Songfacts®:

  • A solitaire diamond is a piece of jewelry with a single rock. The solitary diamond gemstone is typically heavier in carat weight than diamonds set in different fashions on other rings or necklaces. Here, Future boasts about his "solitary diamonds, solitary jewels" to show how wealthy he is.
  • Travis Scott joins Future on the track, which finds the pair flexing about the top range fashion brands and cars they can afford. They are not short of female attention either; while Future talks about "playing the field," Scott references bedroom frolics with his "wifey," media personality Kylie Jenner, who is the mother of his child.
  • Previous collaborations between the pair include Future jumping on two Scott tracks in 2015, "High Fashion" and "3500." La Flame later appeared on Hendrix's January 2019 cut, "First Off."
  • Atlanta beatmaker Wheezy came up with the fast-paced trap instrumental. Frequent Kanye West collaborator Mike Dean supplied additional production.
