As per "Push It," it occurred to me that they the DJs always played that gem at the middle school dances. I was fairly sheltered, so I'm almost positive Salt N Pepa played a formative part in my understanding of sexual intercourse . . . so weird . . .

"a strange time to divest yourself of a superb product, thus potentially divesting the city of some of the best writers and editors in the state." I'm just your average PW reader and I don't know what this means . . . something I need to know?

I accidentally ran across your article because I was looking up information on Salt-N-Pepa. Although I am not always the hugest fan of hip hop for various reaons and for various songs, it is minorly offensive that you called this song "horrible". Unfortunately, this song might not have had the best message; however, Salt-N-Pepa are legends and icons in their own right. They were the forerunners of females making a significant mark on the hip hop genre. I hope that I did not offend you with my comment, but it would be nice if you could find a better way to disagree with a song that is a classic in the hip hop world even though it might not be a classic to you.

I ont think push it was a bad song. Matter of fact it was a hit. They didnt even think it was going to be a hit song they actually wanted their song tramp to be a hit. And i think its really funny how as much as you claim you hate that song, when the beat comes on you'll never forget it. And thats what it's all about. So you can keep on hating on them, but in the end who's getting paid...LoL(Not you)

I can't believe you would make that comment about Salt and Pepa. I think that was rude. I mean half of the love songs in the world are about sex. Sex is not offensive. Everybody does it that is how the world keeps growing. It is when it is abused or used inappropriately when it is a problem. And Salt and Pepa, along with other rappers back then, at least had some tact with their songs back then. Because I loved that song when I was a teenager. And I didn't realize it had nothing to do with sex until I was grown. So that means they were tactful in their choice of words. Unlike a lot of songs now a days. If some child knew they were talking about sex back then; maybe you need to be more concearn with what's going on in their home.
