Lyrics

In the song, Ice Spice uses a play on words to reduce someone with a big ego (slang term: the shit) to being less than a fart.^[3]

Ice Spice revealed through an appearance on Twitter Spaces that the song was targeted at the rapper Latto, who posted a small clip of her then-unreleased song "Sunday Service" with the music video for Ice Spice's song "Pretty Girl" being slightly visible on the TV in the background. Latto denied that she purposely put the music video back there in several interviews. However, regarding her reaction, Ice Spice stated:

"Seeing that I'm in the back of your weak ass snippet? I was like, 'Wait a second, that's me?' So I'm like, 'Since we're talking about me, let's talk about me.' It was really just a snippet. I was like, 'This has to be fake. This is AI.' But bitches be bold, so I was like, 'Oh, we're being bold today."^[12]

Music video

The George Buford and Frederick Buford-directed music video was filmed in Miami on January 13, 2024, and was released alongside the track. In the video, Ice Spice "is seen twerking and partying around the city, holding stacks of cash in high-end cars and vibing with her friends on boats".^[13]
