Background

Speaking in February 2008 to UK R&B writer Pete Lewis of the award-winning Blues & Soul

, Cruz explained the reasons for the single's club influence: "Because lately I've been going to clubs where they play a lot of electro, it's definitely got a bit of that vibe in there. But, while some people might associate that driving beat with house and dance music, I've also noticed how Timbaland's latest productions on Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears have these new beats with a four-to-the-floor drum pattern too. So, because I think that's where R&B is going, I basically went in that direction while adding an English techno edge that the Americans wouldn't even know about." The music video features Cruz in a very slow car chase. Luciana also makes a guest appearance in the video.
