Exactly. Whenever I try to listen to new music I always end up going back and listening to 90s music. This new music just doesn't hit the same. 90s was the golden era of music.
@josephbishara4791 No they didn't blow up given the depth of their talent. They were both absolutely sold short just like Lady of Rage sold short on Death Row Records.
Missy, Timbaland, Ginuwine, Aaliyah, Magoo, Nicole Wray, Mocha, Tweet & Playa. Da Basement Crew was untouchable back in the 90's. R.I.P. Magoo, Aaliyah & Static. Never forgotten.
Everything about this song was perfect, from the beat, her voice, Missy’s background vocals and harmonies, also Timbaland coming thru with the dopest beat. The nostalgia was real listening to this song.
When this song first came out I really thought Nicole Wray could sing but it's actually Gina Thompson singing this song and her whole first album.. didn't realize she couldn't sing at all until she came out with that song "if I was ya girlfriend" song vocals sound totally different
Everytime I watch this video I think about how she said she kept telling ppl at school she was in the studio with Missy, Timbaland, Aaliyah etc but they called her a liar. She said they didn't believe her until her music video was on the TV during lunch at school. The BIGGEST FLEX EVER💅🏾🤣
For those who didn't know, Nicole Wray was the first artist ever signed to Missy Elliott's label The Goldmind Inc., and was expected to release a follow-up to this song's debut entitled "Elektric Blue" (2001) but it was never released because it kept getting pushed back due to Missy signing & promoting other artists under her label at the time. There were so many lost voices in the Goldmind that never got a fair shot; Nicole, Mocha, Torrey Carter, Gina Thompson, Soul Diggaz, Danja Mowf, Jessica Betts, So Def, Sider, Brianna Perry, Sharaya J, Tweet.
Both her and Lil' Mo should've made a bigger splash in R&B. I don't fault Missy at all because she put a lot of folks on through her label Goldmind, I just wish they had more exposure. Mo _still_ gets those songwriting royalty checks and airplay.
Every era is different, nostalgia is a good thing as long as you don't stay stuck in the past, cause' you gotta live in the moment, you gotta live in the here and now, and now there is still good music out there, you just have to seek it and pay attention.
@@mouhamehawel174the 90's early 2000's was still different. You had to go through proper channels to put out a song and music vid. Now you can just make on your phone an upload. Therefore there is a lot of quanity over quality now. You could not just put out some garbage in the 90's
This song is a timestamp for me. 1998 summer marked the ending of an era of my life. I have a lot to be thankful for..but it's bittersweet thinking back to then.
OMG ya'll she was only 17 years old when she did this song with Missy. Nicole Wray actually has a interview on here where she actually talks about this whole experience. She met Missy , Aaliyah and quite a few others. The kids at her high school thought she was lying when she told them about his until they rolled out the t.v and there she was in a whole music video looking and sounding gorgeous as ever.
that’s still one of the hardest intros male or female ever. salute mocha and nicole wray, peace to the beautiful and talented missy. and this might be timbo’s best beat arguably
I was 12 when this came out and heard it for the first time at the beauty supply store, lol. I still sing and dance to it like it was '98 all over again. Love the Missy, Timbaland, Ginuwine, Aaliyah, Playa era of music. So many hits. 🔥🔥
That simple “AHHHHH” sound was the whole anchor to this entire song. Timbaland and Missy always been some damn geniuses. Sigh. I miss these times. I was 18 ♥️
Very nostalgic for me. Reminds me of the good ole days. When we were young innocent and just wanted to hear music from the box music television you control
Nicole Wray ft. Missy"Misdemeanor" Elliot and Mocha ( Make It Hot) Release: June 2,1998 Recorded: 1997 Genre: R&B ·Hip-Hop soul Label: Elektra Songwrite(s) : Missy Elliot, Tim Mosley Producer(s) : Timberland Make It Hot reached #5 on the #BillboardHot100 and #2 on the R&B/Hip-Hop singles and earned gold certification #Classic 🔥
I always think about if missy gave her the attention she needed around this time how big she woulda been. Her voice was making them songs classics to this day. I just know she coulda been very successful if missy didn't backroom her after those two songs which to this day is everyone's top picks from this era
I haven’t heard this in over 20 years and it randomly popped in my head today and I think that crazy because I used to bump this all the time in 8th grade when this came out
Man listen I am 40! Man this was a whole vibe at the Skateum! Everybody was rapping Missy verse. I'm sitting on the side of the curb with a pocket full of herb. GOOD TIMES
Classic! 2023 and beyond!! I was a teenager when this song came out. I’m so happy to have lived through these era’s of timeless music. RIP AALIYAH STATIC MAJOR MAGOO Gone but NEVER 4gotten❤
I remember this being played a lot on BET, for some reason it's just pop in my head, just reminded me how good it was with R&B and Hip Hop music back in the late 90s
Feels like an entire different lifetime. I miss the 90s- early 200'0s. When you could actually see yourself in the stars, the chocolate was chocolate-in lol I love it. Had to come back for the vibes.
Although it’s 2021, whenever I wanna slip back into the 90’s time zone ( especially at a time when Aaliyah was still alive and making hits), all I gotta do is come back to this video
It's nice after being a Missy fan for 20 + years to discover something new from her that I haven't heard from her before, but has been around all this time

It's almost criminal that Lil'Mo and Nicole Wray didn't really blew up. Their talents and potential was MASSIVE.
Well lil mo was poppin in the early 2000’s but she’s still underrated
Don’t even make sense to me how they didn’t get bigger Nicole Wray dope & Lil Mo
The real talent behind this song is Missy and Timbaland and they really blew up.
Lil Mo did but I feel you.
@josephbishara4791 No they didn't blow up given the depth of their talent. They were both absolutely sold short just like Lady of Rage sold short on Death Row Records.

Nostalgia is crazy with this one.
Had a bunch of artists on one song Nicole Ray was fine af too

The reason their crew was so fire was they had producers everywhere. The musical minds in this crew were so creative.
Everytime I watch this video I think about how she said she kept telling ppl at school she was in the studio with Missy, Timbaland, Aaliyah etc but they called her a liar. She said they didn't believe her until her music video was on the TV during lunch at school. The BIGGEST FLEX EVER💅🏾🤣
Being from the same area as her and Missy,I remember, LoL😌

Opening line was dope asf
You imma make a song and put that as the opening
Just discovered her today…. Mannnnn this so goooooood
Me too and I'm 23 years old I replayed 4 times
Nicole Wray should've been a bigger star in R&B. Her music is dope. Her debut album is a banger, from start to finish.
Both her and Lil' Mo should've made a bigger splash in R&B. I don't fault Missy at all because she put a lot of folks on through her label Goldmind, I just wish they had more exposure. Mo _still_ gets those songwriting royalty checks and airplay.
@@DavidRichardson95 Yes! Lil' Mo is dope too.
Sylvia Rhône destroyed a lot of careers

Tell me about it
Music now will never be close to how it use to be back in the day. Missing 106 & Park days
Missy Elliott always had the ability to Add so much Swagg n Flava to the Mix.

that’s still one of the hardest intros male or female ever. salute mocha and nicole wray, peace to the beautiful and talented missy. and this might be timbo’s best beat arguably
I love the 90’s style. From the music, videos, make up, outfits, dancing. Everything was so bomb!! So lucky to have grown up in the 90’s.
remember.. it evolved from 80s rnb to a futuristic 90s style..
I miss tunes like this being new. So much fire back then.
They'll never know bout cuts like this between Busta Puff Pac Big Kast etc
I was 12 when this came out and heard it for the first time at the beauty supply store, lol. I still sing and dance to it like it was '98 all over again. Love the Missy, Timbaland, Ginuwine, Aaliyah, Playa era of music. So many hits. 🔥🔥

I was 15 and still love the track ❤
I was the same age when this came on. I used to always watch on BET
Same here 😫
90s rnb is so good. All these talented gorgeous woman with clothes on and class and most of all supporting one another.

Missy Elliot KNOWS Talent. I wish Nicole could've made way more music. Her voice is Beautiful and her song "I'm Looking" is My Joint 🔥🔥🔥
Real talk though. "I'm Looking" is the joint.
❤ love Missy for always looking out for the ladies in this messed up industry.
The bridge is insane 🤯🗣️🔥🎶
20 something years later and this joint still harder then dry paint!! Always love the shout out to the whole “Superfreinds” crew at the end!
