"Shake Your Thang" is a song by American R&B and hip hop group Salt-N-Pepa, released by Next Plateau Entertainment and London Records as the first single from their second studio album, A Salt with a Deadly Pepa (1988).

In an interview, Salt explained she considers herself a feminist "in a way", emphasizing the need for women to avoid complete emotional and financial dependence on men.

[2] Ben Thompson from NME wrote, "As usual bits of this were purloined from various sources (Isley Bros etc) but who cares when it's such a belting tune.

That all-but-forgotten go-go swing, courtesy of EV, some crappy '70s disco trumpets, an argumentative piano and a fine plucky bass add up to a night of fun for all concerned.

The package comes complete with a stern reminder to would-be disco casanovas, "We just met, we can't do that yet."
