"The Fix " is a song by American rapper Nelly featuring American singer Jeremih . The track is produced by DJ Mustard and Mike Free and interpolates Marvin Gaye 's 1982 hit song "Sexual Healing ".[2] The song came to fruition as a result of Nelly and DJ Mustard having the same publisher, who made sure all references to the interpolation contained within "The Fix" were cleared before it was released.[3]
