Sexyy Red has celebrated her first gold and platinum records by revealing the surprising backstory behind one of them.
On Tuesday (August 13), the St. Louis rapper’s “Get It Sexyy” was certified gold, and her breakthrough track “Pound Town” went platinum.
To celebrate the occasion, she took to Instagram the following day to share how “Get It Sexyy” came together.
Surprisingly for such a celebratory song, the evening of “Get It Sexyy”‘s creation found the artist at a low point.
“The night get it sexyy was made I was goin thru a lot just had my baby felt depressed and was goin thru postpartum … my team in Miami would leave me in the studio to write songs & I would just b in there crying thinkin about life,” she began.
“I finally said send me back to St. Louis so I can b around the ones I love and get back to me! Boom I’m in St. Louis I invite all my sisters and friends to my studio session we had blunts, bottles, food allet and I came out wit GET IT SEXYY GET IT SEXYY it really was ah confidence booster for me,” she continued. “we was so turnt all my sadness was gone I love my family period.”
She closed with a jokey postscript: “I was monain in the song cause my h0 was behind me humpin me while I was recording.”
Check the message, along with video from the song’s studio session, below.
The BTS of “Get It Sexyy” isn’t Sexyy Red’s only notable social media post of late. Earlier in the week she amused fans by joking about a doppelgänger who looked like the star, but a bit more refined.
On Monday (August 12), X user at the handle @__naturalista__ uploaded a selfie that immediately went viral, as people couldn’t help but notice her uncanny resemblance to the “Get It Sexyy” rapper – albeit much more cleaned up.

“you look like Sexyy Redd if she went to college & majored in physical science,” one person joked. “This is ‘Wholesome Red,’” another person quipped.
“Sexy redd if she graduated college with a 4.0 GPA and was a Data Analyst. You look smart!,” someone else said, while another comment read: “Respectfully Red.”
By the next day, the post made its way to Sexyy herself, who retweeted with her own name idea: “Sophisticatedd Red?”
