In what year was the original performer of “Street Player”—the song sampled in “75, Brazil Street”—formed?
I Know You Want Me (Calle Ocho) "I Know You Want Me (Calle Ocho)" is a song by American artist Pitbull released as the second single from his fourth album, "Rebelution". The song samples "The Bomb! (These Sounds Fall Into My Mind)" by Bucketheads and "75, Brazil Street" by Nicola Fasano versus Pat Rich, which itself samples "Street Player" by Chicago. The core is from a song by Dominican rappers El Cata and Omega. The title is a reference to Calle Ocho, a street in Miami's Little Havana neighborhood. The song premiered on the Miami radio station WPOW. It has also been featured in "Dance Central", the Xbox 360 Kinect-based dancing game, "Dance Dance Revolution X2" for PlayStation 2, the PlayStation 3 PlayStation Move-based dancing game "SingStar Dance", and in the pilot of "Suburgatory". It received a nomination a Latin Rhythm Airplay Song of the Year at the 2010 Latin "Billboard" Music Awards.
Grand Union (dance group) The Grand Union was an improvisational dance group based in New York City from 1970 to 1976. It grew out of Yvonne Rainer dance company, and her piece "Continuous Project - Altered Daily". Rainer's sole authority as choreographer began to slip in early 1970 when the dancers, at her invitation, began to bring in their own materials for the piece. By late 1970, new members had joined the group and the materials were improvised to a much greater extent. The company, which was still often billed as "Yvonne Rainer and Dancers" in the beginning, chose "The Grand Union" as a name to avoid any obvious associations with dance in order to inoculate themselves against charges that what they were doing was not properly "dance". To avoid problems with the supermarket chain of the same name, the group used the legal name "Rio Grand Union".
