Naughty By Nature – Uptown anthem
by Winta
This week we’ll feature Naughty by Nature who coincidentally are featured on my soon-to-be-posted 90s mix!  One of my favorite songs from them is Uptown Anthem (from the Juice soundtrack) which I heard a lot on the radio back in the day, but really stuck in my brain due to repeated listenings of Funkmaster Flex’s 60 Minutes of Funk Vol II.
Via wikipedia:
Naughty by Nature is a Grammy Award-winning American hip hop group that at the time of its formation in 1989 consisted of Treach, Vin Rock, and the DJ Kay Gee. The group formed in East Orange, New Jersey (colloquially referred to as “Illtown” in the 1980s). The group first appeared on the music scene in 1989 releasing an album called Independent Leaders under their then name the New Style. The album generated the minor hit “Scuffin’ Those Knees”. After the release of their first album, the group was mentored by fellow New Jersey native Queen Latifah, and subsequently changed its name.

They also perform WWE Executive Vice President of Global Media Shane McMahon’s entrance song “Here Comes the Money”.
