The song also reached the top 20 in Canada, Finland, Iceland, Lithuania, Portugal, Singapore and Slovakia. It was later nominated for the Best Album Ivor Novello Award in May 2022. [4]

Russ Millions and Tion Wayne previously collaborated on the 2019 single "Keisha & Becky", which peaked at number seven on the UK Singles Chart.[5] "Body" was described as a boast about wealth "over rapid, clattering beats" in the Evening Standard.[6]
