Song

Remix

An official remix of "I'm Better" was released in May 2017. The remix featured Eve, Lil' Kim, and Trina.[1].

Music video

The video was co-directed by Elliott and Dave Meyers.[2] Elliot noted that she had the video in mind upon listening to the track.[3] The video took a month to rehearse owing to Elliott's wish to make it "look like art instead of just a video"[3] and for the choreography to be "challenging".[3] Rolling Stone noted the video "builds on Elliott's future-forward off-kilter aesthetic",[2] also stating that it "nods as much to sci-fi as classic, Hype Williams-era hip-hop videos".[2]
