How Jack Harlow’s ‘Lovin On Me’ Came Together


Producer Sean Momberger talks scoring his first Hot 100 No. 1 with the throwback hit.

As debate continues over contemporary hip-hop’s ability to top the charts, producer Sean Momberger reached into the past to help the genre regain its pop dominance — and score his first Billboard Hot 100 No. “Lovin on Me,” which borrows from a 1990s Detroit hit, became Jack Harlow’s third Hot 100 leader, continuing the Louisville, Ky., rapper’s success with sample-driven compositions that started in 2022 with his debut chart-topper, “First Class.” In this case, Momberger sourced the “Lovin on Me” hook from Cadillac Dale’s 1995 hit, “Whatever (Bass Soliloquy).” The 33-year-old producer says he wasn’t too familiar with the song, but once he heard the “whips and chains” part, he immediately put it into Pro Tools and started building the track.
