Let You Down

Let You Down

NF

On “Let You Down,” NF laments the struggles he had earlier in his life, and looking back at himself he felt like he “let himself down.” This track is similar to his songs “Got You On My Mind” and “Wish You Wouldn’t,” from his previous album Therapy Session.

Just like “Outro” and “Green Lights,” NF tweeted the first letter of the track—in this case, “L,” which could have been alluding either to “Let You Down” or “Lie.” Nine minutes later, he tweeted out the letter “E,” largely supporting the thought of it being “Let You Down.” The track was later officially confirmed to be “Let You Down” through a separate tweet.

“Let You Down” hit No. 12 on the Billboard Hot 100 song charts, marking his first song to even hit the Top 20. It also hit No. 12 on Spotify’s Global Top 50 airing with over 2 million plays a day, and No. 6 on Spotify’s Global Top 50.

The track is the third and final single off of NF’s third studio album, Perception. NF originally teased this track on Instagram in August, however, he had removed it shortly there afterward.
