About three years ago, City Girls dropped their Billboard Hot 100-charting single, "Act Up." The following year, it was revealed that their Quality Control Music label mate Lil Yachty penned part of the track for them. Fast-forward to 2021, and Yung Miami of the South Florida-bred rap duo prefers not to speak about Yachty's contribution to her group's song.

During an appearance on Real 92.3's Home Grown Radio on Tuesday (July 6), Yung Miami and JT were asked about Lil Boat penning their 2018 hit record. To this question, Miami replies, "Next," while JT giggles.

It's unclear why Yung Miami chose not to speak on Lil Yachty writing a majority of "Act Up." However, the songwriter credits currently are Issac Bynum (producer Earl on the Beat)—who also produced the record—Caresha Brownlee (Yung Miami), Jatavia Johnson (JT) and Miles Parks McCollum (Lil Yachty).

Yachty's 2019 interview with Kerwin Frost is when the rapper first spoke in-depth about penning the song for the two ladies, with the exception of a portion of JT's verse.

"One day, I was in the studio with my best friend Earl and he played the beat," Yachty explained. "And he was like, 'Write something for the City Girls.' And I was like, 'OK.' And I just did it."

He expressed how shocked people were when they realized he wrote the track. "And when it came out... And [people were] so shocked," Yachty explained. "They didn't believe it. And they started looking it up and they were like, 'Well, it says...' It had my real name, Miles McCollum. It said Miles McCollum, Jatavia Johnson, which is JT, then it said Issac Bynum, which is Earl. So maybe, he did... You know how Kanye has like, 12 writers. He may have said one thing in the studio and they credited him. But I wrote the whole song, except for JT's last verse. But everything that everyone is singing... I wrote the whole thing."

On how Yachty was able to write a song so fitting for his bossed-up, unapologetic colleagues, he said, "I just thought like them. I know them personally and I know what women like to hear. I was literally sitting there like, 'Yo, what's just some raunchy shit?' So I just started saying it and then I went in the booth."
