In popular culture[edit]

"S.L.U.T." was included in the song list of the video game Just Dance 2019 (2018). The song's title was expanded to "Sweet Little Unforgettable Thing" in the game, likely to be more kid-friendly.[2]

"S.L.U.T." is used as the outro song for the Barstool Sports podcast Schnitt Talk.

The song was used in a season 1 episode of the Netflix series Ginny & Georgia.

Composition and lyrics[edit]

"S.L.U.T." is a song about female empowerment. In an interview with Teen Vogue, Miller said that she was inspired to write the song when someone commented on a picture she posted of herself to slut-shame her. Miller's co-writer looked up the word 'slut' on the Urban Dictionary and one of the definitions defined it as an acronym for "Sweet, little, unforgettable thing". Miller thought that women feel better hearing this and said that "when women are called a slut for absolutely no reason", the song will make them feel better about themselves.[3][excessive quote]

Music video[edit]

The music video for "S.L.U.T." was released on January 18, 2018.[citation needed]
