How do you know I’ve never been to Magic City, anyway? Maybe I have.


That is not Jim Carrey, just FYI, but the line still works great as a hook anyway. On streaming services, the most popular version of the song is now the “Whoot, There It Is (Ultimix),” which begins like this. It is the rawer, rougher, less wedding-friendly of the two songs. The 95 South song is, by a substantial margin, the less commercially successful of the two songs. Maybe he heard our record and said: ‘I can do one like that too.’” Finally, Jay Ski says, “We know of plenty cases where people have gone in to buy our record and wound up buying their record instead.” We recorded it last November.” He also casts some doubt on Tag Team’s timeline, saying, “In February, I took the single to Cecil Glenn (of Tag Team), who was the DJ at a club in Atlanta. I heard people saying, ‘Whoot, there it is,’ and I thought it was a good idea for a single. Times as the leader of 95 South, explains the genesis of “Whoot, There It Is” this way: “I got the idea for the single from the clubs in Atlanta. “Whoomp! (There It Is),” according to Tag Team, is recorded in October 1992 (that’s earlier), and is released in May 1993 (that’s later).Īs you might imagine, the existence of two hit songs with very similar titles and hooks is quite irksome to 95 South. “Whoot, There It is,” according to 95 South, is recorded in November 1992, and is released in February 1993. Times interviewed both groups, so let’s adopt their timeline. “Whoot” in August 1993, while both songs were still hot, and the L.A. The timelines vary, depending on what you read, but the L.A. The release of this song precedes the release of Tag Team’s “Whoomp! (There It Is)” by a few months, if only by a few months. “Whoot” comma “There It is.” No parentheses. A comprehensive survey of Miami Bass in just three songs. Bass-heavy, electro-leaning, fundamentally uncouth rap music from Miami and surrounding environs, with a foundation often provided by the Roland 808 drum machine. Given how long it took us to get to the actual song this week, I will confine my remarks on Miami bass to three songs. Luke Records recording artists H-Town, who hailed from Houston, naturally, but they were signed to a label deal and thusly catapulted to fame by none other than your friend Luke Campbell out in Miami. 5, Onyx, “Slam.” Oh, and “Knockin’ Da Boots” by H-Town at no. My first garage band right outta high school-we ended our first show ever by doing a cover of the Down by Law punk-rock cover of “500 Miles,” we were playing a Battle of the Bands in Brunswick, Ohio, and did not win. “I’m Gonna Be” parenthesis “500 Miles” close parenthesis. 4 “I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles),” by the Proclaimers. 3 “Weak” by SWV, Sisters With Voices, R&B classic, fantastic song. 1, “(I Can’t Help) Falling in Love With You.” No. This is a killer top five on the Hot 100, actually. I got the title wrong: UB40’s “(I Can’t Help) Falling in Love With You.” Sorry. 2 being my favorite chart position, as it compels me to inform you that “Whoomp! (There It Is)” was beaten out for the top spot by, you guessed it, UB40’s “Can’t Help Falling in Love.” Tough break. “Whoomp! (There It Is)” came out in April or May of 1993-the month matters, in this story, generally, as we will discover-and by that July it had peaked at no.
