single version.
