In “Girlfriend,” Chris and Lupe try to convince a lady’s boyfriend that they’re not interested in her, despite his girlfriend being attracted to them. In the verses, they both name drop their natives, Virginia and Chicago, and flaunt their expensive modes of transport between the two areas.
“Girlfriend” is the second collaboration between Chris and Lupe following 2008’s “Forever (Remix)” which Lupe hopped on. They later collaborated on “Crack,” a track premiered live in 2014 but has never been officially released.
