Spicy (Ty Dolla Sign song)

In an Instagram post, Ty Dolla Sign wrote about his collaboration with Post Malone on the song:

You know, that magic that only that person could bring to the song. And "Spicy" was no different. This song needed Post's frequency. Plus, we were overdue for another hit after "Psycho." I'm just grateful that he lent his frequency to this song because we DEFINITELY got another one on our hands. Shout out to my brother Posty!^[5]

The song features a "hypnotic and lively" instrumental,^[6] with a "heavy low end groove topped with swirling synths and a delicate acoustic guitar loop".^[7] In "hazy" vocals,^[7] Ty Dolla Sign and Post Malone "sing-rap horny strip-club stuff."^[6]
