"Post to Be" is a song by American singer Omarion featuring fellow American singers Chris Brown and Jhené Aiko from the former's fourth studio album, Sex Playlist (2014). The artists co-wrote the song alongside Ty Dolla $ign and producer DJ Mustard. The track was released as the album's second single on November 11, 2014.[1] Musically the song is a hip hop club track that is built over a clap-heavy West Coast production.[2] The song contains a "bouncy" production and samples Chaka Demus & Pliers' 1993 song "Murder She Wrote".[3] The word "post" is a sensational spelling of the word "supposed."

Commercially, the song peaked at number thirteen on the US Billboard Hot 100 and number five on the US Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. The track also made appearances on charts in Canada, Belgium and the UK. The song was later certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

An accompanying music video was filmed in Los Angeles and was co-directed by Omarion along with Jay Ahn and Taz. The video premiered on February 17, 2015, and depicts the three musicians dancing on an all-white backdrop.
