In an interview with Bru of Audacy Magazine in November 2024, Addison Rae spoke on transitioning from TikTok to music:

Upon release, the Dance-Pop song peaked at number 10 on the US Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart. After signing with Columbia Records in 2024, Rae collaborated with Charli XCX on the remix of the smash hit, Von Dutch.

Speaking on the success of Diet Pepsi, Rae added:

"It's been crazy,” She further revealed that she had intended for the song to be titled Backseat, but changed it to Diet Pepsi on the advice of Charli XCX:

"I played it for Charlie. She was like, what, why isn't the song called Diet Pepsi?”
