    Rump Shaker is still one of my all time favorite hip hop songs of the 90s. Perfectly represented the times. Back when everyone danced and still made it look cool.

      Hey did you ever do one on MC Brains from the old Biv 10 label? Matter of fact I wouldn't mind if you did one on Biv 10's East Coast Family led by Mike Bivins of New Edition... There's gotta be a lot of content from that crew. Thanks bro. Great video as usual.

    When someone asks me what it was like to live in the New Jack Swing Era, i tell them "You just had to be there". The late 80's and early 90's will never be matched.

    Wreckx-n-Effect made a timeless classic with Rump Shaker & they should have had a bigger career. Here's a fun fact: Bobby Brown's wife Alicia Ethridge Brown played the saxophone in the rump shaker video. You should do another short lived group next which is Nice & Smooth.

    I enjoyed your video but you failed to mention the beef with ATCQ over Phife saying " strictly hardcore tracks , not a New Jack Swing" on the " Jazz" from the " Low End Theory" album that resulted in members of Wreckxxx N" Effect & their entourage allegedly catching Q -Tip outside a nightclub in NYC and jumping him which resulted in him wearing that Hannibal Lecter like mask for the " Hot Sex On A Platter" video and the instrumental from that track was intentionally jacked from the Blackstreet song " Baby Be Mine" ...but Q Tip and ATCQ was backed up by the Native Tounges , Zulu Nation , and Violator Entertainment...apparently DJ Red Alert and Chris Lighty ( RIP) got in touch with Teddy Riley and even the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakahn had them sit down to talk with Him about squashing that beef to set a good example for the youth...Markell Riley apparently co produced " Ruff Neck" for MC Lyte in the early 90's too but from what I have heard ...just like " Rump Shaker" ...Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo allegedly helped ghostwrite and co produce that song too...meanwhile Teddy was busy working with Micheal Jackson and put their career on the back burner to concentrate on Blackstreet!

    • @KoTM25681

      According to Q-Tip himself the fight started differently. He stated in an interview that Wrecks and their crew were about to jump Prince Po from Organized Konfusion who was good friends with Tip. Tip saw the altercation and jumped in to back up Po and that's when he got sucker punched by a member of Wrecks crew.
