Jay Sean’s “Down” feat. Lil Wayne returns to the #1 spot this week on the Billboard Hot 100. Feeling inspired, I decided to arrange my own “Down” cover. I’ve slowed the tempo a bit, kept it all acoustic, and added a shaker. Hope you guys like it!
Let’s hear it for the highest ranking Asian recording artist in Billboard history!
