About Everytime Tha Beat Drop

"Everytime tha Beat Drop" is a song by American recording artist Monica from her fifth studio album The Makings of Me (2006). It was written by Johnta Austin, Jermaine Dupri, Robert Hill, Charles Hammond, Deangelo Hunt, James Phillips, and rap group Dem Franchize Boyz, while production was hemled by Dupri and LRoc. Musically, the downbeat uptempo track was greatly influenced by crunk and snap music, incorporating beats of Nelly's 2005 single "Grillz" and containing a vocal sample of Dem Franchize Boyz' 2006 hit single, "Lean wit It, Rock wit It. "A lyrical and musical departure from Monica's previous singles, the uptempo record was released as the album's leading single in the United States in July 2006, gaining generally mixed to negative reviews by music critics who called it "untypical" and "avoidable". On the charts, it became Monica's tenth top twenty entry on Billboard's Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, but failed to reach the top forty on the official Hot 100, becoming her least successful lead single since 2002's "All Eyez on Me.""Everytime tha Beat Drop" was performed along with Dem Franchize Boyz on several television, such as The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Late Show with David Letterman, MTV's Total Request Live, and BET's 106 & Park. An accompanying music video for the song, directed by Ray Kay, was filmed in Monica's hometown Atlanta, Georgia. The singer later voiced her remorse towards her record company bosses for subsequently deciding to release "Everytime the Beat Drops" as a single, wishing for a more typical record to be released as the first single instead, and dismissed the song as a wrong interpretation of her artistical status.

R-R-R-Rock then bend my knees, every time the beat drop

I just love to dance every time the beat drop 
I love to wild out damn right shake it all night 
Ay that's my jam every time the beat drop

I know you used to seeing Mo laid back 
So for the most part you think I'm like that (dig this) 
You about to get a glimpse of the fit 
I'm getting niggas on the floor mane when I hit the door mane 
Cause I ain't one of these too bourgeois broads 
Always in the club holding up the wall (now dig this)

I love to wild out damn right shake it all night 
Ay that's my jam every time the beat drop 
I said oh all the ladies in the club grab a dude 
And you work it real slow you can do it 
Move it till you make him lose it 
(R-R-R-rock then bend your knees every time the beat drop) 
He gon' be a fan every time the beat drop

And when I talk well I'm through talking 
I'm about to do something move something let you see something 
When I say get gutta it's enough said 
Do the bounce like you over on Bankhead 
And if anybody got a problem with the way you doin you 
Look 'em dead in the face and say

You know pimpin' make the beat drop fuckin' wit a laptop 
I make 'em do it do it as soon as the beat drop 
Might throw my towels out like Nick I like to wild out 
I'm a stay in the game until I fall out 
First I lean grab a ball and then I pop wit it (I pop wit it) 
When they bring the mics the crowd I rock wit it (I rock wit it)

When the songs on they like that's my shit
