Released in January 2005, “Get Right” marked a bold new era for Jennifer Lopez as the lead single from her fourth studio album, Rebirth. Packed with infectious dance beats, funky horns, and a standout saxophone hook, this energetic club anthem blends R&B, jazz, and funk into one of J.Lo’s most recognizable hits. The song topped the charts in the UK, Ireland, and Italy, while reaching #12 on the US Billboard Hot 100. Its iconic music video, directed by Francis Lawrence, showcases Jennifer playing eight different characters in a nightclub, each with their own story. With four MTV Video Music Award nominations, “Get Right” remains a dance-floor favorite in J.Lo’s catalogue.

Lyrics
Get Right (Lyrics):
You lookin just a little too hard at me
Standin just a little too close to me
You sayin not quite enough to me
You sippin just a little too slow for me
No doubt you playin real cool homie
Got me thinkin what is it you’d do for me
Trippin a little more than I should be
So let yourself go, and get right with me.
