  • This song was on repeat when I was in college. Boy if could turn back the hands of time!

  • this one of slickest samples i've ever heard. I didn't even know he sample it this song till I looked this song up by corrensdence I love SWV lol. But real talk I thought the weeknd was singing the sample since he co-wrote the song.

  • @suspink13, That is because the beat on 'Shot For Me' is slowed down and faded, but he did sample this beat though.

  • I just knew Drake sampled this song when I first heard it. Love it!

  • I wonder if the ladies "Own" the rights to any of their songs. If they do, at least they would get "something". I heard that then and En Vogue sold Millions but ended up broke. Is that true? Also isn't it awful about T-Boz declaring Bankruptcy for the Second Time.

  • I'm 19! I grew up on SWV and the new jack swing era. I have their albums. Drake didn't bring me here but I knew he sampled it.

  • At 0:02, for a sec I thought she was wearing Bugles for nails.

    Love this song BTW.

  • idk what any one is talking about i just went and herd his song shot for me and sound NOTHING CLOSE!!!!!! to this song what so ever

  • @suspink13 Listen to like 2:40 .. because I thought the same thing. LOL

  • the awkward moment when a drake song didnt bring you here. i grew up listening to SWV lol

  • THIS WAS THE SHIT!!!!!!!

  • I rember this song from the 90s and SWV is the group!! Why would Drake ever bring me to a 90s song! Maybe for you 18 and younger kids...but not me!

  • I remember this joint!!! I was a 90s baby

  • IT'S REALLY SAD THAT YOUNG FOLKS WILL NEVER KNOW WHAT REAL MUSIC IS BECAUSE THEY WERE BORN DURING THE ERA OF BULLSHIT MUSIC!!!! IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT YOU DON'T ANY BETTER, BLAME YOUR PARENTS!!! DRAKE???? WTF!.................... WHO TALKS ABOUT DRAKE ON AN SWV VIDEO??????........ DRAKE WAS STILL IN MIDDLE SCHOOL GETTING BULLIED FOR HIS LUNCH MONEY WHEN THIS CAME OUT!!!

  • Drake sampled the best part. Everything else is shit.

  • No one sung lead in this group except Coko

  • Drake sampled from this!!! ahhh my favorite track on "Take Care" Shot For Me

  • 2:31 The part drake sampled on Shot for Me

  • @gothprincess31 it's the song playing in the background of the chorus ...the sample they use starts at 2:40, which is slowed down in drake's song, but you'll def. catch it.!

  • Anything yuh want me to I'll do it - Drake shot for me

  • This is not even their beat, they got it from someone else back in the 80's.

  • Drake is the buzz right now so haters please respect that it compliments this group by sampling their music.

  • @Aladdin6179 shut the fuck up and have a seat.

  • My all time fav song from the '90s! This song is 17 yrs old and it still gets me hype! Good music like this will never die. I am going to live in my '80s/'90s RnB bubble forever because today and tomorrows RnB will be pure garbage compared to this. :)

  • RCA Records booked my company "Style Architect" for makeup and hair for this video and most appearances made by SWV. They still are my favorite group. Read about them and others in the book "She Can Go Where Pretty Girls Go" by Constance Gibson.

  • Shot For Me!!

  • The best 

  • This video brings back so many great memories. Makeup and hair (Quietfire & Keith Hayes) for SWV was booked through my company "Style Architect". RCA Records booked Style Architect for almost every appearance SWV did. This is one my favorite SWV songs. Fond memories of the girls and other top stars of the 90s are shared in the book "She Can Go Where Pretty Girls Go" by Constance Gibson. Thanks to SWV for the great music and memories.

  • Old School R&B :D

  • I Miss R&B Like This!!!

  • if SWV and KUT KLOSE woulda/would team up together in a song, yo they would do mega damage and shut everybody down. ESPECIALLY with the lead voices of Coko and Athena Cage and they groups off the wall harmonizin. They'd make ppl not wanna sing no more..they need to make that happen like now :)

  • SWV is so inspiring! If we come close, it will be a blessing! Please show our group Havok Jones some love by searching havokjonessing. We have 3 videos so far. Have a great weekend!!

  • Best Afro-American Lady group ever. Hell Best female group ever.

  • Listening to oldschool girl groups makes me realize how crappy Destiny's Child music is! 

  • thumbs up if your a 90s baby like me and love music like this

  • Still a top tune. Ageless!

  • Forty two dislikes, must be something wrong with ya ears!

  • The good ol days...

  • I love how the men are the half naked ones! You'd never see that dynamic in 2011. I'm all about the reverse objectification. lol

  • omg was that Tyson Beckford..the guy sitting down with the towel around his waist that coco is all hugged up with??

  • remind me to never piss off CoCo with them long ass butcher nails.

  • classic black movie "above the rim " and classic black girl group swv damn the 90s was the last decade for real blackness.

  • @gla292 WHAaaaT!! YES

  • @JudeSantana real talk we need 2 get real hood rb music back up. in the 90s from wat i could remember n im 27 yrs old is dat rb was much bigger then rap now rap is much bigger then rb

  • @gla292 Don't you mean genuine R&B thats connected to the soul finished about 1996?...

    Black culture in music has and keeps being diluted by these white cunts... Middle class ass holes from white society who love to de-franchise black people

  • i remember my sister and her homegirls performed dis song for a school talent show. i think my sister was supposed to be leelee.

  • love SWV n look at Tupac!!!

  • Good Times yall...Tupac happy as a mug

  • my girls are making there comeback 

  • Tupac :)

  • Wow...my childhood! And that Above the Rim soundtrack had quite a few classix. Never watched the film though :-p

  • SWV R Legends (Like)

  • hmmm good ole 90s.... :D

  • During my club days, this song would pack the floor instantly. SWV was the shit! They were a hot group who did the damn thing with taste & class. Nothing compares to the music of the 80's & 90's. Nothing!! I'm glad for the experience & the pleasure to continue to enjoy this music today.

  • 2:37 to 2:47 is my favrit part of the song :)

  • How does Coko snap her fingers with those nails?

  • I took it for granted going up in the 90's. now that im almost 30 i wish i could go back to these days when the only thing i had to worry about was having good grades. Monica was my favorite artist and of course still is but I miss arguing with people about who was better monica or brandy or aaliyah(rip)

  • (like) if you're watching this in 2011

  • @CocoLynnable Tuesday, August 30, 2011 @ 4:37 pm to be exact haha.

  • This song is so good, it makes me furious how bad today's mainstream has become.

    What happened to the singers that put their soul into the music? Not just talented but could feel it and make you feel the same way.

  • 42 people dont know what feel good music sounds like......

  • Make Me Soo Mad Tht This Shit Aint Still Out

  • They Know Their Hair Look Good...I cant even began to think where I can find some good weave like theirs...lol

  • aoow look at dem nails

  • HEY LET'S COMMENT ABOUT JUSTIN BIEBER ON EVERY SINGLE YOUTUBE VIDEO

  • I will never get sick of this song. Same with any SWV, En Vogue, TLC, Dru Hill and Jodeci song. Anytime I hear them, it takes me back. I can enjoy a few songs of today but there is just something about the new jack swing era and mid 90s R&B that can't be touched.

  • OH YEAH I HAD THE BOB ON LOCK TO 80'S BABY ALL DAY!

  • SWV had bobs on lock!!!... WAY better than what we got now!!!

  • *favorites this video*

  • What I dont understand is, the people that dont like old school music, why go to videoes like these, why search for them for that matter? Sometimes I think ppl want to cause trouble on purpose. But to fight is human nature sadly. If youre gonna fight, fight for a good cause, cure cancer, feed hungry people, be grateful for what you do have!

  • @visionary93 Im young and i already lovee the old school music!
