Songfacts®:

  • Here, Travis Scott joins Drake and 21 Savage to detail the life of a superstar rapper. Basically, it entails lots of sex and copious amounts of cash, with the former profiting from the latter.
  • Drake kicks off "Pussy & Millions" with the hook. It alludes to the hip-hop adage said best by The Notorious B.I.G on "Mo Money Mo Problems." Drake figures that if making loads of stacks means more responsibilities, then bring on the problems.
  • Drake previously referenced the concept on his 2011 Take Care track, "The Ride."

    They say more money more problems, my n---a don't believe it.
    I mean, sure, there's some bills and taxes I'm still evading
  • Drake alludes to one of these problems in his verse; the difficulty of finding true love when you're a multi-millionaire superstar.
  • Both 21 and Scott stick to the song's thesis in their bars: they love their wealthy lifestyle. During his verse 21 emphasizes the sexual benefits his riches bring.
  • Drake and 21 Savage recorded "Pussy & Millions" for their collaborative studio album Her Loss. The song title sums up the main idea behind the project.
  • "Pussy & Millions" is the lone track on Drake and 21 Savage's Her Loss album with a featured artist.
  • Both Drake and 21 had worked with Scott before on four previous occasions; Drake on "Company," "Portland," "Sicko Mode" and "Fair Trade"; 21 on "Outside," "NC-17," "Out For the Night, Pt. 2," and "Ghostface Killers."
  • Cheeze Beatz, Go Grizzly, Squat Beats, B100 and Lil Yachty created the beat. Lil Yachty also supplied additional vocals for the track.
  • Lil Yachty not only has multiple credits on Her Loss but also suggested the album art. Paris Arden took the photo that features adult dancer and model Quiana "Qui" Yasuka in the late 2010s. Yachty discovered it and successfully proposed it as the cover art.
