"North Carolinaaa cmon` and raise up, take ur shirt off, twist it round ur hand, spin it like a helicopter..."
Was this not the jam back then? I remember everyone in high school singing along to this one at the dances and girls getting up on eachother.
I recall this song lingering in the bottom part of the CHR/Pop top 40.
His follow up didn't fare too well at urban either.

I'll have to join the hatas on this one. Seriously annoying voice on the guy.

Petey deleted hatas.  "Raise Up" was very good, made #1 on my personal chart foe one week. Very good song. |

There ain't nothin' like blasting this song as high as my ears can stand in the car and trying to sing the "who am I" line louder than Petey  |

I love it 'cause the song has such a killer Timbaland beat and then you start shouting along with the chorus and then all the music drops out and you go: "Who am Iiii? Petey Pab, muthaf*ckaaaa..." and then I never tried to learn much after that. Sadly, he's become a one-hit wonder. "I" was good, but no one remembers him for it and I never heard the 3rd single. But c'mon, that "Blow Ya Whistle" song was just garbage. Did his second album even come out?? |

And I do too.
I bet all these "Who Am I?" topics probably inspired the start of this topic...heh.

Sadly, he's become a one-hit wonder. Hah! Not anymore! "Raise Up" should seriously be North Carolina's official state song. Prudes be damned. |

Oh, boy - I remember what happened when this song came on at my high school's Homecoming Dance in October 2001. Some guys started doing what the song says to do (and it actually wasn't a bad idea...it was VERY hot inside). I toyed with the idea of doing the same for about five seconds... ...and joined in.  Almost immediately after, one other guy picked me up on his shoulders. So I was all the way up there swinging my shirt around. Such a crazy stunt, and I enjoyed doing it. Everyone I knew at school was talking about it for the next week afterward. That said, both this and "Freek-A-Leek" are decent. |

I haven't heard this in a minute. This didn't sound like a Timbaland production at the time. I like(d) it and his follow ups "I" and "I Told Y'all". I do remember the All-Cities version on the radio.

I haven't heard this in YEARS. So bad, but I would be lying if I said that I didn't like it at the time.
