Fisherrr

In an interview with Complex, Cash Cobain described the studio session in which he recorded the song:

I was with mad people. My studio sessions are crazy. I told Bay to pull up like, "Yo, bro, I'm about to do a studio session," and bro was there before me. When we got there, I pulled up this beat that me, WhoJiggi, and FckBwoy! made. I liked the beat drop, but it dropped too fast. So I'm like, "I don't wanna hear the beat yet. Just loop this part for me," and then me and Bay jumped into the booth. We had girls in the booth, and we were just going crazy. One chick was annoying Bay Swag, and he was like, "I'm trying to work." Then she asked me, "I'm annoying you?" I'm like, "Nah, you're my inspiration." But it was fun, though. For me, making music is fun, so we didn't put too much thought into it. But we knew it was fire though.{{cite web |last1=Rose |first1=Jordan |title=How Cash Cobain Is Reinventing the Sound of New York With Hits Like "Fisherrr" |url=https://www.complex.com/music/a/j-rose/how-cash-cobain-is-reinventing-the-sound-of-new-york-with |website=Complex |access-date=21 April 2024 |date=April 3, 2024}}

A number of celebrities have posted videos of themselves taking part in the dance, including Kai Cenat, La La Anthony, and her son, and Lance Stephenson.

Alphonse Pierre of Pitchfork gave a favorable review, describing the beat as "dreamy yet jerky, the kind of slow-building rhythm that makes you want to fantasize about the last person you flirted with." He added, "Then there's Cash and Bay Swag's killer back-and-forth. The two Queens boys sweetly—and very provocatively—blur the lines between thirst and romance".

In regard to filming the video, Cash Cobain told Billboard, "We wanted to set a real, authentic New York vibe—we got the Chinese restaurant 'cause that's a staple in the hood. I just wanted it to be a Cash Cobain, Slizzy vibe, you know?"
