The Git Up

Blanco Brown is a country trap singer and producer. His differing music tastes were influenced by: His upbringing in Atlanta, where he grew up listening to hip-hop artists. Brown's summers visiting his grandma in Butler, Georgia, where he learned to appreciate country music.

This fusion of country with elements of rap and hip-hop is Brown's debut single. A line-dance song, it starts with the singer urging the listener to "grab your loved ones" or "your love partner." He then offers simple instructions on how to perform the dance.

"The Git Up" started going viral after Lil Nas X's rap and country crossover "Old Town Road" began to break in spring 2019. It was aided by Brown's four-step dance tutorial, posted on May 15, 2019, which quickly began racking views on social media. The song was also helped by a viral dance challenge that played out on the TikTok app and YouTube.
