"Livin' It Up" is a song by American rapper Ja Rule featuring singer Case. It was officially serviced to US urban radio on September 10, 2001, as the lead single from Ja Rule's third studio album, Pain Is Love (2001), following several weeks of early airplay.[1] The song, produced by Lil Rob and Irv Gotti, samples Stevie Wonder's 1982 song "Do I Do".

"Livin' It Up" peaked at number six on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart and entered the top 10 in Australia, where it peaked at number six. In 2002, "Livin' it Up" received a re-issue in the United Kingdom and reached a new peak of number five on the UK Singles Chart after initially reaching number 27 in late 2001.
