"Right Now" is a song by American singer Mary J. Blige. It was composed by English musicians Sam Smith, James Napier, and brothers Guy and Howard Lawrence from electronic music duo Disclosure along with Blige for her thirteenth studio album, The London Sessions (2014), featuring production from the latter. Capitol Records released "Right Now" as a buzz single preceding the album's release on November 24, 2014. Musically, the song is a mid-tempo groove dominated by deep house beats and UK garage. Lyrically, it exudes a displeased woman letting her lover know that she is fed up with his ways, and is planning on making changes.

"Right Now" peaked at number one on the US Dance Club Songs chart, becoming Blige's fifth song to do so. Numerous remixes and cover versions of the song were made, most notably reworks by Basement Jaxx and Simon Neale. Blige performed the song on several television and award show ceremonies, such as Later... with Jools Holland, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and BBC Radio 1Xtra.

"Right Now" was written by Blige and English musicians Sam Smith, James Napier, and brothers Guy and Howard Lawrence from electronic music duo Disclosure. Production of the song was helmed by Disclosure, while American record producer Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins was consulted for vocal production. "Right Now" was recorded at Metropolis Studios and at MusicBox Studios in London. Production of the song was motivated by "F for You", the fourth single from Disclosure's debut studio album, Settle (2013). In late 2013, Blige saw the duo's single their Vevo video site, and got in touch with them about covering the song. The resulting duet, largely composed by Blige, became a top ten hit on the UK Dance Chart. Inspired by its response, Blige initially hoped to record an extended play with the duo, though her label encouraged her to enhance recording overseas and soon it was announced that Blige would move to London to experiment with a new sound with a host of young British acts.
