"Take Me There (Want U Back Mix)” is a song by American R&B quartet Blackstreet and singer Mya released in ‘98 under Interscope Records as the lead single and theme song from the animated film The Rugrats Movie. Produced and written by Teddy Riley, other writers include Bad Boy rapper, Michael Foster, Madeline Nelson and Tamara Savage with sampling of The Jackson 5s number one hit “I Want You Back”.
The Rugrats movie was an immediate success at the box office and it’s no different on the charts for its theme song peaking at no. 2 on the US Rhythmic Chart and no. 27 on the Billboard Hot 100. Internationally, it reached no. 1 in New Zealand where it stayed for 3 weeks and received platinum status for sales of 10K copies in the country. The single also reached no. 5 in Belgium, no. 8 in Canada and no. 9 in Ireland.
Fun Fact: Blackstreet joined the Rugrats project after finding out they were Nickelodeon’s favorite R&B bbgroup and enlisted the help of Mya and Mase to tap into what was popular with children at the time. Riley certainly knows what he’s doing.
If you need a pick me up or just need to get in a good mood this weekend, then you need to check this one out. So without further ado, here’s Blackstreet & Mya with Take Me There. Enjoy 😊
