In the 1980's, everybody was rapping. Even those of us that weren't in the music business, and I would sit in my room and play rap music and rhyme all day long, and my mom would say, "Girl, turn that radio down." A lot of parents were complaining, but it kept some teenagers off the streets, and it kept me dreaming. My favorite girl rap group was Salt-N-Pepa, and in those days, it was pronounced on the radio that rap music was going to be banned, and that's when I began to write my own rap song thinking Salt -N-Papa.

(Song)

Salt-N-Pepa and DJ Spinderella.
The Hip-Hop/rap trio from New York City, New York.
They were formed in 1985 and was one of the first-female rap groups. The group won the 1995 Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group. They had great hits like their song,"Let's Talk About Sex" which was a huge hit. "Push It" was another great hit. It helped their 1986 album "Hot, Cool, and Vicious" sell over one million copies. I'll never forget their rap song like "Tramp".

"Shake Your Thang" and "Get Up Everybody (Get Up)" were my two favorite music videos from Salt-N-Pepa: songs from their album "A Salt With a Deadly Pepa". They went right out of one video into another telling their rap story. Hurby Love Bug and Kid-N-Play played the police in the "Shake Your Thang" video and captured Salt-N-Pepa. They Kept them in prison all night for dirty dancing. When they were let go at the end, they met Spinderella, changed clothes magically, and went into the video, "Get Up". My favorite mini movie from Salt-N-Pepa.

The Rap Trio had class. They always looked great in clothing and fashion. They changed the look of hip hop.

Salt-N-Pepa started out in 1985 and lasted all the way up to 1999. Sometimes I still hear about them doing things together for special occasions. They are the First Ladies of hip hop and have longevity.......
