Ed Sheeran revealed the song name on 20 May 2019, crossing out the two featured artists' names, challenging fans to guess who they were. He hinted at the featured artists by wearing a Chance the Rapper hat and a PnB Rock backpack.[4][5] He also gave a clue of the release date by stating that he had "more new stuff" coming soon.[6]
PnB Rock's vocals are included via sampling of his song "Pressure" from the album Catch These Vibes, specifically from the audiotape of a 2017 XXL video in which he gave a freestyled performance of "Pressure".[7] A music video focusing on the lyrics was released on 21 June 2019.[8]
