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.
The BOX! My auntie got a beating I remember, and still feel (I was 5) in 1991 for running my grandma’s phone bill up calling the box. What a triggering, yet funny memory!😂
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!

@@Gildedbutterfly1976 good afternoon flower 🌹 it’s true the vibe was different more direct the flirt on the club when you would hear a beat and you would dance 🕺 was instant plus the lyrics and the beat meant something not just disgrace like today and just show some ass ok and after that what…….😎?
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.
Yo my 80's babies where y'all at? We didn't have apps, smartphones, or Wi-Fi. We had great music that remains timeless. I know this sounds corny. But I wanna say thanks for all the thumbs-ups and your comments. We're the last of a dying breed. Stay safe and healthy Peace.
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...
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
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.
You ain't never lied on that one. You could actually dance and keep your britches on instead having to bank head bounce all the damn time. MC Lyte is SEXY AS HELL... however, she made it SEXY to keep something to the imagination and still rock it at the same time.
I am 53 years old woman and I never knew this song exist until I heard it on an OLD SCHOOL JAM radio station. Now, I've got to hear this song at least once a week. I always gave MC Lyte her props, but know this song has given me more respect for rap. Always luv some Missy Misdemeanor. LOL
