At the same time, Thebe had his own plans and he was kinda scared, cause he didn’t want to disappoint anyone."〔 Production duo Christian Rich helped Sweatshirt produce "Chum". Sweatshirt had heard of the two before, and the duo met with Sony's A&R staff for Sweatshirt to hear their beats. According to a member of the duo Kehinde Hassan, "he was going nuts in the studio like, “Wow, okay listen, you guys got to do this project with me.”"〔 Sweatshirt's first album ''Doris'' was produced over the course of about four or five months, and "Chum" was created on its first three days of making the LP.〔Wete, Brad (June 5, 2013).

That's how 'Chum' worked."〔 The song's instrumentation consists of a tumbling piano loop, a low-octave, fuzzy bass, drums, vocals, and other sampled sounds.〔〔 Christian Rich originally considered Thom Yorke to perform the hook to make it sound bigger, but Sweatshirt refused, as he didn't want to go for that sound.〔 Sweatshirt came up with the piano and bass line,〔 and recorded his vocals in one take,〔 while Christian Rich made the drums.〔 The sampled sounds used in the track includes a scream sound effect played at the beginning, which was from a Wu-Tang Clan song the duo listened to years before and wanted to use, a looped recording of Taiwo Hassan saying to the song's engineer "Can you turn that up? Can you get that beat in my headphones louder?", and a sample of Chad Hugo laughing.〔(Christian Rich - Off The Record: Earl Sweatshirt's "Chum" ). HipHopDX. August 28, 2013.
