Description: One of the first albums to challenge hip-hop's machocratic sovereignty, Salt-N-Pepa's
Hot, Cool & Vicious takes as its musical model Run-D.M.C.'s potent distillation of streetwise repartee, hard-ass bluster and beatbox rhythms. Determined to say it loud and say it proud, r-r-r-rappers Cheryl "Salt" James and Sandy "Pepa" Denton wield their womanhood like an urban-jungle machete, busting unfaithful lovers in "Chick on the Side," threatening female competitors "just for spite" in "I'll Take Your Man," dishing distaff disses at Doug E. Fresh and Slick Rick in "The Showstopper," and condemning mindless male promiscuity in "Tramp." With its aerobic BPMs and synth-pop hook, the Top 20 hit "Push It" is the album's most obvious--and most effective--bid for dancefloor immortality. --

Reviews:
Genuine Hop Hop Album of a femae rap group
This is really ghetto style album. Their rymes are awsome. Thy really sound like they are having a good time. Push it, is the party song. I'll Take you man, is a battle song against jealous females. Tramp, proves a point about supposed gender double standards concering sex. Showstopper is their first single ever, and is probably the best song on the track. It was a song that their manager, Herbie Luvbug wrote as an answer to, The Show. By Doug E. Fresh and Slick Rick. It's a good album to listen. It's definitely a great debut from one of the first female rap goups. Salt-n-Pepa, will most likely, be the best female rap group in the history of Hip Hop!!!
The best female rap group past or present
This album features the ORIGINAL Spinderella, Dee Dee Roper came later on to take carry on the name, so it's definately a classic. My Mic Sounds Nice and I Desire are my favorite cuts on this album. If you don't have this one, YOUR WRONG ! ! ! These ladies paved the way for a lot of female artist of today. Imagine that.
VERY HOT DEBUT ALBUM!!!
This is a great cd from start to finish and I would truly recommend this cd to any old skool rap fan and would let them know that their money is not being wasted it is a good investment and I would truly recommend this cd because it is loaded with hits: tramp, I'll take your man , My Mic sounds nice, and push it all of these songs were trademark hits but I really enjoy the whole cd!!!!
