ong information

The song is about a confident girl who gets attention everywhere she goes. She sings to a guy telling him to "hit me up". "To hit up", a term popularized by users of the social networking website MySpace, refers to contacting a person via electronic means. In this case there is a romantic interest for the person being "hit up".

In the video the main basis is on the Happy Feet theme with Gia appearing in three different sets with dancers in the background while singing the song. The only indications of the song being on the Happy Feet soundtrack is when Gia is singing out in the front of a theatre and above her on the movies showing list is "Happy Feet", and also when in the middle of the video her backup dancers are seen in tuxedos and wearing costume penguin masks as they all dance in an arctic scene.

"Hit Me Up" was used as the opening theme for "Germany's Next Topmodel", Cycle 2.

The song was also in an episode of Gossip Girl Season 1 Episode 2, The Wild Brunch, when the cooks are getting ready for Bart Bass Brunch.
