#Interestingly “Here Comes The Hotstepper” by Ini Kamoze was featured in Robert Altman’s 1994 fashion satire Prêt-à-Porter (‘Ready to Wear’).
Altman’s film didn’t become a smash, but the marketing blitz kept Ini Kamoze in the spotlight throughout that winter. #IniKamoze #RobertAltman #OneHitWondered

#QuickSidenote Cannibal and the Headhunters version of “Land of 1000 Dances” was a cover of Chris Kenner’s 1962 original… which peaked at #77 on the #Billboard Hot 100. So it was Kenner who was credited as a writer on “Here Comes The Hotstepper.” #IniKamoze #ChrisKenner #OneHitWondered

#Interestingly That infectious hook, the ‘na-na-na-na’ that propels Ini Kamoze’s “Here Comes The Hotstepper,” was borrowed from “Land of 1000 Dances” by Cannibal and the Headhunters. #IniKamoze #CannibalandtheHeadhunters #OneHitWondered

#Interestingly The heartbeat of “Here Comes The Hotstepper” by Ini Kamoze rides on a drums & bass loop from Taana Gardner’s “Heartbeat.” Because of the sample being used, writer/producer Kenton Nix is credited as a writer on the single. #IniKamoze #KentonNix #OneHitWondered

#Interestingly Ini Kamoze (mountain of the true God) wasn’t new to the game… “World Affairs,” his debut single (on his own Mogho Naba label in 1981), was recorded as a tribute to the (then) recently deceased Bob Marley. #IniKamoze #BobMarley #OneHitWondered
