According to Count, he sometimes listens songs 100 times before turning them into his own arrangement via sampling. “Jussa Playa” was no exception. “I took the lyric ‘just a player, on an old piano.’ and just started from there one day when I was listening to the song for the one hundred and first time,” he wrote. A rough sketch of the beat seemed suitable for an interlude, but Count didn’t have any major plans for it. Then he started imagining different scenarios for how he could build the song into something more.
