Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can take you anywhere
Would you wanna go in this world?
You're fine
Girl you have to have an open mind
Now I wait for you to get home
We can break it whenever you want You never got to think it
Know it
Everybody wanna meet you baby downtown
They don't even really know if they want it
Down town
Everybody wanna greet you baby
Downtown
Yeah,yeah
Baby what it makes you feel good?
Do I rock your world
When I tell you momma
That you're my favourite girl
Let em take away your emotions
Don't give up Never get down
If you get lost in the sound
Baby you aren't getting away from here
Take you to anogther atmosphere
Baby kick just like your birthday
Get all wrapped up And your pretty little dress
Let's go celebrate
Why you got have a reason?
If you see them lights Bangin' this groove through the night, girl
You better don't tell somebody
That we're going to the after-party
Downtown I'm takin' my baby downtown
We hit it like downtown
I'm takin' my baby downtown
We're goin' downtown
Drinkin' my cup Pound in the cloud
Which way is up?
We headin' downtown
Wear dress with a purse
Baby girl you got that good stuff
That I've been and want to get next to
You,you,you got an attitude
Love everybody
And everyone
You might be that very one
Put wings of an angel
On the same we do the tango
Spin away
So we can go everywhere any day Just name it, picture and frame it
Lifestyle of the rich and the famous
Downtown
I'm takin' my baby downtown
We hit it like downtown
I'm takin' my baby downtown
We're goin' downtown
Chemistry
It's doin' its thing
You know what I'm sayin'?
Downtown Downtown

The lyrics of Kem feat. Snoop Dogg's song Downtown talks about a guy who wants to take his lady love to downtown while having a great time together. He convinces her to have an open mind and explore the world with him. The guy assures his lady that he can take her anywhere she wants to go in this world. He's waiting for her to come home so that they can break it whenever she wants. He tells her that she's fine and beautiful and everyone wants to meet and greet her downtown.
The guy wants his lady to feel good, and he asks her if he rocks her world. He tells her that she's his favorite girl and everyone loves her. He wants her to enjoy her life as much as she wants and never get down. He asks her not to worry about getting lost in the sound and promises to take her to another atmosphere. The song's vibe is a mix of smooth jazz, R&B, soul, and funk, adding a classic and vintage feel to it. The chorus repeats the phrase "Downtown," emphasizing the song's purpose.

I love Kem’s music, I’m glad that he’s venturing out and doing different things, because for a while his songs were sounding the same. But his music is still just as smooth as it always was.

I knew it was only a matter of time for these two to collaborate, since Snoop previously mentioned how he be grooving/jamming to Kem's music; and as nice of a guy that Kem is....he made it happen. I love this. ❤
