Songfacts®:

  • "Nookie" is a slang word for any kind of sexual activity, derived from Dutch neuken "to copulate with." First used in the late 1920s in Britain, Limp Bizkit's 1999 single of that name helped to popularize the term in America.
  • This trap banger finds D-Block Europe's Young Adz and Dirtbike LB rapping about "good nookie." They are joined by Atlanta-based Lil Baby, who spits a verse about how he's "married to the street" and his wealth hasn't changed him.
  • "Nookie" was Lil Baby's second collaboration of 2019 with a UK artist, following his guest spot with fellow Quality Control signee, Stefflon Don, on "Phone Down."
