Around July of 2008, Jim Jonsin was working with writer Kalenna on tracks and ideas for random artists when he met Lady Gaga. She happened to be writing for Britney Spears when they decided to work together. “I gave her some music and she went to work in a back room. I think she was writing an idea for Britney [Spears] and it was sick, so I grabbed her and brought her back in the room.” said Jim Jonsin. They wrote three songs together: "Freezer Burn", "Kaboom", and "Let Dem Hoes Fight" with no artist in particular in mind. "Let Dem Hoes Fight" made it way to Trina's ears, and she recorded new verse. Two years later, Trina released the song on her album Amazin' in 2010.

The lyrics to Lady Gaga's song "Kaboom" showcase a woman who is unapologetically confident in her sexuality and ability to get what she wants. The song opens with the repetition of the phrase "You gonna get that, then I need the money," which suggests that the character is looking for a transactional relationship with someone. This is further emphasized by the lines "Don't want love just give me your bling bling, Listen to me boy 'cause I need your thing thing." The character is using her sexuality to get what she wants from men, without any regard for emotional connections.
The chorus of the song encourages physicality, with lines like "Let me see your body work, Work your body till you make your body hurt." The phrase "Kaboom" itself symbolizes sexual energy and explosive passion. The character is also unashamed of her size, stating "Hey there boy, not tryna be funny, I'm a big girl and I need the money."
Overall, the lyrics to "Kaboom" showcase a woman who is confident in her sexuality and unafraid to use it to get what she wants, even if it means transactional relationships with men.
