Remy Ma featuring Swizz Beatz

The first lady of Terror Squad knows that leaning back is no substitute for dancing. But she's also undemanding: Her chorus command to "Put your right hand up, put your left hand up" is easier than the hokey pokey. Swizz's production imagines Scott Storch in a suit; it's what happens...

The first lady of Terror Squad knows that leaning back is no substitute for dancing. But she's also undemanding: Her chorus command to "Put your right hand up, put your left hand up" is easier than the hokey pokey.

She really is that cool.
