"I Know You Want Me"

"I Know You Want Me" is a 1998 song by Nastyboy Klick a.k.a. NBK (later active as NB Ridaz), and CeCe Peniston. To the record also contributed bassist Ray Riendeau, most known for his work with singer Rob Halford (from heavy metal band Judas Priest).[1]

The single was released on the various artists' compilation called M.C. Magic Presents Desert Funk Soundtrack, which was produced by Phoenix-based artist Marcus Cardenas on his own Nastyboy Records, and featured an additional track performed by Peniston (the Latino hip-hop ballad "When I'm with You").[2]

On April 18, "I Know You Want Me" peaked at number nine in the U.S. Billboard Bubbling Under Hot 100 R&B Singles as the lead single of the NBK's second full-length album Tha Second Coming, released later on in 1998 on Upstairs Records.
