“Certain things in our human kingdom make me feel like I’m in space, and the very rare few times I’ve had incredible chemistry with someone is one of them,” she told Paper Magazine of the original inspiration of the number. “Part of that cocktail is also the emotional drama between you and that person, and the chaos and butterflies and nerves and passion. It’s unbearable and not peaceful and exhausting, but I enjoy it too.”

The former Fifth Harmony member last released ‘Familia’ in 2022, featuring the singles ‘Don’t Go Yet’ and ‘Bam Bam’. Before that, she released her eponymous debut solo album in 2018, followed by ‘Romance’ the following year.

Outside of music, Cabello can be seen in the indie drama “Rob Peace,” which premiered at this year’s Sundance Film Festival. In the film, she plays the girlfriend of the titular character (actor Jay Will) who is forced to sell drugs to help pay for his imprisoned father’s legal troubles.

“I thought a story like this needed to be told,” Cabello said in January at the Variety Studio, presented by Audible. “People have told these kinds of stories in too simplistic a way… people coming from difficult circumstances; binary ways of looking at success and failure. In reality it is more complex than that.”
