“C7osure (You Like)” finds Nas telling someone he loves (maybe, his fans or his family) that he needs to grow, and that fear or worry won’t hold him back: a similar theme is present on “Panini,” a more direct “letter” to those who have been disappointed by his rapid rise to fame.

The song was first teased on June 7, 2019, just two weeks before the release of the artist’s debut project.

On June 30, 2019, the last day of Pride Month, Hill went to Twitter in order to reveal the true personal meaning of the song, as he came out to the world by being his most authentic self in terms of his sexuality (as he seemingly declared himself to be a member of the LGBTQ+ community) and his music.
