Composition

"Blue Strips" is a pop song which contains a trap-inspired instrumental, [1] with "tinny 808 drumbeats" and "distorted doomy basslines". [2] Performing in her distinctive Southern twang, [2] [1] Jessie Murph sings about having revenge on a former partner who mistreated her by flaunting her wealth, [2] [3] including buying a mansion in Malibu, California and visiting a strip club where she is throwing $100 bills at a dancer and $1 bills at another dancer whom her ex is implied to have cheated on her with. Murph indicates their relationship has continued to stimulate negative emotions in her and she intends to escalate matters further. She also claims she is not mad at her partner but wants to seek retribution. [2]

Remix

On May 23, 2025, Murph released a remix to the song featuring American rapper Sexyy Red. [4] [5]
