This transition was not as difficult as it might have seemed at the time. The influence of the group’s favorite bass music artists of the era became the guide to their music success. Legendary artists like MC Shy D (“Gotta Be Tough”), 2 Live Crew (“Throw That D”), Afrika Bambaataa & The Mighty Soul Sonic Force (“Planet Rock”), The Egyptian Lover (“Egypt, Egypt”) were the inspiration behind this odyssey and allowed DC and Steve to set the blueprint for a successful transition into a new musical genre. This pursuit laid the foundation for what would become Tag Team’s legacy, making Whoomp There it is a timeless hit for all future generations to enjoy.
ATLANTA STRIP CLUBS
For the next two months, DC wore that cassette tape out, playing it at the club and for everyone he knew. The reaction was unanimous: they had a hit. But their work was not done. It was time to move on to the next record. They had their process down: make records, take them to the club, push play, and see if the dancers liked them. If they didn’t, scrap the record and move on to the next. This meant Whoomp faded for a while as they continued to test out new tracks. However, the demand for the song stayed strong. When he got asked by one of the dancers, Play Whoomp There It Is some more, DC happily granted the request. But he didn’t realize that the reaction would be even more overwhelming the second time months later, in late January.

BILLBOARD TOP 100 RAP
When Whoomp came on, it was like the track was brand new again. Everyone went wild. And what DC didn’t know at the time was that a Columbia Records rep named Alan Cole was in the club when the song was unveiled for a second time. Alan was so excited about the song that he requested a copy to send to New York. However, it was difficult for Miami Bass artists to be taken seriously by major record labels in those days, and as time went by and there was no response from New York, Tag Team got frustrated enough to finally put the record out themselves.
