About this song
TIT FOR TAT is the first single from the deluxe version of So Close To What, which was later announced as SO CLOSE TO WHAT??? (deluxe). The song was first teased at Tate McRae's Miss Possessive Tour, where screens displayed the acronym "T4T," and it was later announced on Instagram along with its cover art.

The title phrase means giving back as much as you received, usually in retaliation for something harmful, whether physical or emotional. The song is seen as a possible diss track aimed at McRae's former boyfriend, The Kid LAROI, whose song "A COLD PLAY" is believed to target McRae.
