[@ThanksGod-er1ky]

I used to sit in the kitchen and make my tapes crazy part only heard the song 1 time since now ❤

[@wmadoro]

I knew that I heard this cut in the 80s before LL dropped his cut in '95. Both cuts still bang.

[@biglou1315]

Indeed.

[@dramahawkpromotions9621]

Yes I was hype when LL remade it. I was like oh that's the song from the girl. I didn't know her name. Love how life comes full circle.

[@ultimatedarkknight4835]

Before Lil Kim, before Cardi B and Megan , before Adina . . . . LeShaun was that lyrical freak

[@kadubois25]

I knew I wasn't going crazy my 8 or 9 year old self first heard this on 98.7 KISS🤣 FM back in New York!. I knew this came out before LL used the beat I just could never find it thanks for posting wow!

This was the FIRST nasty song I ever heard played on radio

[@gb.recordings]

This song came out when I was seven years old and I remember hearing this song and I was looking for this song for years I heard the LL Cool J version and got confused but Grace Jones had it first the name of the song is Jamaican guy or something like that

[@dramahawkpromotions9621]

Yes it was

[@53jdrobinson]

I been telling people for years that LL Cool J version was not the original rap track or hook. This never got the airplay all over the country the way it did in New York City. And you only heard it if you listened to 98.7 Kiss fm---KOOL DJ RED ALERT or 107.5 WBLS-MR. Magic and Marley Marl on Fridays or Saturday nights.

[@escaton74]

really you've been telling this for years !

[@atyiab1]

I did that's how I remembered the song from 98.7 back in the hey day🥰

[@PeekaBooo24]

I remember listening this on 98.7 Kiss FM when it came out. It actually sampled Grace Jones’ “My Jamaican Guy”; L later samples this song. Go figure…

[@RalphDaVillain]

Growing up, those DJs u mentioned played this song less than 10 times. It was too x-rated.

[@garysvan]

Yeah but when LL did doing it he got Leshaun on the track so it was known back then.

[@overstandinggod3410]

DJ Red Alert played this and Jungle Brothers "The Promo" when this came out

[@burgundy9153]

This joint brings back so many memories. The kids would be blasting it in the back of the school bus after school!

[@matthew_asmr1857]

Would love to have experienced america in those days!

[@Dilexwunrecords]

Yes this was on my 98.7 Kiss Mastermix. Dj Red Alert, " Yo daddy we can do this!" 1988 Pre dates Lil Kim, Foxy Brown, and Nikki Minaj

[@overstandinggod3410]

pezgatlin Yes, I recorded it in '88 off of Kiss too. "DJ Red Alert goes berserk!"

I always loved this song. Way before LL Cool J dud it over. This song here was the original

[@deepseatedenterprise]

"THE ORIGINAL", this still sounds good; they don't mention or play this enough when "GOING BACK", I guess there's too many young D.J.'s, they don't know! #RESPECT

[@dramahawkpromotions9621]

Word they dont I remember when L came out with this. I was like wowww there it goes after all these years. I just didn't know her name. The song was on one of those street mixtapes. My pops used to play.

[@bryanwarner561]

This was a "B" side that's why. VMB, MTV Raps and Rap City (original) and radio were bumping "Ready Or Not" instead. This joint took off in the clubs because of the content.

[@garysvan]

Listen to Grace Jones My Jamaican Guy. That's the original

[@meechesong2891]

Yoooooo this here had me thinking back in the 80’s so young and like WOW LOL. “You get a little wild when you get a little older” yes yes lol this song was that song. So glad to find it.

[@83mosco]

Yes! Just learned this. Was just speaking of the fact that it was actually a duet but L.L gets all the credit. Which after researching lead me here after finding out she came out with this jam first after sampling Grace Jones "My Jamaican Guy". Also found out the sample was originally created for Biggie Smalls!

[@papesbellinger6586]

She’s the female on LL version people 🤦🏽‍♂️

[@Shateek3]

This track was official! 10 years before LL dropped his re-make..

The first time I heard this, I was in junior high. Rap music was just starting to get a song or two on regular radio, but all the way at the end of the dial on AM there was a channel that played underground rap. I recorded this on a cassette. I literally knew every word. It was so exciting as a pre-teen to say all those sex words I would never say in a song. I just couldn't let my Mom hear me 😂😂

[@RahBrooklynShaky]

I remember hearing this the first time on whbi the awesome,2 show. N the supreme team show in the early 80s stood up recording the shows at 2am woth my tapes ready every time they talk i pause then unpause then i started to make copies a mixtape at.the age of 12.

I remember when this first came out it was so scandalous that it had to get played multiple times at parties, people went NUTS over this. Not to mention I think this was the first hip hop song to sample "My Jamaican Guy", which helped because the breakbeat was crazy on its own.

[@biggmandem1]

Lesser known fact, Leshaun is the same chick on Cool J's song. That's why he put her on the track,' cause he flipped the beat.

This and "Doin It" shows the difference between 80's rap and 90's rap. LL's version was more polished and had a better flow to it. This was more raw and rugged. Appreciate both, but I fux with that 90's rap a little more.
