Description
"Pon de Replay" which features a Caribbean-infused beat is partially responsible for Rihanna's current recording contract. Although she was later asked to perform another song a cappella in front of Jay-Z for her audition, "Pon de Replay" was part of her original demo tape that she had created with Struken and Rogers. The song's title roughly translated from Bajan means "play it again." In essence, Rihanna is asking the DJ of a club to turn up the music and keep replaying her song. She sums up her feelings as she states, "Come Mr. DJ, song pon de replay, come Mr. DJ won't you turn the music up." Rihanna also makes a reference to her then labelmate Christina Milian's Top 5 hit "Dip It Low" when she sings "Let's go, dip it low, then you bring it up slow."
Lyrics
[Hook x2:]
Come Mr. DJ song pon de replay
Come Rr. DJ won't you turn the music up
All the gyal pon the dancefloor wantin some more what
Come Mr. DJ won't you turn the music up
[Verse:]

everybody on the floor let me show you how we do
lets go dip it low then you bring it up slow
wine it up 1 time wine it back once more
[Pre-Hook:]
Run, Run, Run, Run
Everybody move run
Lemme see you move and
Rock it til the grooves done
Shake it til the moon becomes the sun (Sun)
Everybody in the club give me a run (Run)
If you ready to move say it (Yeah Yeah)
One time for your mind say it (Yeah Yeah)
Well i'm ready for ya
