Salt-N-Pepa is an iconic hip-hop trio that broke ground not just for women in rap, but for the genre as a whole. Originating from Queens, New York, the group was formed in 1985 by Cheryl James (Salt), Sandra Denton (Pepa), and initially included Latoya Hanson, who was replaced by Deidra Roper (DJ Spinderella) in 1987. They quickly gained popularity with their bold lyrics, catchy beats, and fearless attitude toward discussing sex and love from a woman's perspective.
Their breakthrough came with the hot single "Push It" from their 1986 album "Hot, Cool & Vicious," which led them to become the first female rap act to go platinum. Over the years, Salt-N-Pepa have released a string of hits, including "Shoop," "Whatta Man," and "Let's Talk About Sex," tracks that have cemented their legacy in the industry. They are celebrated not only for their musical achievements but also for their influence on the empowerment of women in hip-hop. Even decades into their career, with albums like "Very Necessary" seeing landmark anniversary editions and their classics receiving modern remixes, Salt-N-Pepa remain relevant and beloved fixtures in the music world.
