Wasn't he just "Hammer" at this point? razz

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

This video is so embarrassing for Hammer it was a poor attempt to make this song sound like 'Rumpshaker'

I wonder if he had a bikini wax before he put on that speedo.lol

I hear ya. It should have been a thin plain white speedo without the distracting stripes and the speedo should have been wet. lol

That's the only turnoff about the video. No, he didn't wax, which would have been equally as horrible, but he did shave in the creases of his legs. I know because I have the video on a DVD-R and I have zoomed in as close as possible and can see razor bumps. lol

Pumps was produced by Teddy Riley, who also produced Rumpshaker.

He dropped the "MC" part of his stage name for the 2 Legit 2 Quit album. But the single, Pumps And A Bump, was on The Funky Headhunter album.

"Pumps" was his attempt at G-Funk, which is not what "Rumpshaker" is. I think the other version of the video confirms this moreso. It was just a greater attempt by Hammer to try to gain back some street credibility.

lol It failed.

I'm sick and tired of the Prince fans being sick and tired of the Prince fans that are sick and tired!

Actually Rump Shaker was a Pharrell Williams track. Teddy took the credit.

Pumps And A Bump is a sick track.

That was a hot track but I think the original video destroyed its potential. He tried to get away from his earlier clean-cut image but this wasn't the way to go. evillol

That doesn't surprise me, though the credits officially do credit him, along with about a dozen other people (which I presume includes the songs "Rumpshaker" sampled from). I read somewhere he wrote a verse and according to the booklet, he got credit.
