Jennifer Lopez — Dance Again feat. Pitbull

"Dance Again" is a song by American recording artist and actress Jennifer Lopez, featuring American rapper Pitbull. It was released on April 2, 2012 by Epic Records. "Dance Again" is an uptempo dance-pop song, written by AJ Junior, The Chef, Enrique Iglesias, Pitbull and RedOne, who also produced the song. It marks the third time that Lopez and Pitbull collaborated on a song; the previous songs being the promotional single "Fresh Out the Oven" (2009) and the single "On the Floor" (2011).

After experiencing a decrease in her commercial success with her studio albums Como Ama una Mujer (2007) and Brave (2007), and the single "Louboutins" (2009) Lopez parted ways with Epic Records and Sony Music Entertainment in 2010, her record label for over ten years. She then signed a record contract with Island Records by its CEO L.A. Reid, to release her seventh studio album Love? (2011). She released her first single with the label "On the Floor" featuring American rapper Pitbull in February 2011. The song topped the charts across the globe; peaking at number three on the Billboard Hot 100, her highest peaking song on that chart in over eight years. The song became one of the most successful singles of the year. Despite the success of the single", Love? received moderate commercial success, reaching the top ten in over twenty countries. Following the release of "On the Floor", Love? produced two moderately successful singles: "I'm Into You" and "Papi", in which both topped the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart. In November 2011 it was revealed that Lopez was working on new material for a greatest hits album, to be released in 2012. The following month, Lopez posted a message on her Twitter account starting that she was playing some of her new music for L.A. Reid, who was now the CEO and chairman of Epic Records. This led further speculation that Lopez had moved back to Epic Records, which was first reported in July of 2011.
Lopez announced on March 2, 2012 that she would release a new single by the end of the month. On March 15 it was revealed during an episode of American Idol that the song would be released on March 30. The song will be sent to mainstream radio in the United States on April 3, 2012. On March 26, a snippet of the song was made available online at y100.com. Two days later, a one-minute snippet of the song appeared online. The song made its world premiere on Ryan Seacrest's radio show On-Air with Ryan Seacrest. On March 27, Lopez posted a quarter of the single's official artwork through a puzzle piece; if 15,500 people shared the post on Facebook, a new piece of the puzzle (artwork) would be unlocked. The three puzzle pieces were revealed, and Lopez posted the entire artwork on her website on March 29. It featured her entangled with a group of half-naked men, wearing black masks on their eyes, and Lopez wearing a black top with a necklace and stockings. Lopez has stated that she doesn't know if "Dance Again" would be the lead single from a greatest hits album or her eighth studio album.
During an interview with Ryan Seacrest, speaking on the concept behind the song, Lopez said "I love being able to collaborate with the producer RedOne again, and working with Pitbull again. We had a great chemistry the last time, and it was like ‘We’re going to have to do something again.’ And this was the perfect song. I love the message of the song. That when something bad happens, your life is not over. You have to get up. You’re gonna live. You’re gonna to be okay.
