== Production and release ==
Since the release of his debut studio album, ''31 Minutes to Takeoff'' (2010), American singer and songwriter Mike Posner started writing material to be included in his follow-up record, titled ''Pages''. One of the songs set to be included in the album was "Sugar", which Adam Levine heard and wanted to have it on the upcoming Maroon 5 album, on which Posner declined. However, in 2014, he switched labels and announced that ''Pages'' will not be launched, instead of it a new body of music will be released. In an interview with, ''Billboard'', Posner elaborated, "Well, this is just gonna sit on my laptop' so I gave it to them and when they recorded the song Adam added his flavor to it and he wrote on it as well, lyrically and some melodic things, and he really sang it well. I'm a big fan, so I'm glad they did it." The final version of "Sugar" was written by Levine, Posner, Lukasz Gottwald, Jacob Kasher Hindlin, Joshua Coleman and Henry Walter. The production of the song was done by the latter two under their respective production names Ammo and Cirkut.〔
