Composition
was encouraged to create Butterfly Effect by her drag family following her feature on "Six Six Sex" with Trinity the Tuck, Jewels Sparkles, and Sam Star. The title track "Butterfly Effect" touches on themes of self expression and transformation under the metaphorical lyrics about the butterfly effect. She told The Advocate that the inspiration for the last track "Happy Ending" was her career goals to get on RuPaul's Drag Race, and how she yearns to have her successes to be as celebrated as her peers. Drew Louis oversaw production and writing of the EP, which features songs co-written and produced with Shontelle Sparkles, Coen Hutton, Jayelle, and Phluze.Track listing
