Red Ruby da Sleeze

Nicki Minaj first previewed the track on February 23, 2023, on Instagram, also announcing in a post that it would be released on March 3, 2023. She teased the song with a video of her rapping to it at the Trinidad and Tobago Carnival. Minaj referred to the track as a "street record b4 [sic] my next official single."

Over a beat of "near-Flamenco handclaps" and trap drums, the song finds Nicki Minaj rapping and singing. The chorus functions as a percussive breakdown, featuring faint vocals of "Uh oooooh's" from the sample of Lumidee's "Never Leave You (Uh Oooh, Uh Oooh)" in the background.

Minaj performs in her new titular alter-ego, Red Ruby or Red Ruby Da Sleeze. Media speculated that Minaj dissed Megan Thee Stallion with the lyric "700 on 'em horses when we fixin' to leave / But I don't fuck with horses since Christopher Reeves", which references actor Christopher Reeve's falling off a horse accident that left him paralyzed. It was also speculated that the lyrics "Dorito bitches mad that they not chose" and "Ya fuckin' bozo / That .40 cal a make 'em dance like a go-go" addressed Megan, the former alluding to Megan's promotional song "Flamin' Hottie" for a Hot Cheetos and Doritos Super Bowl commercial, and the latter alluding to the claim that rapper Tory Lanez allegedly yelled "Dance bitch, dance!" when shooting at Megan. Minaj also references fashion designer Donna Karan with the lyric "We don't be Karen like Donna-na, na-na-na-na".

Tom Breihan of Stereogum wrote, "[Minaj] can really rap, and she can really, really rap when she's mad about something. She goes off on this thing, moving in and out of patois, and the beat is hard and pop at the same time." Jon Pareles of The New York Times commented, "Calm arrogance is Nicki Minaj's gift. There's no need to decipher all her allusions because her delivery and production say it all" and "her percussive rhymes are competitive in every realm, linguistic, sexual, financial, culinary ('guacamole with the taco'), and their utter confidence is still convincing."

An official music video was teased on March 15, 2023, and released on May 13. Directed by Grizz and filmed in Trinidad and Tobago and California, it sees Minaj on the deck and in the backyard of her Hidden Hills mansion. She is shown in different outfits, such as a black monokini, a red Dior bikini, and a red kimono which she wears over a swimsuit and later takes off, as well as various clothing of high fashion brands. Reality star Brooke Bailey from Basketball Wives appears alongside Minaj in multiple scenes, such as sitting under a cabana, walking down the city streets and shopping for fashion, and posing in front of a white Range Rover, while also wearing luxury clothing. Additionally, Minaj is seen going on joyrides at night with Jamaican dancehall artist Skeng, and in a pink Rolls-Royce with red interior. Her collaboration with Bailey and outfits in the clip were teased in Instagram posts prior to the release of the video.
