"Mr. Put It Down" is a song recorded by Puerto Rican singer Ricky Martin. It was written by Martin, Aaron Pearce, Jeremy Hunter, Keith Ross, Gavriel Avinov and Pitbull, who is also featured with a rap verse. "Mr Put It Down" is a dance-pop song with a club and disco influence and elements from the 1970s and 1980s musical styles. Critics compared the song to the works by several music artists such as Michael Jackson, Earth, Wind & Fire and Justin Timberlake. To deliver the lyrics, Martin uses processed vocals and his falsetto. Following its release it charted on the Wallonia Ultratip chart at number 19 and Ultratop Wallonia Dance chart at number 31. In Billboard's July 4, 2015 issue, it reached number one on the Dance Club Songs chart.[1] "Mr. Put It Down" served as the opener on Martin's 2015 One World Tour.
