Dave Hollister is one of the most underrated singers in rnb history. Black Street was that group.

Will Vlad let Teddy tell his stories. Cutting him off like he knows them better. 😂😂

No Digitty was one of many 90s songs that got grandma dancing on the dance floor!

Teddy is one of the biggest producers of any generation but literally underrated shockingly

Teddy Riley and Dr. Dre, two of the most iconic musical geniuses

That 1st BLACKstreet album was sick

No Diggity is their biggest hit but ‘Before I Let Go’ will always be my favorite!

Vlad is so adamant on letting people know that he know things. Stop cutting him off and let him tell the story. Okay...you know things (So you think). Congratulations!!!

Riley’s output in the late 80s and 90s was phenomenal. Also, Dre’s verse was a rap and Riley was singing, so there’s no comparison.

This is a very good interview. I'm a TR fan so I'm really engulfed in all this. He needs to make a movie about all this. ASAP

Shout to the late and great Bill Withers for being the inspiration for No Diggity with his song Grandma's Hands

"Before I let you go..." how can I ever forget that song! I still remember the day I first heard it. My landlady's daughter brought it back in a song collection from uni and played it for me. I fell in Love with Blackstreet and bought the whole album. Still blasting Blackstreet to date since the 90s. And then "No diggity"! This is so emotional right now!

Pharrell Williams wrote Rump Shaker. The soundtrack to my teenage/college life💐💐💐💐

OG teddy always have the best facial hair lineup ever!

Damn this an incredible interview with TEDDY RILEY!!! Recently found out he produced GRAND PUBA’s first group MASTERS OF CEREMONIES!!! Dude is a musical genius.

Teddy is an underrated musician, he's been doing it the nicest for a very longtime as a Producer & Artist

Good hearing the story about how No Diggity came to be what it was... The song was 🔥🔥🔥💯 Dre and Queen Pen also did their thing!

Teddy is such a humble personality ❤

We need a Teddy Riley Docu Series

Being a huge fan of Blackstreet and No Diggity this whole interview sends chills! Teddy is such an amazing talent 🙌🏾

Legendary indeed. Must say following this interview had to revisit that song we grew up listening, No Diggidy, and yeah Mr Riley is the one who led it... Sold 1.6million copies in '96, won a Grammy '98🤎... Legendary🔥

3:43 Billy Wither's(R.I.P.) - "Grandma's Hands" (1971) is song the sample for "No Diggity" (1996)

I always wanted to know how Nickelodeon came about having Teddy producing “Take me there” for the rugrats movie.

Man!!!!!...I love hearing Teddy talk about how the process of him calibrating with other producers and Artist's...this is Golden ...man I always wanted to work with Teddy, Baby face and Dr Dre ...my dream ....but dreams don't always come true...but I'll just enjoy listening to these interviews with him ..

“Wasn’t that sample going to be used for Tupac?” “That’s the part I’m gonna tell you” in other words… Vlad SHUTUP and let the bredda talk. Ffs

LOVE that song. I'm an 'old head,' college-educated suburbanite.... great, great tune. I'm going to listen to it now... for about the millionth time. No diggity, no doubt!

Teddy also produced The Show, one the most iconic HipHop songs of all time. DCOG

I can't help but feel this is the dave Chappelle lil jon skit. The way teddy keeps saying huh, yes

I always bumped Black Street back in High School

Man when you think about the number of songs he’s been apart of. And all the huge hits spanning decades 80’s 90’s 2000’s shits crazy!!! This dude is the GOAT who can touch him and people don’t really talk about him!!!

To finish the story, Suge Knight ended up hearing the song before it came out & had Pac jump on a remix of it dissing Dr Dre(called "Toss It Up"). To add insult to injury, he had Aaron Hall on it(who was beefing w/ Teddy Riley) w/ Kci & Jojo which was a shot at Puff Daddy who had signed Jodeci(before they went on to be heavily west coast affiliated). Keep in mind, Puff Daddy used to be an intern for Teddy Riley & would set up his keyboards. If Im not mistaken, the original remix had to have the sample removed because they didnt clear it & then later the song got pulled from the radio due to Jimmy Iovine strong arming the radio stations lol. The song ended up being the last music video Pac shot before he died. They shot a video on the beach w/ a bunch of white girls & didnt like how it came out, then months later reshot it(w/ a bunch of light skin girls in post production lol) & finished the day before Pac died. Aaron Hall is in the original video but in the 2nd video couldnt be in it due to legal issues so *R Kelly plays the role of him when his vocal part comes up(& keep in mind, R Kelly bit the Fk out of Aaron Hall's vocal style when he first came out & of course copied Teddy Riley's new jack swing style production just like errbody else) . *correction: R Kelly wasnt in the video, it was a look alike confirmed by Danny Boy in an interview on youtube in a video about him doing gay things w/ R&B singers if you wanna search for it. He clarifies this at the end of the video & I had to search through dozens of videos to find the EVIDENCE which means I was misinformed(likely by a nickel in a Toss it Up comment section from the past). Either way, all these nickels in the comment section here blindly disagreeing aint got the answers neither & like Terrence Howard said in Get Rich or Die Trying "even if Im wrong Im right cuz i couldve been right". I had to prove myself wrong by finding evidence. Now Ive corrected my incorrection. Either way, I dont randomly make ish up & Im a thorough bred nickel myself.

It's crazy that this song is being played even now daily with this commercial that is shown on TV. A true classic song that stands the test of time.

Every sound in Rump Shaker is a sample. Sax, drums etc

It 's crazy, when Dr Dre is on someone else song, even without producing, it's become his biggest hit '

“Don’t leave me boy”just doesn’t have the same ring to it 😂😂😂. What U telling us Teddy?

Just so it's clear Vladimir.... we don't watch because you're talented. We watch because you have (access) to legends.

Uncleared sample in Rumpshakers was Lafayette Afro Rock Band an American funk rock band formed in Roosevelt, Long Island, New York in 1970. Shortly after their formation, they relocated to France.

I was wondering if he was going to talk about Wrexx n Efexx or the multiple Backstreet members.

I blew out a pair of subs when this song came out . The bass hit hard !

Teddy you are real one. You gave Will his props that was my guy. i was always at your studio during these times with him in VA beach .

In my Tony Yayo voice "Vlad shut the f up let Teddy explain the story "

This song was bad on the dancefloors back in the day!💯

Love this interview, No Diggity is one of the most creative uses of a sample ever, if you know the original song by Bill Whithers, they totally flip it and merge blues, RnB and Hip Hop, complete genius use of a sample

....one of the BIGGEST PINNACLES of BLACK CULTURE was the TV show NEW YORK UNDERCOVER creating a crime montage to NO DIGGITY....it was just GENIUS....i remember just smiling to myself....it was just so REAL...and ELEGANT and MODERN...i will NEVER FORGET IT....

Damn this gave me chills no diggity is a big part of my childhood I remember buying the cd I was like 8 years old

Loving these! Teddy is carrying on mjs spirit

One of my favorite songs from back in the day. Teddy is one helluva story teller!

Blackstreet was one of the best groups ever. Both the first and second lineups were brilliant. TR is a legend

Bill Bellamy tied in the Mike Tyson thing into the Booty Call joke... when he was on Def Comedy Jam he talked about the Mike Tyson shit then asks "Is this or is this not a booty call?"

Teddy Riley & Jermaine Dupri should do an album together.

It's also the same beat of "toss it up" by tupac

Don’t leave me was my favorite. That track and their performance was 💪💪💪

Teddy Riley is like the dr.dre of r&b he change r&b

This man is lowkey a living Legend! great interview vlad.

Trinidad loves you, Teddy Riley |🇹🇹

I got to see this interview in it's entirety & outside of how amazing Mr. Riley was/is as a subject, one of the things that made it even more interesting was the interviewer. No disrespect to him, however, some of his facts were incorrect & he did not know some of the people, places or things that Teddy Riley was speaking about; then what Mr. Riley did was correct him on the facts & gave him back stories on the people, places & things in order for him to understand the vibe of that time along with the overall feeling of what New York City/Harlem was like. Because Teddy Riley was painting these pictures for him, you could hear him gain the understanding/appreciation of how important Mr. Riley was in shaping Black music, that is still influenced today with his contributions

Dre loved it cause it sounds like something he would have produced so it was a no Brainer for Dre

I gotta get this full interview, Teddy dropping too many gems and incredible stories on here 🔥🔥 Came a long way from that running Teddy Riley wifi joke from verzuz 😭🥴

I'm a 90's R and B guy so I had to know that was Teddy on first verse. But through the years I guess I forgot. I don't know why I put in my head it was Dave Hollister lol. But Teddy did a great job on the first verse. It sets the tone. And to be honest I thought it was cool but being a teenager back then, that two step beat didn't really sell it for me. No Diggity didn't sound like anything out. I liked that "Don't Leave Me Sound". But that tells you great Teddy is. It grew on me after a while and is their biggest hit now.

Teddy's a great story teller! 👏🏿

Production wide this is one of Teddys simplest beats !

Love the behind the scenes stories, espcially the ones without gangsta bullshit!

Damn vlad can you talk more about weackz and effects and how Pharrell wrote his verse that's a major track vlad

Outstanding interview!

This just makes so happy! What a natural raconteur?! Great.

Teddy is the man. One of the best to do it.

Middle aged dude here, No Diggity was a smash, and a good song.

ISDN ? Damn, haven't heard that acronym in decades.

man he didnt expain toss it up... been waiting for this since 96 smh maybe tomorrow

Teddy very intelligent man I wish all his brother born smart like him

No Diggity is so big that it was the song that was just playing in the Instacart ad that played before I watched this clip . Big

Great interview

Damn to many accomplishments big ones ,dudes gifted

DAYYUUMMMM... magic happening right there...

I like the way you work ittttttttttttt! Lol That was a Jam!

Great story. Vlad really has a problem with letting his guests talk. He almost didn't let Teddy get the full story out.

One of my favorite 100 songs ever but Dre opened it up

What a sick story 🔥🔥

I like how teddy pauses Dj Vlad when he keeps trying to add incorrect information ℹ️

Fascinating!

I’m trying to figure out how Jimmy Iovine was on his phone and there were no smartphones in 1996

He seem so humble

I pray if I ever make it to heaven I want this beat playing in the background....

Vlad: So booty call was about Mike Tyson? Lmao

I found it interesting that 2pac took the no diggity beat for Toss it up to diss Dre, then blackstreet took pacs I ain’t mad at cha beat for Don’t leave

Vlad stay getting his facts wrong Smdh! Then when they tell him no he’s wrong, he tries to tell them their real life story he read online.. Smmfh.

Dr. Dre and TR.. The greatest producers of all time

Boss song, and the Urban Takeover remix took it to the next level

Just so folks know Teddy did the SHOW!! Dougie Fresh!

Can believe he is the guy on the first verse. He keep looking familiar all along

Vlad got them Aaron hall flashbacks cued 😂

The name of the group they sampled, is called Lafeyette afro rock band.

Nigga teddy im glad you took the the first verse song is at hit 🔥🙌🏾

Jimmy must be a time traveller from 95 if he got on his phone and started texting lol.

FINALLY we get into Blackstreet. It only took 22 clips!

“I like the way you work ittttt. No digggitty.” That shit slap lol never knew who it was by tho

Great story teller

I’m loving his lion hoodie. Wonder where he got it from? I’m a Leo and would love to rock one of those.♌️

Damn this whole time i thought Dre did the beat for Pac's next album and Teddy bought it off him when Dre left Deathrow.

Teddy Riley created a whole new sound
