Background

On September 30, 2020, Minaj gave birth to a son, nicknamed "Papa Bear", and announced a break from music to focus on raising her child. After being featured on the remix of Bia's 2021 single, "Whole Lotta Money" and Jesy Nelson's 2021 debut single "Boyz", Minaj began teasing new music in January 2022 and released a teaser for "Do We Have a Problem?" on January 31. She also shared a hotline and asked fans to respond with problems they were facing in their lives, which she would respond to.

In an interview, Minaj said that motherhood had changed her approach to writing lyrics and that she wanted to now stray from penning songs that were too overtly sexual and that she wanted to return to the mixtape-style bars she used earlier in her career.
