While specific recording dates are not known, basic tracking (as Tasty) took place between Spring 1991 and early 1992 at Paisley Park Studios in Chanhassen, Minnesota (assumed). It was included as the tenth track on a 15 June 1992 configuration of Carmen Electra’s debut album, then titled On Top (with the artist credit "Carmen"). The released version opens with a sample from Make It Funky by James Brown (released as a single in 1971).
