Lil Tay rose to fame at the age of ten (while claiming she was nine) in 2018 for being the self-proclaimed "youngest flexer of the century" as well as posting
rap videos on
YouTube. In June 2018, Tay's Instagram and YouTube content were wiped out in an attempt to rebrand. Since then until the release of this single, Tay had disappeared from social media. In August 2023, it was announced that Lil Tay and her half-brother, Jason Tian, had supposedly died. A day after the announcement, it was reported that Tay's Instagram account was hacked and that none of them died. On September 28, 2023, Tay was spotted outside
Los Angeles International Airport by paparazzi. The next day, she shared a link for her new single "Sucker 4 Green". Unlike her previous rap content, "Sucker 4 Green" is a
dance-pop song, talking about Tay's obsession and love for money.
Rolling Stone described it as a "daft punk-groove-reminiscent bop". It features lyrics like "Money, money, money/ Money, money, money/ I just can’t look away from it/ I want it, want it, want it." as well as "Some calling it a sick obsession/Nothing wrong with being rich and blessed and/ I just want a few yachts and mansions, right now." == Music video ==
