Background[]

In 2018, Kid Culture — a then 16-year-old producing prodigy from Seattle — created a bouncy beat with fellow producer Sasha Sirota. He later played the beat for Poo Bear, a frequent collaborator of Justin Bieber’s, during a trip to Los Angeles. “He loved it,” recalls Kid Culture. “He played Justin my music, and he really loved it.”

In October 2019, Bieber turned the beat into the foundation of “Yummy,” the sultry, R&B-flavored first single, released Jan. 3, off the highly anticipated follow-up to his 2015 album, Purpose. Following its release, the track became Bieber’s 17th Billboard Hot 100 top 10, debuting at No. 2 on the chart dated Jan. 18.[1]

The song is inspired by Hailey.[2]

Standing up, keep me on the rise
Lost control of myself, I'm compromised
You're incriminated, no disguise (No disguise)
And you ain't never running low on supplies
