Background

The song was teased for months on social media and featured a different cover art prior to its official release in August. Then girlfriend Khloé Kardashian is featured on the right side of the official cover art. The song makes a few allusions to the novel The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, namely the phrase "Don't Panic", repeated throughout the song, and star and planet imagery in the first verse.

A music video for the song directed by Eif Rivera was shot on July 9, 2014. It was released on August 13, 2014.[2] The video features Montana's now ex-girlfriend Khloé Kardashian.[3]

gollark: Ah, the forums and their joys.
gollark: Hmm. Possibly. But that'd be a lot of moderator work.
gollark: Not great when there are multiple parallel discussions, plus there's no way for stuff people like to be more visible.
gollark: I've always thought that forums were poorly structured for most conversation anyway - you just put text into linear things and quote people usually.
gollark: Inconsistency is important - memorizing the differences between countless weirdnesses is a waste of development time.
