Lopez promoted the track with live performances on the 2014 Billboard Music Awards, American Idol, Late Show with Jimmy Fallon.
In the United Kingdom, the song was available to digital download on June 8, 2014.
The song was recorded at Conway Studios, Los Angeles, California, and at Wolf Cousin Studios, Stockholm, Sweden.

Jeff Benjamin of Fuse TV found the song to be reminiscent of her song "(What Is) Love?" (2011)".
Mike Wass of Idolator remarked that the song "even has a splash of 2000 classic 'Waiting for Tonight' about the serotonin-raising chorus".
Ziwei of Spin or Bin Music wrote the song is reminiscent of her previous singles "If You Had My Love" (1999) and "Love Don't Cost a Thing" (2001).
Caroline Sullivan of The Guardian noted that the track "sweetly extols the pleasure of finding the right person long past the first flush of youth."
Lydia Jenkin of The New Zealand Herald noted that the track "has the kind of lively spirit and hummability that's made J-Lo a household name in the past, and seems an effortless throwaway hit."
Jim Farber of New York Daily News praised the song for "fulfilling its musical mission: being a sweet piece of candy pop"
Devone Jones of PopMatters noted that Lopez "happens to strike gold with a track that sounds like an updated demo of a hit made for Britney Spears, which doesn't mean Jenny fails to put her own stamp on the track.
"First Love" received minor impact on the charts, especially on the Billboard charts, where it managed to chart on the Billboard Hot 100 at number 87, its debut peak.
The song topped the Hot Dance Club Songs, becoming Lopez's 15th number-one there.
Lopez tied with Donna Summer for the seventh-most toppers in the chart's 38-year history.

In Ireland, the song debuted at number 79.
In South Korea, the song managed to debut at number 15, with first-week sales of 7,582 copies.
A music video for the song was shot in the California desert outside of Los Angeles in early May.
On May 27, 2014, Lopez teased the video on her Instagram account, uploading a sneak peek of it, also announcing that it would be fully released the same day on Entertainment Tonight.
Carolyn Menyes of Music Times felt that the video "looks like a fancy old school perfume ad."
