If they ever make a movie of the Marvel Comics characters Cloak & Dagger, this should be the theme song. Peace.

[hundredthough]

@MuzikJunkyAES

[ripfilmz1]

Hands down the greatest female rapper of all time.......Y? she set the standard and let females know how to come hard and be lady like

[hundredthough]

[JukeBoxJunkie10]

I love Roxanne Shante. She is always one of the top 5 females in my book. She influenced the whole game.

[blacksultan85]

RUNAWAYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ctbadcop]

She got her school paid for by a record company because it was in her contract. Too bad all kid stars dont have a clause like that. She was a great rapper and a very smart chick. Always loved her music

[drfporvida]

CLASSIC OLD SCHOOL NYC RAP !

[MuzikJunkyAES]

@ctbadcop Unfortunately, that PhD thing seems to be a hoax. Peace.

[theaznlvr]

@MuzikJunkyAES

ok faggot she not like you nit LMAo

[creamywhip]

is this the original version of queen of rox they sound so similar

[MuzikJunkyAES]

That's rather touching that the phone number for the National Center for Runaway and Missing Exploited Children is on the label. Peace.

[MuzikJunkyAES]

Shanté's PhD was both good and bad for hip-hop: bad because she doesn't rhyme anymore, and good because it shows everyone else that emcees are smart. Now if only she'd rhyme in between seeing her patients! We need her to show those wack Casio motherfuckers how it's done--they have no business making hip-hop music! Peace.

[jakec360]

She never actually got a PhD, someone recently researched into it,, the college that she apparntly went to had no record of her ever being there.

Apparntly she claimed she had a PhD, because of domestic violence... dunno how that works, but yeaah.. =/

[hundredthough]

@jakec360: actually, she claimed that cornell university didn't have any records of her attending school because she registered under an alias due to a domestic violence situation. she later came clean and admitted that was a lie and that she never attended cornell university.

[FriedChkn4Eva]

interesting..

[1rEalFaG]

"Listen to me cuz i'm good for your health"The best rap line ever,male or female.

[luigiclone]

Ol' skool! I've been looking for this song forever!

[ghettobeats]

I bought this record when it first came out!

[datrealdunn]

I never heard this before yo this is exclusive and shante is good for the freestyle joints no other female rapper can say they made songs freestylin!
