Far East Movement - Like A G6 ft. The Cataracs, DEV
The hook, performed by Dev, is pulled from her previous song “Booty Bounce,” which was also written and produced by the Cataracs: “Poppin bottles in the ice, like a blizzard/When we drink we do it right, gettin’ slizard/Sippin sizzurp in my ride, like Three 6/Now I’m feelin’ so fly like a G6.” That chorus features a reference to “Sippin’ On Some Syrup,” the 2000 single from Memphis underground rap group Three 6 Mafia.
In 2010, Far East Movement member Kev Nish, told MTV, “A G6 is not a Gatorade flavor. It’s not a car, convertible, four-door. It’s not a watch. But Drake talks about having G4 pilots on deck, so we said, ‘What’s flyer than a G4?’ Of course, it would be a G6.” Nish was referencing Drake’s 2009 cut “Forever,” in which he bragged that he knew G4 pilots on a first-name basis. A G6 airliner was not introduced until 2016.
In a different interview, Nish said, “People ask us ‘what’s you’re inspiration?’ and it’s just partying in a pool house, and in the club of course, DJs are a huge inspiration to us.”
“Like a G6” peaked at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 for three non-consecutive weeks, and was the first single by Asian-American artists to do so. It was also the first by any artists of East Asian origin since Kyu Sakamoto‘s 1963 single “Sukiyaki.”
