Background
The composition is characterized by its sharp rhythmic dance claps, pronounced bassline of thumping 808 kick drums, and recurring ad-libs, all complemented by the presence of an air raid siren wailing in the background of the beat.[2] The remix features rapper Trina with Webstar, Young B, and Voice of Harlem.
