Background and release

edit

"Get It" was co-written and produced by Cassie Davis and Snob Scrilla of production duo More Mega, who had worked on Havana Brown's previous single "We Run the Night". In an interview with Jonathon Moran of the Daily Telegraph, Brown described the central theme of the track as a: "feel-good, party song... about going out there and having a good time", likening it to a "Las Vegas anthem".[3] "Get It" was released digitally via iTunes Stores on 9 September 2011, as a non-album single.[2] A digital extended play was also released via iTunes, featuring remixes of "Get It" and the RedOne remix of "We Run the Night".[4] The recording debuted and peaked on the ARIA Singles Chart at number 38 on 25 September 2011.[5] "Get It" also appeared on the ARIA Dance Singles Chart, peaking at number six.[6]

Music video

edit

Brown said that the music video for "Get It" was toned down, elaborating "The final edit is extremely tame compared to the footage filmed. It was very raunchy and I like that."[7]
