Production
The song was written in January 2020 and saw a collaboration in production between AJ Tracey and The Elements. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, Tracey announced that all first week download profits from sales of "Dinner Guest" would be donated to the COVID-19 Urgent Appeal to support NHS staff and volunteers.[3] This followed his appearance on the BBC Radio 1 charity single "Times Like These", which topped the chart and also raised money for the NHS.[4]
Tracey used a sample of "Push the Feeling On" by Scottish house music producers Nightcrawlers as the hook for the song.[2] It was one of two songs released in 2020 to sample "Push the Feeling On", the other being "House Party" by Mist featuring Fredo.[5]
