Trivia: What chart-topping single was released by Salt-N-Pepa in 1987?
Whatta Man
Shoop
Push It
Let’s Talk About Sex
The correct answer is Push It
So why is this answer correct? : Oh baby, baby — it’s hard to imagine that one of Salt-N-Pepa’s most famous songs almost didn’t happen. The hip-hop group — which consists of Cheryl James and Sandra Denton — released their debut album, “Hot, Cool and Vicious,” in December 1986 to lukewarm reception. Months later, in the fall of 1987, the women were preparing “Tramp,” their next single off the album, when a producer brought them the song “Push It.” They recorded it in the producer’s bathroom and added the song as the B-side of the single. A remix was eventually created, and the song became an unexpected hit, reaching the Top 10 charts in 10 countries.
