In several interviews, both the artist and producer stated that the instrumental was originally meant for The Notorious B.I.G., to be used for a song and single on his Life After Death album, which was posthumously released."Doin It" was a success for LL Cool J, making it to number 9 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number 7 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs Billboard chart. On the B-side was the previous single, "Hey Lover".
The remix featured on the soundtrack to The Nutty Professor samples the Art of Noise's "Moments in Love."
The crowd noise played throughout the song, shouting "Go Brooklyn", is sampled from "Go Stetsa" by Stetsasonic. Keri Hilson sampled this song in her song "Do It" featuring Tank for her debut album In a Perfect World... Rapper Fabolous sampled the song for his song "Doin it Well" featuring Nicki Minaj and Trey Songz for his mixtape Summertime Shootout.
The song has the singers rapping about their sexual desire for each other.
