Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:For Шаблон:Use Jamaican English Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox song

"Get Busy" is a dancehall song by Jamaican reggae toaster Sean Paul, from his album Dutty Rock. The song was one of the many hits from the jumpy handclap riddim known as the Diwali Riddim, produced by then-newcomer Steven Marsden, and was the only song that never made the "Diwali" rhythm album on Greensleeves Records as it was more than likely a late entry.

Paul described it as "mainly a party song. It's not all about smoking weed". "Get Busy" topped the US Billboard Hot 100 for three weeks in May 2003 and also reached number one in Italy and the Netherlands, becoming a top-10 hit in an additional 11 countries. It was performed on Saturday Night Live in May 2003.Шаблон:Fact

Composition

"Get Busy" is written in the key of F minor in common time with a tempo of 100 beats per minute. The song follows a chord progression of Fm−AШаблон:Flat–G–GШаблон:Flat.[1]

Remix

The official remix, "Get Busy (Clap Your Hands Now Remix)", features rapper Fatman Scoop and the Crooklyn Clan, the remix uses the instrumental of Sean Paul's previous single, "Gimme the Light", on the near end of the song.

Music video

The video for "Get Busy" (directed by Little X) was shot in Woodbridge, Ontario, and released in February 2003. The video was also nominated for two MTV Video Music Awards for Best Dance Video and Best New Artist in 2003. The video shows people dancing to the song at a basement house party, with some partygoers banging on duct pipes until the homeowner comes down to warn them to stop the banging. At the end of the video Paul's brother Jason introduces a song, noting it as a brand new single, and Paul then sings part of "Like Glue". Shortly into the second song, renewed banging on the pipes leads the homeowner to come back down to the basement and declare the party over. Kardinal Offishall makes a cameo appearance in the video.
