"Maybe" was sampled for Lupe Fiasco's song "...And He Gets the Girl," a non-album track that was released with the single "I Gotcha" from Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor and was later announced that the track will be a bonus track to commemorate the album's fifth anniversary. Unfortunately, the song did not make the reissue of Food & Liquor.

A "Maybe" remix was released a year later in 2005 on rap duo Clipse's "We Got It 4 Cheap, Volume 2" mixtape. The song is a stylistic departure from the original song. The remix features Pharrell rapping over Outkast's "Elevators (Me & You)"[1] instrumental.
