"Top Down" got recognition and airplay because of the fact that it had its own video at the end of Swizz Beatz's second single "Money in the Bank" and it is also featured on the video game Grand Theft Auto IV.
Swizz Beatz explained to MTV how the song was originally for Nas.
"The record was originally for Nas," he explained. "I got Nas' vocals already. But I can't do Nas, and his energy is not right on there. It would be dead weight. No disrespect, but it can't be dead weight if I can't make it feel like reality. I need the shit crazy. I need to shoot a video! It's gotta be another 'It's Me Bitches,' but bigger. I could easily pull a Nas card and have people be like, 'Nas is spazzing on the verse.' But it has to be a movie. I got it. It just gotta make sense. I can get Nas, Jay-Z and Jadakiss on that. I can do that. It's light work, but it's gotta make sense."[1]
On May 30, 2009 the song Nas recorded over the beat leaked entitled "Be Worried".
The song was featured in the second half of the music video for "Money in the Bank". In it Swizz Beatz is in front of a green screen "riding" a Lamborghini. After the video was released Swizz Beatz released the single on his Myspace.
