i remember the big box braids back in the day. Us sisters were so cute with our ethnic hairstyles back then. Now, nobody pays atention to you unless your hair is bleached with a precision cut.
This song was featured on the film A Low Down Dirty Shame Starring Keenan Ivory Wayans of In Living Color Fame, Charles S. Dutton of Roc Fame, Gregory Sierra of Sanford and Son and Barney Miller Fame, Salli Richardson Whitfield and Future Mrs. Will Smith-Jada Pinkett
@FAUDEEH1988 Its just always been on my PC for years, but im sure if you google "Raja nee - turn it up download" you will find a link May b even amazon.com
@helluva1 I LOVE "Turn It Up" and always wondered what happened to your sister, Raja-Nee. Her vocal in this great song is unique in that it is both smooth and rough at the same time, especially at the end with all that attitude! Would love to know more about the artist - where is she from? What's she doing now?
was watching Low Down Dirty Shame, and I heard this song, and I couldn't remember who sang this song, but it was on the tip of my tongue, this is hot track!
I love the 90s. It was the best time...I was a kid (1991) but I can only imagine how it was to be a teenager! Being raised on music like this...no wonder y i dont listen to mainstream nor this new stuff. It's something about the 90s vibe, beat, flow, everything! I will forever love and miss everything about it.
o my gosh! ain't heard this jam or seen the video in ages. this jam was da bid'niss back in da day. can remember look'n out for the video on MTV top 10 countdown everyday back in...like..1994?? O MY GOSH! can't believe this was almost 20 years ago. wow!
@RankinMsP Same here. First time I saw this video too. Really liked this back in the day. It's amazing how many groups and artists sampled the Isley Bros 'You Make Me Say It Again' bass line in the 90s. This tune, 'Hip Hop Hooray', 'Crossroads' by Bone Thugs, Mark Morrison's' Trippin'. It worked each time though. They just had to speed it up or slow it down. The 'Here we Go' chant is so 90s too, along side 'Hey, ho, hey, ho' whilst waving your hands in the air like you just don't care.
i knew all these artistes sampled an old song but i never knew what the old song was all these years. even an old song on Destiny's Child's 1st CD called "Second Nature" samples the bass line from that Isley Brothers song. i think that Destiny's Child song is on youtube too
Man I love this song......I heard it the other day on the radio and was like I have to go to youtube and look it up....Glad I did it always puts me in a good mood...Thanx.......
I want the highest quality of this video or at least better quality video and audio. I hunted down an MP3 and I would actually encode the video again with this audio on it.
But I just wish I had a real good quality of the video to do it with
Unreal! The gem off the Low Down Dirty Shame soundtrack -- was a youngster in the early '90's in PHX, and this song was a major pre-bar warm-up for me...LOVE IT!!
@youngshotta93 Yea lol i had no idea that this song was out until i played that game and heard it since then i tried to find it and couldnt i played doa extream beach volleyball in 2005 and it took me until now to find it lol better late then never
ah, the first half of the 90s. Lots of songs had this sound, and were perfect for the summertime. This was right before the crappy boy bands starting taking over the industry, and music overall started sucking. And the industry is still sucking overall to this day.
been looking for this song forever bought the cd off Amazon two years ago lost it gonna buy another one..takes me back to my high school days in africa
Hey everybody, it's me Raja-nee' and I just wanted to Thank you all for so much love! I have some new music coming out soon and because I have received so much love from all of you hit me up and I'll hit you with one of the tracks! Peace and again I appreciate all of the love even if I live in the projects and work at KFC LOL, Raja
