Newcleus - Jam On Revenge (The Wikkie-Wikkie Song)

Posted on | April 8, 2008 |

A precursor to the group, known as Jam-On Productions, formed in 1977 in Brooklyn, New York, which included teenagers Ben “Cozmo D” Cenac and his cousins Monique and Pete Angevin. The group’s popularity grew as it played block parties in Brooklyn. By 1979, the primary group’s members were Cozmo D, Yvette “Lady E” Cook (who would later marry Cozmo D), Monique Angevin, and Bob “Chilly B” Crafton (who would later marry Monique).

Newcleus recorded “Jam-On’s Revenge”, a block party favorite which featured vocals that were sped up to resemble Alvin and the Chipmunks. The track impressed record producer Joe Webb, and it became the group’s first single in 1983 on Mayhew Records. It was re-released later that year on Sunnyview Records as “Jam On Revenge (The Wikki-Wikki Song)”, and it made the Top 40 on the R&B charts.
