It was released in early 1990 as the lead single from their debut album Born to Sing (1990). The song was produced by Denzil Foster and Thomas McElroy, and composed by the former two and all members of En Vogue. ProductionThe song opens with an a cappella rendition of the Motown standard "Who's Lovin' You", written by Smokey Robinson and originally recorded by his group, The Miracles. It features lead vocals by Cindy Herron and Terry Ellis vocals on the introduction. The song also contains a guitar sample from "The Payback" by James Brown. Commercial performanceFollowing its release, the single peaked number one on the Billboard Hot R&B Singles, number two on Billboard Hot 100 (behind Glenn Medeiros and Bobby Brown's "She Ain't Worth It"), and number one on Billboards Hot Dance chart. "Hold On" was also a hit in several countries worldwide, reaching number 5 in the United Kingdom and New Zealand, number 6 in Germany, number 10 in the Netherlands, and number 12 in Austria. "Hold On" was the top R&B hit on the Billboard Year-End chart for 1990,[2] and was the eighth most-successful pop hit on the Billboard Hot 100 Year-End Chart. En Vogue performed the song at the 2008 BET Awards with Alicia Keys. In 2007, the song's chorus was used and performed by Pharrell on Jay-Z's song "Blue Magic" The song was also sampled in the Terminator X song "Buck Whylin'. Critical receptionBillboard wrote about the song: "Step back and give 'em some room! Quartet of future divas fresh from the Foster/McElroy stable deliver intricate, tight harmonies with a dash of sass on this groove-laden debut. Can't wait for the album."[3] Steve Daly, writing for Spin magazine, called the song "perfect for those warm evening on the stoop" and felt that the "exotic melody takes its cue from Soul II Soul, while the rhythm section does a slow grind in 95 percent humidity with no AC."[4]Impact and legacyThe Daily Telegraph ranked "Hold On" at number 47 in their Top 50 Dance Songs list in 2015, adding:"R&B girl group En Vogue broke through with this club classic. A sharp acapella rendition of Motown standard Who's Lovin You leads into a hip-hop beat with a funky bass line, horn and piano sounds. "You've got to hold on, to your love", the girls proclaim, and it is their powerful singing that carries this one."[5] Formats and track listings{{col-begin}}{{col-2}}
