"Playas Gon' Play"
Song
B-side"Never Let 'Em Go"

"Playas Gon' Play" is the second and final single from 3LW's self-titled debut album 3LW. The single was released in May 2001. Although it was a favorable song among fans, the song only peaked at number 81 on the Billboard Hot 100. It performed moderately on the UK Singles Chart where it peaked just outside the top twenty at number 21. The song featured lead vocals from former group member Naturi Naughton.

Music video

The video was directed by Darren Grant on February 17, 2001. It received decent video play on TV channels such as BET and MTV and enjoyed some success on BET's Top Ten Video Countdown, 106 & Park and MTV's TRL. The video debuted on TRL on March 7, 2001 at number 7 and stayed on the countdown for 11 days and peaked at number 5. The video fell off the countdown on May 18, 2001.

The video starts with the girls being dropped of at a tropical beach resort. Once they have been dropped off, they change into their bathing suits and walk through the resort. As they walk through the resort, boys are looking at them. Throughout the video are scenes of the girls hanging out on a balcony watching over the resort. Another portion of the video shows the girls performing a dance routine in front on the pond at the resort at night.
