Put It Down

About Put It Down

"Put It Down" is a song by American recording artist Brandy Norwood, featuring fellow R&B singer Chris Brown. Taken from her sixth studio album Two Eleven (2012), it was written and produced by Sean Garrett, Shondrae "Bangladesh" Crawford and Dwayne "Dem Jointz" Abernathy along with Brown, telling the story of Norwood complimenting a prospective beau on his swag. The bass-heavy, R&B up-tempo track served as Norwood's first release under RCA records, since signing to Chameleon Records under the label, and was released to US digital outlets on May 4, 2012. Upon release, "Put It Down" was met by a warm response from critics, who criticized Brown's involvement on the song but generally praised the progressive production and suggestive lyrics. It reached the top forty of the Belgian Ultratop 50 chart as well as the South Korean Gaon Chart and the top-five of the US Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, marking Norwood's tenth top ten entry and first since “What About Us?” in 2002. The accompanying music video features interactions with Brown, as well as scenes including Norwood dancing in front of both blue-lit industrial backdrops and artful Jackson Pollock-esque green screens. Filmed in Los Angeles, California and directed by Hype Williams, the clip was creatively moulded by Frank Gatson Jr., and choreographed by Jaquel Knight. The video received general acclaim from critics, who commended the simplicity of the video, while many labeled it as her most fun visual in years. Norwood also teamed up with rappers 2 Chainz and Tyga to remix the single, while rapper Eve released a self-crafted remix on her EVEstylin' Tuesdays series in November 2012. more »

Oh way too talk game, it's so tough
Damn I love it all
Even the way you flex

Ooh you know you make me weak
Just 'cause the way you are
'Cause everybody in it know you're a star
But still I'm letting you know
I got the sweetest heart
Any man that wants it babe
He gon' have to work hard
From what I see, you got what I want
That's just half the part
Gotta see what you put on it
To make sure you're the one

If you put it down right like the way I want it
Play your cards right, maybe we can fall in love

I hope the chivalry ain't dead to you boy cause I'm grown
Gotta pull up, and then come up with that when I see what I want
Gotta go old school women sometimes
Still keep it soul, twenty twelve for me
But I still beef it up
And that I still I want you to know
Got the sweetest heart
And even though he can ride it cool for me
He gon' have to work hard
And now I see, you got what I want
That's just half the part
I gotta feel what you put on it
To make sure you're the one

If you put it down right like the way I want it
Play your cards right, maybe we can fall in love
If you put it, put it, if you put it down
If you put it, put it, maybe we can fall in love

I'mma put it down, you can fall in love
I'mma put it down, you can fall in love

If you put it down right, maybe we can fall in love

I'mma put it down, you can fall in love
I'mma put it down, you can fall in love

If you put it down right, maybe we can fall in love

Ain't nobody put it down like me though
Why are you playing? girl you know
With all this money, and all your cake
Girl you better stop, I got a big ego
I'm sipping on that brandy
That liquor comes in handy
And girl I know you fancy
But this party I'm financing
It's so me, it ain't even like that
The way you hating all night
A friend uptight, all right
(So put it down)
I took her at the club
Told the girl she'd be right back
Back to the crib
And in the morning all this is worth it
Baby go get your hair did
And buy you a couple purses

You, you, you, can be the one I go
When having a bad day
And I need a shoulder to cry
You, you, you, might change the way I feel
Teach me how to let the guard down
Ain't gone lie, there's been times
Thought the one I had
Was the answer to my prayers
Come to find out and he wasn't the truth
And I got you, tryna tell me
If I let you put it down

I'mma put it down, you can fall in love

If you put it down right like the way I want it
Play it 'cause we, maybe we can fall in love
If you put it, put it, put it, if you put it, put it
If you put it, put it, maybe we can fall in love

I'mma put it down, you can fall in love
I'mma put it down, you can fall in love

If you put it, put it, maybe we can fall in love

I'mma put it down, you can fall in love
I'mma put it down, you can fall in love

If you put it, put it, maybe we can fall in love

If you put it down right like the way I want it

If you put it, put it, put it, if you put it, put it down
If you put it, put it, maybe we can fall in love

Brandy

Brandy (from brandywine, derived from Dutch brandewijn—"burnt wine") is a spirit produced by distilling wine. Brandy generally contains 35–60% alcohol by volume (70–120 US proof) and is typically taken as an after-dinner drink. Some brandies are aged in wooden casks, while some are simply coloured with caramel colouring to imitate the effect of such aging (and some brandies are produced using a combination of both aging and colouring). more »
