For her to put it out even undone, that says a lot. It showed people we wasn’t playin’ with it we was actually in the studio vibing out when we recorded. I thought she was gonna hold that in the can. Lamar expressed his surprise and approval of her releasing the song, as he felt it showed confidence in their work together: “I didn’t even know she was gonna put that out. And the chillun in Rio, and backstage in Colombia,” reads the video’s description. “We feel bad about killing your vibe, so here’s the demo you never got to hear. On November 8, 2012, Lady Gaga released the original version (as "The LG Mix") of the song featuring her vocals, in which she performs the chorus and a verse.

We’ll have something with her and Kendrick very soon though.” However, nor PARTYNAUSEOUS or this song with Gaga were officiated released. Producer, Sounwave revealed that “we’re still working on. If you listen to some of the words, it’s real intricate, but it makes sense. He also revealed the meaning behind the song: “That’s really one big subliminal at everybody getting mixed in a situation where everyone wants to have creative control. I’m not really too tight about it because I know we have something special.” That’s just the business side coming through and messing things up. We had a date, but we had to meet the deadline for the pre-order date. When asked in the same interview why Gaga wasn't on the final cut, Kendrick said: Derek "MixedByAli" Ali, engineer and mixer of the song (Complex, 2012) We actually had a record done but there were timing issues with the album and it didn’t make the cut-off date. They were going back and forth on the song and bouncing around different concepts about what they could do with the record. She wanted to hop on it but I think she did it somewhere in Europe and sent us the files. We were in Chicago with Lady Gaga in the studio when we played the song for her. "Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe" contains portions of "Tiden Flyver", written by Robin Braun, Vindahl Friis and Lykke Schmidt, as performed by Boom Clap Bachelors and contains elements of the master recording "Tiden Flyver", as performed by Boom Clap Bachelors. A video featuring a shortened version of the song was released through DJWSVision No. It was originally intended to be a collaboration with Lady Gaga, but her contributions were ultimately excluded from the final recording due to timing issues.

" Bitch, Don’t Kill My Vibe" is a song recorded by Kendrick Lamar and produced by Sounwave for his major-label debut studio album Good Kid, M.A.A.D City (2012).
