As Chanel West Coast revealed to The Hype Magazine, "Greatest Hit" is a great place to start if you want to get to know her work. "I think if you were to listen to my music for the first time it's a good first song to hear. It's ... the beat is crazy. I'm a bit like singing melodic on the hook. but then rapping my a** off on the verses."
Reminiscing on the song herself, she also revealed to the magazine that it reminded her of the time she signed with record label Young Money Entertainment, which is owned by Lil Wayne. "I recorded the song in Miami at Hit Factory, basically when I signed with Lil Wayne right after I had met him, we took a week there to just record songs and that was one of the songs that I recorded out there," she told The Hype Magazine. "So, it really for me, reminds me of that period of my life."
