Green

DJ Pamela Green was once the mixer for the hip-hop sensation Salt-n-Pepa. The duo's manager, Hurby 'LuvBug' Azor hired the young teen in mid-1986. From there, Green was featured on Salt-n-Pepa's first LP, Hot, Cool, & Vicious which the DJ was known specifically for the beat on the hit single, Push It. In 1988, the duo jettisoned Green and hired DJ Spinderella. Seeing as Azor mistreated Salt-n-Pepa and took all their royalties by copyrighting their names and songs in his name, Green let herself be known as 'The Original', stating all her mixing skills and name was totally up to her..

Wikify

Add a discography heading with songs and the dates and the position they reached in the chart and also I believe they brought out a song called Lets Talk About AIDs.

Yes that's true they did but that was only for a campaign ad. I think if you look REAL HARD on the net, you can download it somewhere.

I've Never Heard of DJ Pamela Green

There have been 2 members of Salt 'N Pepa that both went by the same name of "Spinderella".

The orignal Spinderella was forced out of the group after the first album (Hot, Cool & Vicious) was recorded. She appears on the album cover & even gives her real name "Latoya Hanson" in an interview contained within the liner notes. She went on to become known as Da Original.

The group retained the rights to the name Spinderella & Latoya was replaced by Dee Dee Roper who became the new Spinderella.

Legend

They make super funky tunes like and people think they're too cool for it just cos they prefer rappers like Tupac, and 50 Cent. Well *** that type of peeps --Big-piggy 17:09, 13 January 2007 (UTC)SPOOKY CALIBER[reply]

Band name?

Their albums seem to have the group's name written with apostrophes (sometimes 'n, sometimes 'n'), but not dashes. I'm curious why the dashes have adopted for the article. TheHYPO (talk) 17:37, 22 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed on the band name, should be listed as Salt 'N Pepa, as that is the spelling used on most of their albums. How to rename article? --SteffenPoulsen 12:43, 26 July 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by SteffenPoulsen (talk • contribs)

A quick look at the album art on Amazon shows -N-, -n-, 'n, 'N'. The hyphenated version (and I think they are hyphens, not dashes) seems most prevalent. -Rrius (talk) 00:38, 20 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The article name is Salt-n-Pepa, but the article lead capitalises the "n". AllMusic seems to settle on Salt-N-Pepa as well. Is there any objection if a change the name of the article to reflect that? BlackCab (TALK) 07:04, 28 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Sales figures

The article contains various sales figures and gold disc mentions but fails to provide a single reference for any of it. I suspect it may be more fancruft rather than fact, but either way needs citing or removing.

Very Necessary: "The album is the best selling album by a female rap act"

The Score by the Fugees and The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill have sold more, although it could be argued that the first is not exclusively female and the second is not exclusively rap.

Merge Latoya Hanson here

Latoya Hanson doesn't meet WP:MUSICBIO or WP:GNG independently, but would make valid merge / redirect. Boleyn (talk) 13:58, 27 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree. She is independently notable. She appears in a number of sources. CrazyAces489 (talk) 06:05, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Still struggling with GNG after all this time. Trivial mentions in sources are not what GNG require. All the mentions are in the context of being spinderella briefly, so merge makes sense.-86.2.216.5 (talk) 06:19, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
