Missy Elliott, who produced the song alongside Timbaland, responded on Twitter and told fans,

“Funfact when I was in the booth singing this my engineer had the music to low so I was telling him to turn it up but Aaliyah thought I meant to do it so she sung it like i did on the demo but it was a mistake  but she loved it  so we kept it like that”

The 50-year-old rapper continued to give more details and said,

“And since Babygirl loved the mistake I told Jimmy the engineer to keep raising the music on the track everytime she say turn it up so it would make sense to the listeners so y’all wouldn’t think we was crazy  this skit is d*** near what happened tho.”

Many fans thanked the rapper for giving more insight into the late singer’s hit song.
