...i can be a tease, but i really wanna please you...
Check On It, originally included on Destiny's Child's #1s compilation and later featured in the closing credits for The Pink Panther, was released on December 13, 2005. Subsequently, with no promotion from Knowles herself, the song hit #1 in February of 2006 (for five consecutive weeks) and became the 10th biggest song of that year.
My favorite Beyoncé song of all time, I remember my mom being obsessed with it and making the choreo with her best friend all the time when I was 9 truly an iconic bop of my childhood.
I remember there being a MV preview on MTV News and on the next day me lying to my classmates that I'd already seen the full thing. They didn't believe me.
this song was partially ruined for me when someone pointed out that half the song is kelly's vocals how did we never notice
anyways, it's cool to be at the age where i can genuinely remember what 10 years ago was like. this song still bops after all that time. plus, i still love bun b's verse (and voice hihi)
This song gives me the most nostalgia of any Beyoncé hit for some reason. Probably because it's legit her most ignored hit and I forgot it existed for some years.
It just screams mid 2000s everything about it is SO 2006. From the rap verses to the lyrical content to the beat to the music video. It's a time when dated is good.
It gives me such good nostalgia. I get happy every time I listen.
Brings back so many memories. I remember the teacher letting us watch this on the computer and this boy said he wanted to rape her. My good that's a horrible memory to have of this song.
