Background
Originally, Sean performed both the verses and the chorus but after Brown went at one of Sean's shows, the pair connected and Brown suggested the two work together on a song which resulted in Brown singing the chorus. Brown has also done a freestyle over the track titled "Last", contained in his 2011 mixtape Boy In Detention.Production
"My Last" is a hip hop and R&B song. The song's instrumental was described by Rap-Up as a "bouncy piano-laced beat".DJBooth.net described the beat as "soft keyboard chords that transition well into the hook where a low bass and snare set the pace for Sean's first verse." Sean revealed he originally rejected the beat but gave it a chance after pressurings by the song's producer No I.D. The song's melody is sampled from the 1988 New Edition hit "Can You Stand the Rain".
