referencing Work It / Abracadabra (12", 45 RPM, Unofficial Release) JF 03

very stripped back & formulaic house edits that don’t do much - the appeal is obviously the well known original tracks’ vocals. surprisingly high sound quality for a bootleg, tho.
quite easy to tell, but the labels are on the wrong sides. Work It should be on the A, and Abracadabra on the B

The Remix featuring 50 Cent is actually not listed on the sticker on the front of the US 12“.

This Timbaland track was No1 in 2002 !!! ... Since i was a hard working DJ at the time, this was sooo Essential !! ... All versions got used because it was so big, I could play the instrumental for 3 minutes before cutting over to the A side ... Funky jam indeed !! ... // Tommy

Unlike most of guest rappers such Nas, Eve, Magoo on prior Missy's releases, 50 Cent was really a bad choice for a guest on such a great party song. His rap is rather bland and slows down the song's tempo. An edgier guest such Slim Thug, Busta Rhymes, Nas, or even T.I. could have been a much better choice in my opinion.

Cheers for the false advertising. This is a shit remix, not the original.

Work It Ingredients - one part Blondie "Heart of Glass", a pinch of Run DMC "Peter Piper", a teaspoonful of a Landstrumm sonar type bleep coupled with nice Timbaland beats. Missy's mad metaphors are the icing on this cake. Mmmmmm!
