"
Take You There" is the third
single by
Sean Kingston from his
self-titled debut album. It was produced by
JR Rotem. The song was co-written by
Jonathan "J.R." Rotem, Kingston,
Evan "Kidd" Bogart,
Rock City, and Eric Bluebaum. The song is about Kingston taking his girlfriend on a date to the
West Indies, particularly his native
Jamaica. As he told noted UK urban writer Pete Lewis of
Blues & Soul in June 2007: "In 'Take You There' I'm basically telling a girl 'Let me take you to where I'm from - to Jamaica, to the paradise AND to the slums!'. Because, while many people just think of the tropical beaches, there is definitely another, rugged side to the island too!"
