"Get It Sexyy" opens with an "undeniably hooky boast" before the rapper adds "layers of charmingly delivered background vocals" to boost the song's "immediacy". [4] The "snap beat-inspired" [5] track also features a "heavy, churning beat" by producer and long-time collaborator Tay Keith, who previously worked on her 2023 break-out hits "Pound Town" and "SkeeYee". [6] The collaboration was seen as a "natural fit" as a blend between Keith's "loud and aggressive beats" and the "ratchetness" as well as the "sexually confident energy" of the rapper. [7] "Get It Sexyy" samples and interpolates the 2009 single "Halle Berry (She's Fine)" by Hurricane Chris featuring Superstarr. [1] The second verse of the song contains an interpolation of the chorus of Iggy Azalea’s 2019 single "Sally Walker", [8] which in turn is an interpolation of the children's nursery rhyme, "Little Sally Walker".
