MUSIC THAT MATTERS – “Lyric of the Day”

(Music Cut #1)

Released on this day in 1992…

all Wreckx-N-Effect wanted to do…

was zoom-a-zoom-zoom-zoom…

with “Rump Shaker.”

(Music Cut #2)

The song was produced by Teddy Riley…

the New Jack Swing mastermind.

But behind all that rump shaking…

one future superstar was getting his first professional writing credit.

(Music Cut #3)

Before Pharrell Williams was making the world “Happy”…

he was helping Wreckx-N-Effect shake the room.

So “Rump Shaker” isn’t just some goofy hit from ’92

It’s also part of the origin story

for Pharrell and The Neptunes.
