"High Off My Love" is a song recorded by American recording artist Paris Hilton featuring rapper Birdman. It was written by Hilton, Corte "The Author" Ellis, Charles D. Anderson and Frederick "Diji D" Allen IV, Rondell "Mr. Beatz" Cobbs II and Bryan "Birdman" Williams, with production completed by Mr. Beatz. After several delays, the song first surfaced onto the internet on May 4, 2015 when it was mistakenly released in the United States by several online music stores. It was officially released worldwide on May 15, 2015, along with a music video, by Cash Money Records.
Musically, "High Off My Love" is an up-tempo dance-pop song, which is influenced by EDM and trap music, and also incorporates elements of eurodance. The song's lyrics revolve around people meeting at a party and wanting to "get high off their love". Compared to her previous two singles, it received relatively positive reviews from music critics.
The song's accompanying music video was shot in Los Angeles, California and directed by Hannah Lux Davis. Mainly shot in black-and-white, it depicts Hilton in various bondage-themed outfits. Fifty Shades of Grey and Madonna's music video for "Justify My Love" served as the main inspiration.
Hilton first announced "High Off My Love" as her next single in June 2014 when she was shooting a music video for her song "Come Alive". She was seen leaving the set of the music video for "High Off My Love" a few days later. In January 2015, it was announced that the single would be released in February 2015; Hilton later confirmed this on her Twitter account. On February 8, 2015, she spoke about the single in a red carpet interview at the 57th Annual Grammy Awards and said it would be released in March 2015. On March 18, while promoting her 18th fragrance, Hilton said the single's release date had been delayed and that it would be released either in April or May 2015 instead. Later that same month, during an interview with AllAccess at Miami Music Week, she confirmed the song was produced by Mr. Beatz and that it would be released on April 28. On April 8, however, Hilton stated the single had been pushed back and that the new release date was May 5. On April 15, she posted a preview of the music video on her Instagram.Perez Hilton posted an exclusive 14-second preview of the music video along with the artwork for the single on April 16.
