And, per James, she and Sandra 'Pepa' Denton had more of a predilection for playing cards than. as did James then-boyfriend and future Salt-N-Pepa producer, Hurby 'Love Bug' Azor. And even if its sound and style are very much of their time, 2 Hype still holds up surprisingly well, thanks to Kid ’N Play ’s winning personalities. Yesterday, Lifetime premiered a Salt-N-Pepa biopic that was claimed to be an. And that behind-the-scenes role is only fitting. Salt-N-Pepas Cheryl 'Salt' James is worth a fortune, one earned over three decades from the debut of Salt, Pepa, and Spinderella her net worth is 14 million. Hurby ‘Luv Bug’ Azor ’s production keeps things danceable and engaging throughout the sound is fairly spare, with funky and occasionally club-friendly beats, catchy instrumental hooks behind the choruses, and basic DJ scratching.
If all of this seems safe and lightweight, it’s also a tremendous amount of good, clean fun. There isn’t much on the duo’s minds other than friendship, dancing, and dating, and everything stays pretty innocent – Kid even confesses to being shy around girls on ‘ Undercover ’. with Steve Huey raving: “Accusations of being soft notwithstanding, those qualities are exactly what give their debut album, 2 Hype, its refreshing charm. After Push It became a hit in 1987 and was re-released to even wider success in early 1988, Hurby Azors accomplishments with Salt-N-Pepa put him in a. The cover shot is about as non-threatening as you can get. Sebastian Dungan serves as the Lifetime executive in charge of production.I recently bought the first album by Kid ’N Play, 2 Hype ( 1988) – mostly because of the hair, I admit, since I really didn’t know anything else about them – and found it to be a really enjoyable record.
