Background
Tyler recorded his verse on "Cash In Cash Out" after Williams played him the song with 21 Savage's vocals on it. Tyler asked Williams to send him the instrumental version of the song and then sent him a voice recording of his verse. Williams was working on 21 Savage's then-upcoming third studio album, which the song was originally intended for, but Williams wanted to keep the song for himself.{{cite web|url=https://www.gq.com/story/pharrell-tyler-21-savage-cash-in-cash-out|title="Like a Blowtorch to the Face": Pharrell On His Dark New Single and Innovative Video|website=GQ|last=Wicker|first=Jewel|date=June 10, 2022|access-date=June 10, 2022}} After a clip of Williams and 21 Savage working together on the song surfaced, Williams announced the song's title, cover art, and release date on May 31, 2022.{{cite magazine|url=https://www.billboard.com/music/rb-hip-hop/pharrell-tyler-the-creator-21-savage-collaboration-cash-in-cash-out-1235080418/|title=Pharrell Is Teaming Up With Tyler the Creator & 21 Savage on New Track 'Cash In Cash Out': Here's When It Arrives|magazine=Billboard|last=Bowenbank|first=Starr|date=June 2, 2022|access-date=June 10, 2022}}
Composition and lyrics
"Cash In Cash Out" contains a stripped-back beat by Williams that consists of "airtight snare drums, a blown-out 808, and vocal chirps". 21 Savage raps about receiving a million dollars to show up to places and references the 2001 stoner comedy film How High in a metaphor. Tyler uses different flows when he starts rapping on the song. The song is overall "dark and playful" and Williams continues his "streak of finding the beauty in opposites".{{cite web|url=https://pitchfork.com/reviews/tracks/cash-in-cash-out/|title="Cash In Cash Out" [ft. 21 Savage and Tyler, the Creator] - Pharrell Williams|website=Pitchfork|last=Green|first=Dylan|date=June 10, 2022|access-date=June 10, 2022}} In the first verse, 21 Savage raps about his gratitude to collaborate with Williams: "Pharrell made this so it's a million dollar beat". In the second verse, Tyler raps about a past performance that had non-money issues that he dealt with.{{cite magazine|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/pharrell-21-savage-tyler-the-creator-cash-in-cash-out-1365564/|title=Pharrell Recruits 21 Savage, Tyler the Creator for New Song 'Cash In Cash Out'|magazine=Rolling Stone|last=Kreps|first=Daniel|date=June 10, 2022|access-date=June 10, 2022}}
