Take You There (Sean Kingston song)
2007 single by Sean Kingston
"Take You There" is the third single by Sean Kingston from his self-titled debut album. It was produced by J.R. Rotem. The song was co-written by Kingston, Rotem, Evan "Kidd" Bogart, Rock City, and Eric Bluebaum. The song is about Kingston taking his girlfriend on a date to the West Indies, particularly his native Jamaica. As he told noted UK urban writer Pete Lewis of Blues & Soul in June 2007: "In 'Take You There' I'm basically telling a girl 'Let me take you to where I'm from - to Jamaica, to the paradise and to the slums!'. Because, while many people just think of the tropical beaches, there is definitely another, rugged side to the island too!"[2] The song was originally supposed to be Kingston's debut single in early May of 2007, but Beautiful Girls became his debut single on May 26, 2007.
On the issue date of November 17, 2007, the single debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 at number 81 and peaked at number 7.[3]
