"Push It to the Limit" is a pop/R&B song performed by Corbin Bleu, a young American singer-actor closely associated with The Walt Disney Company and its projects.
Made to cross-promote the Disney film Jump In! (released January 12, 2007), "Push It to the Limit" was released on the Disney Channel on Thanksgiving Day, 2006, and on Radio Disney the following Saturday. According to a press release from Walt Disney Records, this single and the other songs on the album are:
...part of the new music genre dubbed "pop-hop" for its blend of pop and hip-hop music styles [...] "Push It to the Limit," the lead track from the Jump In! album, also will be featured on Corbin Bleu's debut album Another Side, available on Hollywood Records April 17, 2007.
According to an analysis by the Knoxville News Sentinel:
...using a multi-media approach to corner the youth market [...] Disney keeps rolling with the soundtrack for "Jump In!" [...] The urban/pop album is a methodical appeal to the targeted market, but not so formulaic that it fails. In fact, there's enough of an edge to most of these tracks that parents and older siblings won't be put off—at least not initially—if they're exposed to the soundtrack. [...] Hip-hop meets electronic dance music while choruses brand the refrains with heavy repetition, and happily there's not much namby-pamby filler that inevitably seems to bog down music for this demographic. Bleu confidently punches his way through "Push It to the Limit"...
