"Hope You Do" is a song by American singer Chris Brown, taken from his eighth studio album Heartbreak on a Full Moon. "Hope You Do" was released on October 27, 2017, as a promotional single by RCA Records, along with the songs "Everybody Knows" and "Pull Up".[2] The song was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
Composition and lyrics
[edit]"Hope You Do" is a trap-influenced, alternative R&B slow-jam, featuring "yearning croon" from Brown.[3][4] It contains an interpolation of the 2000 song "Where I Wanna Be" by Donell Jones, while the instrumental includes a vocal sample of Jacquees' 2014 track "Come Thru".[5][6] The song's lyrics feature Brown reflecting on a lover and how drunk he is on a late night. According to HotNewHipHop "Brown takes on the role of hopelessly infatuated drinker on this song, his vocal delivery seemingly melting straight into the moody instrumental (...) There's a sense of foreboding from the singer on this track, as if he knows that success in courting the woman he's had his eye on might be a tall order, but the liquid encouragement seems to be going a long way".[7]
Music video
[edit]The music video for "Hope You Do" was directed by Chris Brown with Daniel CZ and released on June 6, 2018 on his YouTube channel.[8] Brown is seen in a long trench coat and a fedora. He shows off his "signature" dance moves and reflects on a lover during a late night out while going through alleys, tunnels, and stairways with backup dancers by his side in a black-and-white world.[8] The video was praised for its vintage black-and-white visuals and its choreography.[8][9]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
