In 2009, she recorded and released her first single, "Drop It Low" which features singer Chris Brown, off the LeBron James documentary, More Than a Game, which peaked at #38 on the US Billboard Hot 100, becoming her first US Top 40 single. The song received positive reviews, and the song was remixed by artists such as Lil Wayne, Trey Songz and Diddy. She was featured on Nicki Minaj's song Super Bass, a bonus track for the rapper's debut album Pink Friday.

The lyrics of Ester Dean's "Drop It Low" are meant to empower and celebrate women who make money, own their bodies, and dance their way through life. The chorus, which repeats throughout the song, encourages women to "drop it low" and shake their "booty" on the dance floor. The lyrics are both provocative and unapologetic, representing a form of feminist expression that celebrates female sexuality and agency.
The verses describe a man who is captivated by the main character's dancing and urges her to keep moving her body in ways that please him. Despite his demands and objectification of her, the main character remains in control and confident. She asserts herself as the "baddest bitch in the club" and flaunts her power over men. By asserting her sexual agency and expressing herself freely, the main character challenges traditional gender roles and expectations.
