"Thank You" pairs Busta Rhymes with fellow New York rapper Q-Tip, the two trading verses over a beat Busta produced himself, built on a sample of Alicia Myers' 1981 "I Want to Thank You". Their label bosses drop in as well: Lil Wayne handles the intro and Kanye West pops up midway through.

Cash Money and Republic put it out in November 2013 as the planned second single from Extinction Level Event 2: The Wrath of God, his tenth album, but that record didn't arrive until October 30, 2020, on Conglomerate and Empire, and by then "Thank You" and the other advance single, "#Twerkit", had both been left off it. It never made the Hot 100, but it went top twenty in the UK.
