Salt N Pepa’s True Thoughts on Spinderella

[@MsNooneinparticular]

She's always been as much a part of the group as the other 2 to me. Never mind whether she's included in the name or not (it wouldn't sound right if she was). Group names aren't to be taken literally--people asking "which one's Kris and which one's Kross is one example. DJ's have always been a vital element of Hip Hop culture and aren't "interchangeable". That's dirty of them. Please reconsider, ladies. En Vogue broke up, a member of TLC passed... the last thing we need is for the last good female group to break up for no damn reason.

[@mojadah10]

Thats just it. She wasn't as much a part of the group. Salt n Pepa came up together (before success), made a name for themselves, found fame and had hits before Spin was brought into the mix. At some point they added her as a dj bc thay was the thing at the time. Every big rap act had a personal dj. I don't think they're being shady towards her. They just don't think she deserves 'equal' recognition bc she wasn't an equal part of the process. She wasn't in the trenches.

[@keepsit100atalltime9]

Doesn't matter how much she thinks she did for the group she is not a member. She worked for them, the contract was with them. They are the brand, they were platinum before her. And her success is bc of them. They didn't have to bring her to the forefront but they did bc they were trying to help her. They owe her nothing, if anything she owes them. I don't understand why this is so hard to get.

[@imho5485]

Spin was not included in the reality show. She made a guest appearance and took the ladies to dinner where Pep ordered “the most expensive bottle of wine.” SMH. I always considered Spin a full member of the group and it was a shame that they left her out of the biopic. It was also disgraceful with them leaving her out of Coming To America 2. Eddie should have insisted that Spin be invited!

🥺 After 30 years at a law firm, wouldn’t you expect to be considered a partner. When would they ever give her her just due of the legacy? I’m an 80’s baby, and S-N-P were my favorite group as the a kid, but I don’t respect how they did Spin at all. It’s not even the same without her.

[@HMRLTL]

Nope. If you'd worked at a law firm for 30yrs, you'd probably know better than to have the expection of being considered a partner without the first steps of being offered and accepting that position.

[@iwannaseeit1979]

I always recognized Spin as part of the group, and noticed the shift around Blacks Magic album where she was more prominent in the videos. Then when Very Necessary came out, she was full on RAPPING ON TRACKS. IDK why they would encourage this only to end up not considering her part of the group.

[@roshonbody3199]

She's doing more on that album because Salt and Pepa were pregnant. Pepa is pregnant during Expression and Salt is pregnant during Let's talk about Sex. If you listen to the title track Black's Magic, Salt even gives Pepa a shout out about her pregnancy. That was also a way for Salt and Pepa to help give Spinderella a bigger role than standing behind the turn tables.

[@donniereidjr]

I hope one day that Spin's net worth exceeds theirs by a few hundred million. I'm a huge fan of the group and loved 80s hip hop. I never regarded them other than a 3 person act. The DJ was just as important as the MCs. Together they were magic. I could never enjoy the group without Spin!

Spinderella is as much a part of hip hop history as any woman in the game. She could fill up a stadium by herself with just her to turntables right now. Her name is legendary and the love that her fans still have for her is also legendary because she was always a Class Act never thot.

[@Dimples718]

I said it once and I'll say it again, Spin is the third member point blank. Salt n Pepa is horrible for not acknowledging Spins contributions.

I’m the same age as them, and also from NYC. I can remember the love the city had for them before Spinderella arrived. And when she did I don’t remember people even noticing her for a long time afterwards. It was kind of like that for the DJ’s in groups or behind a solo artist, where DJ’s were like a visual aesthetic. I personally would have still loved Salt n Pepa with or without Spin, as I became a big fan before she was in the picture. But maybe that’s because I was local. She deserves for her contracts to be honored so she can get her money. But I agree DJ’s just don’t shine the same the as the artist. Fans don’t come out to see the DJ’s or the sound system people, even though they are a part of the show collectively, people come for the lyricists

[@keepsit100atalltime9]

Exactly! People don't understand how that works. Back n the day djs were like an accessory and everybody didn't have a DJ or acknowledge the DJ. SnP were platinum before this Spin came along, and they were a duo. Spin was employed by them, she worked for them. The fact that they brought her to the fore front says a lot about them. It was a girl empowerment move in a male dominated field. Spin was paid I'm sure for her services. She ended up leaving the group at one point and came back. Why come back if they were such horrible ppl.? It was explained on their reality show on BET Ladies Night w)SWV. I could tell Spin has some deep emotional issues. She threatened to leave the group again but they ended up beating her to the punch, then she got mad and took to social media and started a smear campaign against them.

[@CrowdSpectator24]

This was my understanding of the situation. So, I could see both sides. Sure SnP could have easily put everything aside and just took her in the fold and all, split it all equal and the fans would have thought that was "fair"... but realisticly, I think Spin knew what it was (business wise) but pushed for more anyway on the strength of time, sisterhood, their platform, and they stuck to the original understanding and deal, and Spin's feelings got hurt. I wish them all the best. But Spin could have also really thanked them for the platform and used that to make her way (which I believe they encouraged). Then I think it would have been justified to secure the name Spinderella and even negotiate (if possible) a little royalties off of some of the old memorabilia and art. Unfortunately, she was in the position to approach them humbly, not the other way around, and I believe it could have been a more favorable outcome for all of them. :/

In the 80's I was practicing djing as a young teen and I went to Tower Records and bought Salt N Pepper Album.I mixed the song "Push it"

Thank you spin

They did her wrong! There's no justification for how they treated her!

[@dirkdavenport9777]

Something similar happened with Jam Master,the label didn't sign him he got payed from shows that's why the group made songs featuring him as a f.u. to the label,that's why I believe the story how he died because he always had one foot in the street

[@hoodbeatz8067]

I don't see where they did her wrong her @...There was a whole other Spinderella before her...How is she going to sue them over a name that wasn't originally her's...As far as they were concerned being Spinderella was a was job description...A role to fill....Even though I loved Spin in the group...I loved Sslt-N-Pepa before her...When it was the original Spinderrella....Nobody ever even knew she was replaced until someone noticed & said something...I remember very well...She even quit the group before to follow other aspirations...So like I said...I don't see where they did her wrong @ (My Opinion)

My thoughts were like really girl you knew what you signed up for and then you try to sue them for a name that is not yours crazy

Firstly, I never knew that Salt-N-Pepa, Kid 'n Play, *and* Martin Lawrence worked together at Sears! That explains why Martin Lawrence was in the early House Party movies and that crappy Kid 'n Play cartoon. Secondly, it's shitty how Salt and Pepa never really considered (the second but iconic) Spinderella a member of their group. DJ Run/Rev. Run and DMC always considered Jam Master Jay the third member of theit group before he became an official member. That's why they broke up the group when he got murdered. They reunite every now and then but they've said that they can never fully reform without Jay!

Spin was a Vital and Necessary Member of the Female Trio Rap Group. Spin should have been included in Contract on the A Salt with a deadly Pepa album considering she pick up where the last D.J. ended. So not fair Spin Deserve better. Salt N Pepa Movie Hated it. Snap❤

[@khingofswordz43]

Back in late 80s I actually got a chance to see."Spinderella" (Dee Dee Roper) get busy on the 1's & 2's....I gotta say "Spin" can really DJ. She was doing the DJ tricks like what DJ Scatch, Jazzy Jeff, Joe Cooley, & Rhettmatic have done. There was only one other female that can stand toe to toe with the fellas DJing next to "Spin" there's "DJ Jazzy Joyce" from the Bronx... 💯🔥❤💯🔥❤💯🔥❤

[@deeboogie7188]

The way Salt N Pepa treated Spinderalla is sad and unfortunate. Spinderalla was a dynamic, integral part of the group and a legend in Hip Hop. Why do her like that? Very surprising of Salt / Cheryl as a "devout Christian" why be nasty to your fellow Black sister. Smh.

[@spirituallysafe]

We don't really know the full ins and outs of the situation. Christians do what is right in God's eyes, not necessarily what is popular with humans.

This is one of the most important lessons . I tryed too Teach my son about N an being young. thinking your friends are going to still be your friends 30 years from now over blood. I used to tell him you just like your mama always think N love you . They love you for what you got but I'm your daddy I always be around when them friends long and gone

[@deedarlene5633]

I grew up listening to them and the unique part was they were 3 females which represented girl power. I saw them take her from being a dj to dancing with them but the group is a duo not a trio. Spinderella could have been replaced as a female dj but not Salt or Pepa, Spin should receive recognition for projects she was on but they don't need to know include her in future negotiations They're a duo not a trio. Maybe their problem with her is she seem too entitled and a little ungrateful at the opportunity these women gave her. Financially, shes not doing bad.

[@craigjonesISno.1]

I respectfully disagree. Spin IS part of Salt-N-Pepa. When they eventually go into ANY music hall of fame, they are ALL going in, not just Salt and Pepa.

[@JohnWick-gl6mw]

You're trippin HARD ! We all knew from that Era that is was Salt , Peppa AND Spinderela ! When you saw them you saw Spin ... She was a significant part of the group ...Cut it out ....

[@keepsit100atalltime9]

You are correct! From a business standpoint Spin was not apart of the brand, she worked for SnP. She signed the contract to work for them not with them. Had it not been for SnP we probably wouldn't know who Spin is. Because of them she got some exposure, they didn't have to do that. Female rappers were/are rare and female djs were/are even rarer. I'm sure she was compensated for her work but there is no way I would give her 1/3 of the money either. They were the ones in the boardrooms taking the hits and they were platinum before she even came along. If anything she needs to thank them for their help.

[@davidwheeler3201]

@@keepsit100atalltime9 you're tripping, with your logic run DMC was only about 2 dudes,but the world and them considered Jay as a brother and gave him his prop's

[@keepsit100atalltime9]

@@davidwheeler3201 So is this business or is this personal? The fact of the matter is that Spin signed a contract to work for SnP. Whatever that entailed that's what she signed up for. What ppl keep forgetting is the era they came out in. Female rappers were very rare, female djs were even rarer. Had it not been for SnP shouting out Spin and bringing her to the forefront (which they didn't have to do) no one would know who she is. Why is this so hard? The brand is SnP, 2 ladies. They are the one's who put in work to make that name what it is today. They didn't need Spin. They were platinum before she came along. I'm sure she was paid for any additions she added but she is not 1/3 of the group. And they have the contract to prove it. Like I said she needs to be apologizing to them. If they were so evil why did she come back after leaving? Why didn't she protest way back then. Somebody probably got in her ear. It's clear to me that she doesn't understand business.

I like Spinderella, but she was not an integral part of the group. She was the DJ. The group is all about salt n peppa. People need to understand their roles.

Shut up. You misspelled Pepa and got Spin's name right.

Salt and pepper are dead wrong to spin. I will never support salt and pepper without spin. Spin was a real DJ icon, the first black female. God doesn't like UGLY!!! Salt and pepper knew better than that. Period

Spinderella first made her rapping debut on the Blacks Magic album (those songs just weren't released as singles).This was also the first album where she wrote and produced on. Its sad that money clouded SnP's judgement and resulted in them trying to discredit Spin's contributions to the group smh

[@thabigcohuna]

[@aboynamedgoo4466]

Yes, before What A Man she rapped on a couple of songs on their 3rd album called Black’s Magic.. (Negro wit an Ego, the title track , Black’s Magic, I Don’t Know & I like to Party.) I think It was around the time when Pepa was having problems with Hurby, the producer ,and I think she was also having her daughter. Spin would also go on to Rap on a couple of Movie Soundtracks ( The Player’s Club) and also Very Special with Big Daddy Kane. It just baffles me at how they did her and I absolutely love Salt N Pepa … just a jacked up situation 🤦🏾‍♂️😩

[@jessified619]

On Blacks Magic, Pepa was pregnant with her son Tyran so Spinderella filled in and helped Salt with writing and production (Hurby was involved in other projects and the label was pressuring them to finish the album).

Salt n peper was established b4 spin comes around,so to them she didn't made them,she came in N contributied, n made her mark,so salt N peper still would b wt out spin regardless.

[@keepsit100atalltime9]

Exactly! They didn't need her. She didn't write their music. And they were a duo before her. Why would they change things bc of her? She needs to be thanking them for the exposure that she got bc of them.

[@natashakay6555]

IT all comes down to money. They didn't want to share the money three ways with Spin. But fans know that Spin played an important part of their success as a group. I feel that they did Spin wrong, and I've lost some respect for Salt and Pepper for doing Spin the way that they did. SMDH
