Right There (feat. Big Sean)

Sourced context

"Right There" is a song by American singer-songwriter Ariana Grande, featuring American rapper Big Sean. It was released on August 6, 2013, by Republic Records as the third and final single from Grande's debut studio album Yours Truly (2013), It was written by Harmony Samuels, Helen "Carmen Reece" Culver, J. "Lonny" Bereal, James "J-Doe" Smith, Al Sherrod Lambert, Grande, Sean, and Jeff Lorber. It features a prominent sample of the jazz instrumental song "Rain Dance" (1979) by The Jeff Lorber Fusion. The song is a throwback to R&B music of the 1990s, a sonority that predominates the production of Yours Truly and the first single "The Way", which Grande considered "Right There" as a sequel to, that uses heavy programmed snare drums, snaps and synthesizers as complement of its sound. In the lyrics, Grande expresses her passion to her love interest affirming that she will always be there for him, with Sean responding to her affirmation while using several double entendres in a more sexual perspective.
