1, 2 Step - Ciara feat. Missy Elliott

Video Title :	1, 2 Step - Ciara feat. Missy Elliott
Description :	"1, 2 Step" is a an uptempo hip hop based urban song recorded by Ciara and Missy Elliott for Ciara's debut album Goodies (2004). Written by Ciara and Missy Elliott and produced by Jazze Pha, it was released as the album's second single in October 2004 (see 2004 in music) in the United States and the second quarter of 2005 (see 2005 in music) internationally. It reached the top ten in several countries worldwide. The song is heavily-inspired by 1980s electro music production. Throughout the lyrics, Ciara gives a description how the song's beat feels as she demands party-goers to dance to the music. "1, 2 Step" is one of four songs originally recorded at Doppler Studios in Atlanta two years before the release of Goodies. Pha asked Missy Elliott to appear on the track and she accepted. Elliott recorded her rap verse at the Hit Factory Criteria in Miami. Jazze Pha quoted that he completed the instrumental in four minutes. Pha said after feeling the others' energy in the recording studio makes "the best ones come real quick, in like four to eight minutes". "1, 2 Step" is a R&B--futuristic track, which is strongly influenced by 1980s electro music. The song was created on one of Jazze Pha's five Akai MPC3000s. Pha used laser pulses from E-mu Proteus 2000s that were used for old school hip hop songs and b-boy break dance tracks. Engineer Nico Solis says, "The zaps are his signature, his hi-hat when he's doing futuristic beats".[1] "1, 2 Step" is inspired by Afrika Bambaataa's "Planet Rock". Jazze Pha thought about how he could create a more melodic version, "almost like roller-skating music". He believed it would fit Ciara's image.
