The song has been perceived as a "breakup song" due to the empowering lyrics and the timing of the original release. Lopez released the song with Rauw Alejandro just a few months after her split from former MLB star Alex Rodriguez.

Although Jennifer's post is limited to who can comment, some users were able to show their support for the star. 

"if something's not feeling right, whatever it is in your life, just make that change, move, and dance," one user wrote.

In 2021, Lopez explained the meaning behind the song on SiriusXM's Pitbull's Globalization.
