Foxx originally belted the song's hook which consisted of the lyrics, 'She said she want some Marvin Gaye, some Luther Vandross'. West performed a freestyle rap which impressed Foxx, and later invited him to his recording studio to record 'Slow Jamz'. While hosting a party which included Sean Combs, Missy Elliott, the Neptunes, and Jay-Z, Jamie Foxx first encountered Kanye West, who was recovering from a car crash which shattered his jaw.

'Slow Jamz' received a nomination for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration at the 47th Annual Grammy Awards in 2005, and was nominated for Best Collaboration at the 4th BET Awards in 2004. The song received a silver certification from the British Phonographic Industry (BPI). It also peaked at number three on the UK Singles Chart, and placed at number 47 on the 2004 year-end chart in the country. The song was positioned at number 16 on the 2004 year-end chart in the United States. Upon release, 'Slow Jamz' peaked at number one on the US Billboard Hot 100, which was the first number one song for Twista, West, and Foxx.

The song's lyrics reference slow jam artists and describes the role of lovermen. It samples Luther Vandross' cover of Dionne Warwick's 1964 song ' A House Is Not A Home', and contains genres of hip hop, pop rap, R&B, and soul. The song was written by Twista, Burt Bacharach, Hal David, and the producer West. It was released in 2003, through Atlantic and Roc-A-Fella Records, as the lead single from Twista's fourth studio album Kamikaze (2004), and the second single from West's debut studio album The College Dropout (2004).
