Background and Composition

The song began as what Jonathan Higgs has described as "an old demo I made in a sort of R&B pastiche style". The band released this demo, under the title "Airstrike On Your Forehead", on their official SoundCloud page, explaining how the song had been altered and stripped down since the demo version.^[1]

"My Kz, Ur Bf" is characterised by its usage of numerous synthesizers, complex syncopated rhythms, fast-paced vocals, and rich backing vocals. In a self-released video on the band's YouTube channel, Higgs describes the song's exploration of "two different types of America", referring to the stark contrast between the "superficial sitcom world" and "killing people in foreign lands". The song imagines a superimposition of the two environments, and how insignificant one would seem in the presence of the other.^[2]
