Hit the Freeway was released as the lead-single from her fourth studio album More Than a Woman. The song, which features Loon, was written by Pharrell Williams and Loon himself, while production was handled by The Neptunes (Pharrell & Chad Hugo). It’s a song about an ex trying to rekindle with Braxton, but Braxton claims she’s not interested in him anymore.

The song received generally favorable reviews from music critics, who praised its catchiness and contagiousness, and picked it as a stand-out track. However, the song was considered to be a failure on the charts, reaching the top-forty in Canada, Sweden, Switzerland and UK, while only reaching number 86 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart.

The music video, directed by Charles Infante and Dave Meyers, was shot in Los Angeles in September 2002. There are several shots of Braxton driving down the freeway while her ex follows her.
