"Wet" is the official lead single from hip-hop artist Snoop Dogg's eleventh studio album Doggumentary. The original version was produced by The Cataracs. "Wet" reached #40 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, #18 on the Hot Rap Songs and #13 on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles. A remix to the song, entitled "Sweat", was released by French disc jockey David Guetta, on March 4, 2011.
"Wet" was written by Snoop Dogg along with The Cataracs, who produced the song. Snoop Dogg specifically recorded the song for Prince William of Wales' bachelor party in London, United Kingdom, after he had been asked on request by the British Royal Family - who are avid fans of the rapper - to perform at the event. Titled "Wet", Snoop spokespeople bill the song as a sequel to 2008's "Sexual Eruption". Produced by The Cataracs producers of the number-one single "Like a G6", Snoop spoke of the gift "When I heard the [British] royal family wanted to have me perform in celebration of Prince William's marriage, I knew I had to give them a little something." He continued, "'Wet' is the perfect anthem for Prince William or any playa to get the club smokin'." The song was premiered on Snoop's SnoopDogg.com website at precisely 4:20 pm PST, November 30. The official remix, featuring Jim Jones and Shawty Lo, was released on February 8, 2011 as a part of Snoop Dogg's Puff Puff Pass Tuesdays giveaway.
The second official remix features production by French DJ David Guetta. This version is entitled "Sweat", and was released on March 4, 2011. The remix interpolates Felix's "Don't You Want Me". A dub remix, which features production by both David Guetta and Afrojack and was released on May 13, 2011.
