In Pitchfork’s August 2019 cover story on XCX, “Click” was described as “riotous”, and that it
"...ends with a beat that sounds like monster trucks having sex."
XCX first collaborated with both artists on her 2017 mixtape Pop 2, on tracks “Unlock It” and “Delicious”. She also appeared on Cash’s 2018 record ¥€$, lending backing vocals to the track “COOL 3D WORLD”.
Speaking to Apple Music, she also said:
"I’m not going to lie—and no shade to any of the other artists on the album—but I know of think Kim’s verse might be my favorite on the whole album. I remember when I originally sent Kim this song, I did a verse and it was so bad. She sent me her demo back and her verse killed, and I was like, ‘Oh my god, I cannot put this song out with the verse I currently have.’ So I had to rerecord my thing, as Tommy had also sent me his and killed it, too. I was the weakest! It was bad! I love this song. It goes so hard. And Kim is still shining so bright on this song."

The lyrics to Charli XCX's song Click convey the singer's confidence and assertiveness when it comes to getting what she wants in life. She employs a series of onomatopoeic sounds throughout the song, like "click" and "vroom vroom," to emphasize the sense of certainty and control she feels. The "clique" she references is made up of herself and the other "bad bitches" in her crew, and she suggests that no one can come close to their level of power and dominance. The song also touches on themes of wealth and luxury, making reference to designer brands like Versace, Louis Vuitton, and Goyard, and the idea that Charli and her clique can buy whatever they want with a satisfying "cash register goes click."
