"Everybody" is a song written and recorded by American singer Madonna and produced by DJ Mark Kamins. In the early 1980s, while living in New York City and collaborating with former boyfriend Stephen Bray, Madonna recorded a demo containing four dance tracks, including "Everybody". Without a recording contract, she promoted the tape herself by visiting nightclubs and persuading DJs to play it. At Danceteria, she met Kamins, who championed the song after its enthusiastic reception on the dance floor and helped her secure a deal with Sire Records. After being introduced by label president Seymour Stein, Madonna signed with the label shortly after meeting A&R executive Michael Rosenblatt.
