The concept for the fifth installment of the Sooperman Lover series sees him lose his mojo, similar to Austin Powers from the 1999 film Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me. The second half of the song finds Soopaman on a mission to get it back. Redman said the following regarding the production of the track:

Do you know where the beat came from? You will if you’re familiar with I’m Gonna Git You Sucka, one of my favorite fuckin' movies. Remember when Fly Guy stepped off the steps with the fish in his shoes? I love that part so bad that I had to recreate [“He’s A Fly Guy” by Curtis Mayfield from the soundtrack] and do it for “Sooperman Lover.” E and his boys played it over and I produced the second half.

Erick Sermon added:

He made me get that movie and play it over. That was FONKY. I just find the sound that’s as close as possible to the sample. Then you EQ it so it sounds real. I only play the organ and piano.

It’s another reference to the video game NBA Jam after the one in verse two. In popular sports culture, the phrases “He’s heating up”, “He’s on fire” and “Boomshakalaka!” are identified with NBA Jam. In the game these catch-phrases describe when a player hit two or three shots in a row. When a player is “on fire”, the ball literally catches fire and singes the net.
