Background

The song's co-producer DJ Scheme said he "fought for a year to make sure this record came out some how some way". The song was the first collaboration between Scheme and Juice Wrld, alongside the unreleased track "Way Too Many". According to Scheme, the song was conceived a few days before his birthday while on tour, when Juice invited him to his hotel and asked Scheme to play a beat.[1]

Composition

The song opens with "a chilling intro", followed by, as noted by Billboard's Michael Saponara, Juice Wrld chugging the Ronny J beat "like a Red Bull and gets right to naming all of the vices that have given him trouble along with his favorite fashion brands that became a staple in his wardrobe". Juice boasts on the line "I can have my cake and eat it too", directing it to his critics who he has grown impatient with.[2]

Commercial performance

On its first day of release, the track topped the US Spotify chart and both the US and global Apple Music charts.[3] Despite never having been released as a single, "Conversations" debuted at number seven on the Billboard Hot 100. "Conversations" was one of four other songs on Legends Never Die to reach the top 10 for the week ending July 25, 2020.[4]

gollark: It made some sense in the past as some kind of crystallized "no promiscuity" law when we didn't have contraception and stuff.
gollark: In what way?
