Give It to You (Martha Wash song)


"Give It To You" is a song recorded by American singer/songwriter Martha Wash and the second release from her self-titled 1992 debut album, Martha Wash, and the follow-up single to "Carry On." The track, written and produced by Brian Alexander Morgan, would be her second number-one single on Billboard's Dance Club Songs chart, reaching the top spot on April 3, 1993. It also became a modest crossover hit on the Hot 100, peaking at number 90 in 1993. A music video, directed by Marcus Nispel, was made to accompany the song.

Critical reception

Billboard wrote about the song: "Second shot from Wash's self-titled solo debut has more of a Black Box vibe than her recent No. 1 hit, "Carry On." The hook is simply irresistible, while the bass line firmly supports shoulder-shaking backup vocals and a plethora of cool keyboard effects. As always, Wash's one-of-a-kind soprano is the shining light of this track."
