Him & I Released  2017 G-Eazy hooks up with his girlfriend Halsey for this romantic duet, which details a story of two star-crossed lovers. "Me and Halsey, we just clicked like that," G-Eazy told MTV News correspondent Gaby Wilson about how the song came together. "We made the record and it came from a really genuine, authentic place, and I think when music comes from a place like that, is when music is at its best." "That's a Bonnie and Clyde song," he continued, "that's a star-crossed lovers song, that's a crazy in love, like, we would kill for each other, we would die for each other kind of thing." Speaking to 97.1 AMP Radio's McCabe about the Futuristics-produced track, Halsey said: "It's like this Bonnie & Clyde record and we made it out of love, which is really, really awesome. Getting to share that with the world is really cool because it's not a contrived thing. It's not two artists pretending to be something they're not for the sake of a story." G-Eazy and Halsey first debuted their "Him & I" collaboration during a live performance in August 2017. The song was released via a World Premiere on iHeartRadio on November 30, 2017. The song's music video was filmed by G-Eazy and Halsey during a weekend in New York City. It was specifically designed to give fans a look into their relationship. "The song is just about us, y'know, it happened really organically," G-Eazy told ABC Radio. "And I wanted the video to kinda portray that same thing, just to be a peek into our lives, the same way the song is."

She asked a friend to put her in contact with rapper G-Eazy, because she wanted to do the song with him. Rexha and G-Eazy met three days later and she played the track on piano for him. He loved the track and asked for the song to be on his album. Rexha accepted and began immediately working on the track with Michael Keenan, G-Eazy's producer. Rexha and Keenan re-produced the beat and decided to keep the chorus, post-chorus, and bridge of the original song and put G-Eazy's rap on the verses, while changing the title to "Me, Myself & I".[9][10] She performed the acoustic of the original version of the song on Elvis Duran and the Morning Show on March 16, 2016.[8] CompositionEdit According to musicnotes.com, the song is written in the key of C minor, with a tempo of 112 beats per minute.[11] Chart performanceEdit The song debuted at number 89 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and peaked at number seven, becoming G-Eazy's first top 10 single and Rexha's second after David Guetta's "Hey Mama". It was also G-Eazy and Rexha's highest-charting single, until "Meant To Be" peaked at number two and "No Limit" peaked at number four, as well as the first number one song for both artists on the US Hot Rap Songs chart.[12] As of December 2021, it has sold 7,000,000 copies in the United States.[13] Music videoEdit The song's music video premiered on October 29, 2015, on G-Eazy's Vevo account on YouTube. Since its release, the video has received over 565 million views.[14] Directed by Taj Stan's Berry, the video surrounds the scene of G-Eazy's birthday, where he is forced to reconcile with his anxieties and the man in the mirror.[15] Bebe Rexha is shown singing throughout the music video.
