Background

Kylie Morgan was inspired to write "If He Wanted to He Would" around the titular phrase after seeing it used on social media platforms, notably TikTok. She also made a connection with singer-songwriter Zandi Holup through the app, which led to her reaching out to enlist her help with co-writing, and the two met in March 2021.[1] Morgan felt the song was darker than initially intended, so they later enlisted the help of Ben Johnson with a second writing session in August 2021, where he fleshed out the melody.[1] Johnson ultimately co-produced the track with Shane McAnally.[2]

"If He Wanted to He Would" was certified Gold by the RIAA in March 2024.[3]
