The song’s central hook—"feeling so fly like a G6"—was born from a search for a rhyme.
The track is built on a "minimal but punchy" bassline and hypnotic, processed vocals.
Producers The Cataracs (David Singer-Vine and Niles "KSHMR" Hollowell-Dhar) were looking for a rhyme for the line "Sippin' sizzurp in my ride, like Three 6 " (a nod to Three 6 Mafia).
It follows the group (Kev Nish, Prohgress, J-Splif, and DJ Virman) through a night of "popping bottles in the ice like a blizzard" at various clubs and house parties.
The serves as a snapshot of early-2010s "recession pop" nightlife.
The video concludes with the group and their collaborators boarding a private jet, visually cementing the high-flying lifestyle described in the lyrics. Cultural Impact
The iconic hook features a sample of DEV's vocals from her previous song "Booty Bounce," also produced by The Cataracs.
They chose "G6" as a fictional "flyer" successor to the Gulfstream IV (the "G4") frequently referenced by rappers like Drake.
