Listen to Yakamoto’s Kotzuga’s ‘She Said’ from Baby, Season 3, Episode 6, “Oltre l’acquario”
Only a few years later, the song was being placed on Worst of…lists and talked about one of the worst and cheesiest songs ever released, with a particularly bad performance by Smith. Interestingly, however, and to show just how much music tastes often change, during the first couple of years after the song was released, it was named on several Best of… lists by a number of influential critics and was even given a Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance. It also charted in 18 other countries, making it to #1 on the Canada Dance chart and in the Top 10 in 12 other countries, including the U.K. Released in January, 1998, ‘ Gettin’ Jiggy Wit It‘ catapulted to the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart and then sat there for three weeks.
Will Smith’s ‘ Gettin’ Jiggy Wit It‘ was the second single released from his debut studio album Big Willie Style. The track was played during the scene at the pool party.
