"Assassin" is one of the songs on Battle Studies, the fourth studio album John Mayer put out through Columbia in 2009, and on paper it's all his: he wrote the words and the music, sings it and plays the guitar. The rhythm section is Pino Palladino on bass and Steve Jordan on percussion, and Michael Brauer mixed it.

Jordan was more than a hired hand on the record: he and Mayer produced Battle Studies together between February and August 2009, working in a Calabasas studio that shares the album's name, Capitol Studios in Hollywood and The Village in West Los Angeles.
