• This was released as the second single by Jay Sean from his Neon album. However, after it failed to make the Hot 100, it was omitted from the final tracklisting. The song was penned by the singer with Jared Cotter. Former American Idol contestant Cotter also co-penned Sean's hit tunes "Down" and "Do You Remember."
• The Dutch music producer and DJ Afrojack produced the song. Sean told MTV News that the track came together after the artists ran into each other in the studio. "The Afrojack thing was great how that happened," Jay told MTV News. "He was working in the same studio that I was in when I was recording the album, and I happened to bump into him. We recognized each other, so we checked out. He played me a couple of his songs; I played him a couple of my songs. We were like, 'Yo, let's do something together.'"
  
  "The song 'So High' is just ridiculous. Afrojack is such an amazing producer," he continued. "Again, he lives in the clubs. He knows what works. So when it comes to actually producing, he knows what's gonna have an impact in the club."
