Background and composition

Big Sean teased "Bounce Back" on his social media in early October 2016.^[3] Hitmaka and Smash David also teased the song on their respective Instagram accounts a couple weeks before its release.^[4] On October 30, 2016, he announced on his Twitter account that he would be releasing new music soon.^[5] On the following day, Sean released "Bounce Back" along with "No More Interviews" for digital download through GOOD Music and Def Jam Recordings.^[6]

"Bounce Back" is a trap-influenced hip hop song, written in the key of C♯ minor, and a tempo of 81.2 BPM.^[7]

Commercial performance

"Bounce Back" has peaked at number six on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming Big Sean's highest charting single to date. As of March 19, 2017, it has sold 374,000 copies in the United States and has been certified six-times platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for sales of over six million digital units.^[8]^[9]^[10]

The music video for the song, directed by Glenn Michael and Christo Anesti, premiered on December 12, 2016 via Sean's Vevo channel.^[11] In 2017, the video was nominated for Video of the Year at the BET Awards and for Best Hip-Hop Video at the MTV Video Music Awards.^[12]^[13]

Controversy

Record producer TM88 claimed on his Twitter account that he did not get credited for his alleged work on "Bounce Back", due to producing a song with one of the same producers on the song, "Smash David", on another song released earlier called "Act" by Juicy J, with the same beat elements and composition in that song that was used for "Bounce Back". TM88 later dissed all of the producers on the song except Metro Boomin, who TM88 called "his brother", since they had collaborated numerous times before.^[16]^[17]^[18]^[19]
