[5] [6] She teased the song on social media by posting nude and semi-nude, black-and-white photos from the single cover's photo shoot on Instagram accompanied by lyrics from the track.

"Body Say" is a dance ballad with an R&B beat, [5] [10] and explores themes of sexuality and self-confidence. [11] Lovato co-wrote the track with Simon Wilcox and its producer Sir Nolan. [12] The song employs "slinky", synth-y "bedroom beats" behind lyrics, [13] [6] which Zach Johnson of E! News deemed "sexier" than her past single, "Cool for the Summer", that discuss all the things Lovato would do to a lover if her "body had a say." [12] Critics have also made note of the sexual nature of the song given Lovato's recent (at the time of the song's release) breakup with long-term boyfriend, Wilmer Valderrama. [12] Lovato's vocal range on the track spans from the low note of F3 to the high note of F5.
Lovato debuted the song on the first night of the Future Now Tour in Atlanta on June 29, 2016; it became part of a rotating setlist intended to introduce fans to her single. [14] On September 6, 2016, she performed "Body Say" as well as her song "Confident" at the Made for History Fashion Show, a fashion fundraiser hosted by Anna Wintour for Hillary Clinton. [15]
