She also confessed that she didn't expect to have anyone featuring on 'You Right,' but was already in contact with The Weeknd for a possible collab on her 'Planet Her' album. "The thing is that I made this song and then I didn't think that I was gonna get anybody on it and I knew that I wanted The Weeknd on this album," Doja explains.
The 25-year-old said that after The Weeknd heard an already completed 2-verse track. They decided to revamp the song with an additional verse from the featuring artist, "We played him one song and we thought it was the perfect song but it ended up not working and then he heard this other song. It had already finished with two verses but he was obsessed with it!"
