It was released on 10 July 2009, by Epic Records as the lead single from the album. Its lyrics were written by Shakira. Its musical composition was done by Shakira, John Hill, and Sam Endicott. Shakira and Hill also served as the producers for the song. A Spanish-language translation of the song titled "Loba", which features additional lyrical contributions by Jorge Drexler, was also released earlier on 6 July.


Musically, "She Wolf" is a hi-NRG, synth-pop and electropop track that details Shakira's boredom due to her uncaring partner, and how she looks for others to please her.


Upon its release, "She Wolf" was met with favourable reception from music critics, many of whom praised it for its inventiveness. Commercially, "She Wolf" performed well on record charts. It peaked in the top 10 of charts of countries like Canada, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom. In the United States, "She Wolf" peaked at numbers 11 and one on the US Billboard Hot 100 and Dance/Club Play Songs charts, respectively.


The Spanish-language translation "Loba" peaked at number one on both the Hot Latin Songs and Tropical Songs charts. "She Wolf" was certified double-platinum in Spain and platinum in Italy, Mexico, and the United States.


An accompanying music video for the song was directed by Jake Nava, and features Shakira dancing in various locations, such as a red cave and a golden cage. Critical reception towards the video was also positive, many of whom praised Shakira's dancing ability.


For additional promotion, Shakira performed the song on a number of shows and music festivals. It was also a part of the setlist for The Sun Comes Out World Tour in 2010.
