That guy =Stevie J Productions. Literally that's what brought me here. Looking Up his Production Catalog. Besides being known for beating Joseline Hernandez Ass on mtv/vh1. The guy produced some iconic Hits from the 90s Golden age of Hip-hop.
I remember in 1996 when the box was on TV and you had to call in to request to see a video. I would wait up consistently just to see this video come up. What a beautiful time to witness great music.
This was Missy Elliott first appearance in front of the camera rapping with the legendary queen MC Lyte, and I was a fan ever since. Love the Diana Ross Upside down sample here!

Looooove Missy Elliott's background harmonies. Used to think it was by Gina Thompson but was well surprised it was Ms. Demeanor. Love her crazy versatile talent
I'll always love Missy Elliott. Every record she records and touch sounds so good. This was such a classic back in the day. MC LYTE flow and voice is so legendary.
Even in 2023 this song is still fun it always cheers me up and reflect on the mad sh!t I've done since the 90 I'm 54 now but songs like this always bring out the child in me.😂😂don't ever loose you're inner child.
i didn't hear this in '96, but I've been instantly teleported back to & 7yrs old (1980) when Miss Diana Ross sang "Upside Down". This is one funky remix with the rap laid over. Missy E can do no wrong! MC Lyte an' Puffy OK too.
King Vis Hell yes!!! I LOVED when the producers used to let it known that they were a part of the song etc....like when Rodney Jerkins would say "darkchild" or Timbaland used to have his Lil' sayings. Maaaaan lil shit like that is what I miss from back then music frfr #ThoseWereTheDays

Same! These were the good ol' days, including Playstation, N64, back when MTV fucking had videos still, and watching movies on VHS, not being tracked everywhere we go... Good times.
81! Back when headphones were for people who love music and not for fashion. And when you discovered other artists and producers through liner notes...
ookkaaaayyeeee, really it's straight up hard-ass MC'ing, she can stand up to any man. I feel like I can feel her hard ness, or her heartness, that's what she got. just bad-asssss, 5-star general.
And it _still_ knocks in 2024. That's what you call timeless music.

A natural beauty.
Indeed!
MC Lyte is sexy.
Yep...hair is always laid!
Missy was so lit back in the 90's..

Yes baby.
MC Lyte and Salt N Pepa, paved the way....and now these newbies are reaping the rewards.
@@polyprinz I know I know. Most of them don't deserve it. Yes I said it, don't deserve it at all.
For me it’s always something about the way the beat dropped at the beginning of Missy’s verse 🔥
MC Lyte is absolutely one of the prettiest women on the planet. She looks a 100 times better in her 50"s than she did in her 20's!
Lying
Gotta love the 90s.
Diana Ross~Upside down

Two MC’s with finesse and flow that’s what missing from the dead hip hop like Nas said that we have today 😎✌️🇬🇷
Absolutely, George Makiaveli
This Hip Hop nowadays is robotic and soulless 🥲
I could not agree more. We had the best music back then.

Denoviase Walters actually Roxanne Shante was the 1st.
i always loved Lyte's voice. Her voice cuts like a knife. Like a combination of a knife and a hammer. Hits like an axe I guess! She's a great rapper.
George S exactly.. Her tone is so good. She can be harsh yet sexy and smooth
This is real hip hop 💯🔥
