"I Wanna Be Down" is an R&B song written and produced by Keith Crouch, and Kipper Jones for Brandy's self-titled debut studio album, Brandy (1994). It was released as the album's lead single in the third quarter of 1994 (see 1994 in music), and received a positive reception from music critics. The song's impact on the charts was large for a debut single: While it spent four weeks on top of the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart, it reached number 6 on the U.S. Hot 100, number 7 in Australia, and number 36 in the UK.
