This Was Initially Made Available As A Promotional Single From Lady Gaga's ARTPOP Album. Upon Its Release The Song Received Acclaim From Music Critics And Topped The American ITunes Highest Selling Songs List Within Five Hours. Such Was The Positive Response That It Was Released As The Second Single Instead Of The Planned "Venus." The Song Features R Kelly And Gaga Was Pleased To Have Chicago's R&B Mastermind On The Tune. "Can You Believe That R. Kelly Is On My Album? He Sounds So Amazing And The Song Is So Great " Gaga Said During An Interview On Live 101.5. "It's An R&B Record. I Did A Lot Of Genre Tripping On This Album."
A Half Minute Snippet Of The Song Was Featured In A Best Buy Commercial For Beats By Dre Headphones In The US. The Song Finds The Two Singers Taking On Their Critics. Gaga Also Used Lines From The Song To Tackle Her Detractors In A Series Of Tweets. One Missive Was Addressed To Those Who Referenced Her Failure To Outdo Katy Perry On The Charts When They Dropped Their Singles "Applause" And "Roar" On The Same Day. "APPLAUSE Didn't DEBUT AT #1! KATY IS BETTER THAN HER! #UWontUseMyMind I Write For The Music Not The Charts " She Tweeted. Gaga Told The Story Behind This Song During A Listening Party At Berlin's Famed Berghain Club. "I've Been Living In Chicago And Spending A Lot Of Time There And That's Where R. Kelly Hails From " She Explained. "I Was Working On ARTPOP And I Wrote 'Do What U Want' On Tour. It Was About My Obsession With The Way People View Me. I Have Always Been An R. Kelly Fan And Actually It Is Like An Epic Pastime In The Haus Of Gaga That We Just Get F---Ed Up And Play R. Kelly. This Is A Real R&B Song And I Said 'I Have To Call The King Of R&B And I Need His Blessing.' It Was A Mutual Love. He's A Very Very Very Talented Man. I'm So Excited To Be On This Album With Him." Gaga Told USA Today That R. Kelly Is Her Close Friend. "It's Not That Unlikely. I've Been Living In Chicago And He's From Chicago. When It Comes To R&B There's Really Nobody Else To Call " She Said. "The Thing We Have Very Much In Common Is That A Lot Of People Write Very Untrue Things About Me And A Lot Of People Write Very Untrue Things About Him. Look It Was The Perfect Marriage In That Way. It Was Very Emotional Singing The Song With Him. He Wanted To Be My Friend. We're Both Songwriters. When I Talk To Him He Gets It And Vice Versa."
Producer DJ White Shadow Broke Down To MTV News How This Duet Came About. "When She Started Singing The Song We Were On A Bus In Europe And I Was Like Instantly 'This Is My Favorite Song. It's Never Going To Stop That This Is My Favorite Song On The Whole Record '" He Recalled. "We Had Gone Over The Idea Of A Collaboration ... And I Was Like 'You Know What Would Be Awesome? R. Kelly.' And She Was Like 'Sure Let's Do It.'" Lady Gaga And R. Kelly Came Together To Give A Raunchy Performance Of The Song On The November 16 2013 Episode Of Saturday Night Live Which Included The Mother Monster Simulating A Sex Act On The Chicago Crooner. Gaga Also Performed Her Anthemic Ballad "Gypsy " During The Show Which The Singer Hosted And Performed In Several Sketches.

On January 10th 2019 Lady Gaga Had The R. Kelly Version Of The Song Removed From Streaming Services And Digital Retailers After The Documentary ‘Surviving R.
