The radio edit of the song features rapper Ludacris. The song is a reference to oral sex as the rappers tell in the song's chorus about receiving oral sex from women. The popularity of the song earned Shawnna her first platinum certification as a solo artist by the RIAA on December 14, 2006. The music video included Chicago model Candy Brooks as the "oohs and aahs girl".[1]

Remixes

The official remix that can be found on the Block Music album features Too Short, Pharrell, Ludacris and Lil Wayne. Another remix featuring Rick Ross, Pimp C and the same Lil Wayne verse can be found on the official Disturbing Tha Peace mixtape, The DTP Takeover: Its An Epidemic.[2] An extended remix was released on Shawnna's mixtape "Block Party - The Mixtape" featuring all the artists from the previous remixes, along with Dre (from Cool & Dre), Shawn J (from Field Mob), Pitbull, Fat Joe, Twista, Busta Rhymes and Jim Jones.[3] Busta Rhyme's verse from this remix is taken from the mixtape freestyle he did over the beat with his artist Labba.[4] Along with providing a verse for the official remix, Lil Wayne also recorded new verses to the instrumental on his 2006 mixtape Dedication 2. This version featured Pharrell's verse from the official remix.

gollark: Come to think of it, it might just be comparing *pairs* via some hashing thing and not be a total ordering, but I doubt it.
gollark: I used highly advanced coding and algorithms™ to try a bunch of algorithms to see if any of them put the list in the right order.
gollark: Maybe there could be multiple hashing algorithms in use, oh bεes.
