“Do It” is a song by American singer Toni Braxton. It was written by Braxton along with Percy Bady, Paul Boutin, and Antonio Dixon for her tenth studio album Spell My Name (2020), while production was helmed by Dixon. The R&B ballad was released as the album’s first single on April 6, 2020, also serving as Braxton’s debut with Island Records. It peaked at number 1 on the US Adult R&B Songs chart.

“No need to say you feel some kind of way
Just do what you need to do
Do what you need to do
He ain’t gonna change
If you take him back, it’s gon’ be the same
Just do what you need to do
Do what you need to do”

On May 8, 2020, Braxton’s team released the Zac Samuel Remix of “Do It” to her YouTube account, a house-fused uptempo remix of the song that was provided by British DJ Zac Samuel. On June 26, 2020, Braxton released another official remix featuring rapper Missy Elliott, which was produced by Elliott along with PromoBoi and Hannon Lane. In a press statement that preceded its release, Elliott, who had never worked directly with Braxton before, commented: “Toni’s team reached out to my manager and asked if I could produce a remix for her next single. They said, ‘Hey if Missy wants to rap on it we would love that too.’ So they sent me the record and my boy Hannon and I, sped the track up to a mid-tempo and re-arranged the music.” Elliott’s remix, along with Dixon’s original version, will be included on the standard version of parent album Spell My Name (2020).
