Background

The song was initially titled "Got 'Em Like" and the hook was originally sung by Banks himself. In an interview with Lloyd, the R&B crooner had this to say about working with Banks.[2]

There was no hesitation on my part because we never had direct issues... We met for the first time in the studio and everything just clicked. It felt like it was our 10th song together.

This is referring to the rivalry between G-Unit, which Lloyd Banks is signed to, and Murder Inc., which Lloyd was formerly signed to.

After inking his new deal with EMI Group, EMI Label Services’ began promoting “Any Girl,” at Urban and Rhythmic radio formats in North America.[3]

Music video

The music video, which was directed by J. Jesses Smith, was filmed on July 28, 2010 in Long Island and later released on August 15, 2010. The concept of the video was inspired by the 1997 comedy film, Def Jam's How to Be a Player. It also features cameo appearances from Banks' G-Unit cohorts Tony Yayo and 50 Cent, and American model and actress, Marica Linn.[4][5]

gollark: Well, they seem to have tried to do that initially for a bit, then gave up (at least for my year), leaving us doing something like two lessons a week but being set a bunch of random papers to do (which I mostly ignored because they are extremely boring).
gollark: I'm glad school is over for me now and I can avoid worrying about them doing stupid things.
