"The Git Up" is a song by American singer, songwriter and record producer Blanco Brown, released as his debut single on May 3, 2019.[2] It has been described as the "sequel" to Lil Nas X's "Old Town Road" and the "next viral country rap song".[3][1] Brown filmed himself performing a line dance to the song, which became a meme and was later used in its music video.[3] It debuted at number 66 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and has since peaked at number 14. "The Git Up" serves as the lead single from Brown's debut album Honeysuckle & Lightning Bugs.[4]

Background

Brown has described the initial version of the track me as similar to "Achy Breaky Heart" which influenced the dance element as he felt "You couldn’t take the song serious, but then you can’t make the song a joke either, because it was a smash."[5] The release of the similar "Old Town Road" had a direct effect on the release of the song, as initially it "was supposed to be like a filler" from his EP. However, after learning of "Old Town Road" he called his label's vice president telling him they needed to release the song.[5]

Commercial performance

The song reached number one on Hot Country Songs chart on its fifth week on the chart.[6] The song was certified Gold on September 4, 2019, and Platinum on October 4, 2019.[7] The song has sold 428,000 copies in the United States as of November 2019.[8]
