A [[Spanish language|Spanish]] version of the song, "Fácil", exists; it only has her vocals without Bow Wow or Lil Wayne. (''Fácil'' means ''easy'' in Spanish.)

"Easy" peaked at #64 on the U.S. [[Billboard Hot 100|''Billboard'' Hot 100]] and it spent a total number of 11 weeks on the Hot 100. Its final position was #90 during the charting week of September 22, 2007.

The video was shot by [[Billie Woodruff]]. It was shown for the first time on television on [[Total Request Live|TRL]] on July 18. The video features appearances by [[Baby Bash]], [[Wilmer Valderrama]], Bow Wow's artist [[Khleo Thomas]], and [[Bow Wow (rapper)|Bow Wow]] himself. In the video, DeAnda can be seen applying make up and driving around in an [[Aston Martin]], being chased continually by men. She shows off her more glamorous side for the first time in this video.

''TRL'' muted the word "gun" out of the video which interrupts the correct instrumental.
