Salt-n-Pepa & En Vogue - Whatta Man

About

"Whatta Man" is a collaborative music video by Salt-N-Pepa and En Vogue, released in 1994. The song itself is a reinterpretation of the 1968 soul classic "What a Man" by Linda Lyndell. The video features dynamic performances from both groups, with Salt-N-Pepa delivering energetic rap verses while En Vogue provides the catchy refrain. Directed by Matthew Rolston, the video showcases the chemistry between the two groups as they dance and sing together with backup dancers. The video includes cameos from notable figures like Tupac Shakur and Treach from Naughty by Nature. However, Tupac's appearance was largely edited out due to his controversial reputation at the time. Despite this, the video remains iconic, capturing the essence of 90s hip-hop and R&B. "Whatta Man" was a commercial success, peaking at number three on the Billboard Hot 100 and earning several award nominations. The song's enduring popularity has made it a staple of 90s music culture.
