"Summer Too Hot" is a song recorded by American singer Chris Brown from his upcoming eleventh studio album 11:11. The song was released as the album's lead single on June 23, 2023.[1]
Background and release
On May 19, 2023, Brown teased the release of new music on his Instagram account, writing: "If y'all thought I wasn't gonna drop a single for the summer, think again".[2][3] He later officially announced the release of "Summer Too Hot" on June 17, sharing the single's title, cover art, and release date for June 23, 2023.[4] The artwork for the song was shot by photographer Mastermind, and features the singer walking through the ocean, wearing a full green outfit, and a pair of "Nami Slides".[5]
Composition
"Summer Too Hot" is an R&B mid-tempo, based off what Revolt described as a "bouncy" instrumental.[6] The song was written by Brown along with singer Nasri, who previously worked with the singer for his singles "Don't Judge Me" and "Next to You", Toney Martinez, and Major Myjah, while production was handled by Brown's frequent collaborator RoccStar, and DSTRK.[6] On "Summer Too Hot" Brown displays his falsetto during his vocal performance.[7] The song's theme is centered around sexual desire, and is located in a summertime context.[8][9][10]
Music video
On August 18, 2023, Brown uploaded the music video for "Summer Too Hot" on his YouTube account.[11] The video was directed by Christian Breslauer.[12] For the video Brown recruited most dancers that were part of the previous music videos of his career.[13]
Synopsis
The video is set in an urban summer scenario, and starts with a radio speaker warning his listeners of the high temperatures outside, then announcing "even hotter tunes on the way", with "Summer Too Hot" starting to play. The video features Brown and his dancing crew doing complex choreographies throughout the clip, with Brown transforming objects into water with his dance moves. The singer then starts to follow a girl who's in the backseat of a convertible car, interpreted by Janina Garraway, who previously starred in Brown's "Say Goodbye"'s music video. Brown eventually transforms himself into a water-man during the last dancing scene of the video, ending the video reaching the car where the girl that caught his eye stayed.
Commercial performance
The song debuted at number 93 on the US Billboard Hot 100 on the issue dated September 2, 2023, tallying Brown's 115th entry on the chart.[14] In the next week, the song fell at number 96 on the chart.[15][16]
