"
Ride for You" is an
R&B ballad written by
Bryan Michael Cox, Kendrick "Wyldcard" Dean, and Adonis Stropshire for

Danity Kane (2006). Co-produced by Cox and Wyldcard, it was released as the album's second single in fall 2006 (see
2006 in music). The song peaked at number 78 on the U.S.
Billboard Hot 100.
Release
"Ride for You" was shown on a
Making The Band 3 episode. It was shown that Aubrey had trouble during the recording process.It also showed Aundrea having relationship problems, which ultimately led to her breaking up with her long time boyfriend. The week that the album was released, "Ride for You" made it onto the charts from downloads at #78. "Ride for You" was chosen at the second single through fan voting polls. The single hasn't had the success that their previous single "
Show Stopper" had. However this could partly be due to the lack of promotion. Despite the lack of success in the U.S., on MTV Asia, the single managed to stay at #1 on the Top 20 chart for 7 weeks running in addition to being the #10 ranked video of the Top 100 videos of 2007.
Music video
The
music video for "Ride for You" was directed by Marcus Raboy, and was filmed in various locations throughout
Los Angeles, California on
November 3,
2006. The edited video debuted on
Total Request Live on
December 5,
2006.
Thematically, the video deals with the four seasons. It begins with
Aundrea Fimbres leaving her home in a summer vignette. After singing her verse, Fimbres enters fall and joins
Aubrey O'Day for a walk through the chorus. During
Dawn Richard's verse, Fimbres and O'Day leave fall behind and join Richard under an umbrella on a late fall/early winter city street. The three of them then enter winter where they find
Shannon Bex and
D. Woods. The five of them sing the chorus and enter spring right as D. Wood's verse starts. At the end of the video, when D. Woods does her ad-libing, the five women of Danity Kane meet up with their men and the video ends with beauty shots of each of the girls. The video has peaked at #5 on
TRL which is a little lower than their past video
Show Stopper, which peaked at #2.
