It was credited as Akelle Charles featuring Haile and Louis Rei, and was due to be released as the first single from the trio's EP, Western Union. However, the three artists adopted the collective name WSTRN following the song's popularity, and re-branded the song with a new video following its signing to Atlantic Records.
