"Diggy Down" on YouTube |
"Diggy Down" is a song recorded by Romanian recording artist Inna for her eponymous and fourth studio album (2015) and its Japanese counterpart Body and the Sun (2015). Released for digital download on 15 December 2014 through Empire Music and Roton, it samples Marian Hill's "Got It" (2014), for which the American duo received credit as a featured artist. A remix of the song further featuring American artist Yandel was eventually made available. Written by Ilsey Juber, Marcel Botezan, Radu Bolfea and Sebastian Barac, and produced solely by Vlad Lucan, "Diggy Down" is a mid-tempo dance-pop and R&B recording which lyrically portrays Inna being 'diggy down' on her boyfriend's wishes.
An accompanying music video for the recording was uploaded on 9 December 2014 onto Inna's YouTube channel, and was shot by Michael Mircea in Bucharest, Romania. The visual portrays the singer and a backup dancer performing to the song in front of different backdrops; a special effect was used to duplicate some frames. With music critics generally acclaiming the song and its music video, the clip received a nomination at the 2016 Radio România Actualități Awards for "Best Video".
Commercially, the single reached number one on native Airplay 100, claiming the position for a total of six weeks. It additionally charted at number three in Bulgaria, and peaked at number two hundred twenty-four in Russia. At the 2015 Media Music Awards, a Romanian awards gala based on a song's radio and television coverage, it won "Best Dance". With that privilege, Media Forest revealed that, according to their measurements for the first half of 2015, "Diggy Down" and its music video were played the most on Romanian radio and television, respectively.
