The song's development was conceived after JoJo released a cover version of the song "Marvins Room" by Drake, which was also produced by Shebib. Following critical acclaim, JoJo organised recording sessions with the producer to find a new more confident sound for her much-delayed third album. JoJo went on to announce that the R&B song was to serve as the album's lead single, replacing "Disaster", which was released almost a year prior.
"Demonstrate" made its world premiere online and on July 17, 2012. It was scheduled for release to digital outlets on August 28, 2012 but its commercial release was eventually scrapped. "Demonstrate" received favorable reviews from critics who generally praised the maturity of the song; some noted its similarities to Kelly Rowland's 2011 single "Motivation". On December 21, 2018, JoJo released a re-recorded version of the song as a standalone single from her label Clover Music.
