“Sticky” features an Afrobeat rythmn and sound, while the B-side track "Te Quiero" is described as a Latin-style song.^[5] This is in contrast to Kiss of Life's previous hip-hop and retro-inspired releases.^[6] Kiss of Life member Julie described the concept of "Sticky" as "refreshing" and "about (the group) being brighter and happy", which is unlike the "strong and intense image based on hip-hop sounds" that they are known for.^[6]
