791-Terror Squad-Lean Back.

2004-Number 24 single.

Best Bit-At 1.31.The dance they are doing is called ‘The Rockaway,’ I would imagine it is one of the easier dance routines to choreograph.

‘Lean Back’ is one of the most successful Hip-Hop songs of all time,it spent three weeks at Number 1 on Billboard in August, and September 2004, on the best selling songs on Billboard since 1958, it is the 337th highest seller.The Terror Squad were formed in 1998, in The Bronx, New York, United States, by Joseph Cartagena who goes by the name of Fat Joe.He had earlier started a record label also called ‘Terror Squad’, and signed Rap artists to release solo material on the label, as well as working under the Terror Squad band banner.One of the original members of the Terror Squad was the critically acclaimed rapper Big Punisher who died of a heart attack in 2000, this forced Fat Joe in to recruiting new members Remy Ma, and Tony Sunshine, who both appear on this song.

Fat Joe was born on August 19th, 1970, in The Bronx, New York, like Big Punisher (1971-2000) he has suffered with weight problems all his life, and by 1996 weighed over 21 stone. In 2011 Fat Joe unveiled his latest weight loss efforts in the video for his song ‘Drop a Body,’ after shedding 88lb of his previous weight of 350lb.

One of the songs co-writers is Remy Ma who performs the second verse, she is one of only six female rappers to have performed on a Billboard Number 1 single.

‘Said my n….. don’t dance, we just pull up our pants, and do the Rockaway,now lean back, lean back, lean back.’
