We Got This is a triple-studio album[3][6] released by the Washington, D.C.-based go-go musician Chuck Brown.[4] The triple-album consists of one audio CD containing five new songs, one 22-track audio CD from Chuck Brown's live concert at the 9:30 Club, and one video DVD of the same show. The 22-track songs are presented as one continuous medley, including many of his well-known songs. We Got This consists of collaborations with Jill Scott, Ledisi, and Marcus Miller.[6] The album was dedicated to the memories of Little Benny.

The single "LOVE" received a Grammy nomination for "Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals".[7] However, the song lost the award to "Soldier of Love" by Sade at the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards.[7]
