"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.〔 〕 == Recording and release== "Everytime tha Beat Drop" is one out of three tracks Jermaine Dupri contributed to ''The Makings of Me'' and among the last songs on the album Dupri and co-producer LRoc worked on in the SouthSide Studios in Atlanta, Georgia.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=Teen People )〕 Initially recorded for a shelved So So Def mixtape, Monica has described the snap inspired song as a pure fun record without any special lyrical message but with the attempt to show "something that appears on the outside to be different from" her and that is "a real good representation" of where she's from and what she's listening and dancing to in private.〔 "Snap music originated on the West Side of Atlanta," Monica said in an interview with the ''People''. "If you listen to the sound, you'll always hear a snap somewhere in it. Most of the time, whatever (you're moving, you ) stop at the snap."〔 The song incorporates beats of Nelly's 2005 single "Grillz", also produced by Dupri, while sampling from Dem Franchize Boyz's "Lean wit It, Rock wit It"'s line in which it says "Rock, then bend my knees everytime the beat drops."〔 On May 21, 2006, an unmastered clip of the song was leaked onto the internet, and by June 6 the entire track had leaked fully edited.〔 The first version had different vocals from the one on ''The Makings of Me'', and also features less of Dem Franchize Boyz' vocals.〔 A remix version of "Everytime tha Beat Drop" featuring rappers T.I. and Young Jeezy also leaked the following month.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Everytime tha Beat Drop」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
