They Don't Give (Commentary)

Oh, my gosh! This song is absolutely incredible, uhm
There were couple of different levels to this song
At first, Salaam Remi, uh, who executive produced this entire album with me, uhm, played me the track
And Babyface was on it, just kind of doing a demo, was-, it was really raw
The only thing that I remember hearing that stood out to me was: "They don't give an F about us"
And that really struck me because I was like, "Hey", that's-, you know, there's something there

So, Salaam reached out to Babyface and said, "Hey, do you remember this song?"
And, you know, a few weeks later we ended up being in the studio together
So, the fact that I have a song on my record, uhm, with Babyface
Like being able to co-write with Babyface and Salaam himself
I mean, it was it was a dream come true for me, uhm

But the song is basically about somebody who's in a relationship
And when they're with that person, the world is-
Everything is great, like things are good, like they know what they have when they're together
And even though nobody else understands, because they don't give an-, give an F about them
And they don't know a thing about love, like we're good
As long as we have each other, we're gonna be alright
Uhm, and I know a lot of people can relate to that, so
Ooh! I hope you enjoy this
