Composition

The song is written in the key of A minor in common time with a tempo of 98 beats per minute. The song follows a chord progression of Am-C-F-G-Am.[3]

Music video

The video is directed by Dave Meyers. Rexha filmed a music video for the song, but it was scrapped due to its explicit content. She told a radio DJ, "It was actually too sexual so I had to get rid of it. It was too much," explaining further, "I have young fans. I like to be sexy 'cause I'm a woman now, but I still want to be a good role model."[4] Rexha later filmed another version for the song in a desert setting.[5] The music video directed by Dave Meyers debuted on January 6, 2017 on Rexha's YouTube account and has since reached over 300 million views.[6][7][8] The outfits she wore in the music video were compared to those of Kylie Jenner by Billboard.[9]

Live performances

The singer performed the song for the first time at the MTV Europe Music Awards on November 6, 2016.[10] On January 13, 2017, she performed "I Got You" on Good Morning America along with her previous single "In the Name of Love".[11] On January 16, 2017, she performed "I Got You" on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,[12] on February 16, 2017 on Late Night with Seth Meyers, on February 17, 2017 on Live with Kelly and on February 22, 2017 along with the song "Say My Name" originally by Destiny's Child on The Late Late Show with James Corden.[13][14][15]
