Background and composition

[edit]

Cabello announced the song's release on October 9, 2019, via her social media.[4]

"Easy" was written by Cabello, Justin Tranter, John Hill, Adam Feeney, Louis Bell, Carter Lang and Westen Weiss. It runs for three minutes and sixteen seconds.[5] Hugh McIntyre of Forbes characterized "Easy" as a pop song.[1]

Throughout the track, Cabello can be heard addressing her many insecurities and things that she does not like about herself, such as overthinking to the point where things are ruined, her "crooked teeth" and the stretch marks on her thighs.[6] The track is about how her partner helped her love herself and finding true love for the first time.[7]

Cabello performed the song live for the first time on Saturday Night Live on October 12, 2019.[8] She also performed the song with other singles from the album at Apple Music's New Music Daily Presents event for select fans in November 2019.[9] On the 8th of December, Cabello performed the song on Michael McIntyre's Big Show.[10][11]
