"Think About That" is a song by English singer and songwriter Jessie J. The song was released on 15 September 2017 through Republic Records,[1] as the second single from her fourth studio album, R.O.S.E. (2018).[2] Four singles from R.O.S.E. were released, with "Think About That" representing realisation.[3]

Composition

"Think About That" is an R&B song[4][5] led by a piano melody hovering over R&B percussion. It lyrically talks about a gritty love gone wrong,[6] containing the lyrics: "All you disturb is my work and my patience/ Years of grinding, you took it, you broke it/ All 'cause you fake it/ You wanna be famous."[7] The singer revealed she wrote the song when she almost quit music,[5] and credits the song for helping her getting "out of a rut with her music."[8]

The singer described her writer's block in a video titled R.O.S.E. Confessional:[9]

“I didn’t want to write any new songs, Camper said 'Ok' then before he left the room, he put the beat for ‘Think About That’ on a loop. The lyric and melody just start[ed] falling out of me, and 15 minutes later when he returned, I had a song. He laughed and said 'see.”

— Jessie J, R.O.S.E. Confessional

Music video

A music video for the song was released on the same day. It was directed by Erik Rojas, Brian Ziff and Jessie J.[10] The video opens with the singer with her hands tied, dripping wet. She's soon freed, wearing a fishnet body stocking and a BDSM-esque leather mask.[6] The video then consists of her crawling at the camera and dancing on a dim, smoky street.[7] The video was filmed in black and white,[11] and contains references to BDSM.[12][6]
