She’s hotter than me, but I’m funnier. So I’m going for a rap Grammy, and I’d like to take you along with me.’ It was this long email, and he wrote back right away and just said, ‘Okay.'”

And apparently, just four days later, he emailed the track to her inbox.

Pink elaborated on how their collaboration came about during an interview on UK's Lorraine. She said:
I reached out to him in this case. I love him. I've always loved him. I think he's a lyrical genius. And, I just wrote him a love letter... I wrote him an email, and I said, 'I love you. I've always loved you. I've loved you since you gave me your autograph at the 2001 MTV Music Video Awards... I just wrote this love letter, and he just wrote back, 'OK.
