“‘Showdown’ expresses the burning passion in a fiery relationship between two lovers who are obsessively crazy about each other, but who also drive each other crazy. ‘Showdown’ describes how unfiltered passion and love meet head-to-head in different forms, which we reflectively felt emoted in ‘90s R&B culture, the reality that in relationships we can get caught up in a whirlwind of emotions with each other and accepting that love means embracing it all.” – Oritsé Williams explained
