Babyface wasn’t just making jams for folks in the 80s and 90s now! He has teamed up with Beyoncé a few times (including for the song “Broken-Hearted Girl” for the I Am…Sasha Fierce album), and to help write this song, he collaborated with the singer and talented songwriters Patrick “J. Que” Smith (main songwriter), Symbolyc One, Caleb McCambpell, Antonio Dixon, and Shea Taylor. He also helped produce this track for the 4 album. Though it took a while for people to warm up to the song, it did pretty well around the world, peaking at number 16 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number four on the R&B charts. It also went platinum in Sweden and Australia.
