The song was originally recorded in Jamaica where True, a porn star, had been appearing in a television commercial. An attempted coup prevented her from leaving the country with her wages from the commercial. Resourcefully, True called on Gregg Diamond to come down to Jamaica to write and record the song with her.

According to the Hudson Valley newspaper the Daily Freeman, disco artist Andrea True died November 7 at a hospital in Kingston, New York. She was 68. The cause of death is unknown.
