Product Description
"Back That Azz Up" was released in 1999 by Juvenile, with guest appearances by fellow rappers Mannie Fresh and Lil Wayne. The song was an immediate success -- it reached the top 20 on the Billboard charts and became Juvenile's biggest hit to date -- and it was pretty much ubiquitous both that year and the next. It's still an immensely popular song to this day, and it's even been named on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Songs Of All Time...so you really can't go wrong adding this one to your gig books! This Cellobat arrangement for your string quartet features musically notated rap verses and maintains the catchy synth hooks & danceable beat of the original for a chart you and your audience are sure to love! Originally written for a wedding ceremony, this will also be perfect for receptions, cocktail hour, parties, or any other occasion you need some vintage hip-hop. Rated advanced-intermediate for some tricky rhythms throughout; this will be playable for more advanced students and sightreadable for professionals.
