"Bounce Back " is a song by American rapper Big Sean, serving as the lead single from his fourth album, I Decided (2017).[1] The song was produced by Hitmaka and Smash David, with additional production by Metro Boomin and Amaire Johnson.

It also has the subtitle "Take No L's", which is featured on the single's cover.[2] This song was released on November 8, 2016, and originally had the cover "Take No L's".

Background

Big Sean teased "Bounce Back" on his social media in early October 2016.[3] Hitmaka and Smash David also teased the song on their respective Instagram accounts a couple weeks before the song was released.[4] On October 30, 2016, he announced on his Twitter account that he would be releasing new music.[5] On the following day, Sean released "Bounce Back" along with "No More Interviews" for digital download through GOOD Music and Def Jam Recordings.[6]

Composition

"Bounce Back" is a trap-influenced hip hop song, written in the key of C♯ minor, and a tempo of 81.5 BPM.[7]

Music video

The song's accompanying music video premiered on December 12, 2016 on Big Sean's Vevo account on YouTube. It was directed by Glenn Michael and Christo Anesti.[8]

Live performances

On October 31, 2016, Sean performed the song along with "No More Interviews" on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.[9]

Commercial performance

"Bounce Back" has peaked at number six on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming Big Sean's highest charting single to date. As of March 19, 2017, it has sold 374,000 copies in the United States and has been certified double platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for sales of over two million digital units.[10][11]

Controversy

American record producer TM88 claimed on his Twitter account that he did not get credited for his alleged work on "Bounce Back", due to producing a song with one of the same producers on the song, "Smash David", on another song released earlier called "Act" by Juicy J, with the same beat elements and composition in that song that was used for "Bounce Back". TM88 later dissed all of the producers on the song except Metro Boomin, who TM88 called "his brother", since they had collaborated numerous times before.[12][13][14][15]
