"Got Me" is a song by American record label Dreamville. It was released on June 12, 2019 along with "Down Bad" as the second singles from the Dreamville's compilation album, Revenge of the Dreamers III. The song features Ari Lennox, Omen, Ty Dolla Sign, and Dreezy.[2]
Background
Under the EP 1-888-88-DREAM, the single was released with "Down Bad" on Wednesday, June 12. The EP’s title is referencing the “1-888-88-DREAM” phone number that Cole used to announce the original Revenge of the Dreamers in 2014.[3] Dreamville representatives used hotline phone number to talk to fans and also play some exclusive tracks from the label's compilation album.[2]
Composition
The song is produced by Deputy, OZ, and MD Beatz. It contains a sample of "Come Over" by Faith Evans from her debut studio album Faith.[4][5][6] Although being uncredited, Ari Lennox said Deante' Hitchcock, Vincent Berry, and Yung Baby Tate helped write her verse for the song.[7]
Critical reception
Erika Marie of HotNewHipHop called the song a "sultry R&B jam" and said it "is a song that you can dedicate to that special somebody or groove to when you're cruising around on a hot summer night." The writer continued to mention that it is a nice balance and shows that Revenge of The Dreamers is cooking up an album that will have a little something for everyone."[8]
