The song peaked at number five, becoming the third top ten single from Anti, as well as her twenty-second top five hit. Rihanna’s sureness regarding her presence in the world—in the work that she’s made, in the ways in which she has earned the right to palm a cocktail and chill on a beach—is bold and motivating, like Actual Confidence always is.Speaking about the cover art's concept, Nachum stated that he painted a young Rihanna to represent her "bringing something new" to music. Rihanna's team contacted Tame Impala's management and informed them that Rihanna loved the band's song "New Person, Same Old Mistakes" and asked if she could re-record the track for Anti.
