I like "Girl Talk", but I can't with Kandi's songwriting sometimes. lol. She stayed writing about man problems. But that beat knocked though.
I didn't know they removed that Donna Summer interpolation from IGABB until I listened to the CD years later. Not hearing it felt so wrong. lol. The clean version isn't that bad, but it's not as in-your-face as the explicit. I was surprised that version ended with the interpolation.

Flashback to my mother’s slow motion jaw drop at the explicit version of IGABB blaring out of the living room speakers. Quite the opposite with my mom. She would drop me off at school blasting that and I would get so embarrassed. Yelling out I need “10 inch or bigger” like woman you are married! 🤮 It was her favorite off the album.

Some of these are a little off from what I preferred but I can't say I'm mad at these rankings so far. The only travesty is that Way Off should have been higher... I mean y'all really can't tell me Way Off is not better than Hat 2 Da Back and Kick Your Game. Wel you can technically but I refuse to hear it. LOL.

I ranked Girl Talk that high for 3 reasons: 1. The production was knocking 2. Left Eye's verse 3. Chilli and her ad-libs

The clean version isn't that bad, but it's not as in-your-face as the explicit. I was surprised that version ended with the interpolation. On what version was the interpolation present, and more so where did people hear it? The original pressing of the CD. It was later repressed without the interpolation. They also changed the background music on “Whispering Playa - Interlude,” which originally used “Cold Blooded” by Rick James. If you want a CD with the original samples, find one that has the lenticular cover, as those are all first pressings. Also, the vinyl version has the original versions intact. I feel nerdy for knowing all this, but I’ve gone through so many copies of this album over the years.

I wish I would've participated in this! Glad to see "Silly Ho" and "Diggin' On You" in the top 10 though. Not sure I would made much of a difference, maybe would've pulled up I'm Good At Being Bad, Way Back, and Come Get Some by a rank or two each.

That out to tho: A bitch like me niggga what, a bitch like me niggga huh, a bitch like , a bitch like MUAHHaha! They omitted that from the clean version and instead closed it out with the Donna Summer hook. Kick Your Game always felt like a single. I’m looking forward to Silly Ho’s placement in the Top 10.

The interpolation is still present on the clean version of the album uploaded to streaming services as well.

"Silly Ho" or "Unpretty" needs to go next.
Not that I don't like them, but they need to give way to the real classics.

My entire top 6 made it so I'm quite happy. And I at least like all remaining songs!

I’ll never forget hearing the premiere of this on 92.3 The Beat and the DJ playing it back to back because the phone lines were blowing up. Back when new music being released truly felt like an EVENT. Good times.

Speaking of which, I highly recommend this highly addictive mashup by InitialTalk of "Starships" and "Silly Ho".
