1. The Beatnuts are a hip hop group and production duo from Queens, New York City. Its current members are JuJu and Psycho Les. JuJu (born Jerry Tineo on December 4, 1968) is Dominican American from Corona and Psycho Les (born Lester Fernandez on April 10, 1972) is a Colombian American from Jackson Heights. The Beatnuts were originally a trio before Kool Fashion, now known as Al' Tariq, left the group to start a solo career. The Mighty V.I.C. (Groove Merchantz, Ghetto Pros) was also a member of The Beatnuts' production team for a while.
Early on in their career they produced whole albums for Posse members Common Sense and Chi-Ali. Their production is noted as some of the finest and most accomplished, if unheralded, in all of hip-hop, often intricately detailed (as in their finely honed work for Mos Def on two tracks from Black on Both Sides) but more regularly barnstorming, club-friendly, flourish-laden party music. Jennifer Lopez used their track "Watch Out Now" as the instrumental for her song "Jenny from the Block". The Beatnuts produced more songs for the artists they had previously collaborated with as well as Fat Joe, Suprême NTM and Da Youngsta's. At the same time, The Beatnuts made their name as remix specialists by remixing songs for MC Lyte, Da Lench Mob, Naughty by Nature, Jomanda and others.
The Beatnuts are noted for being unabashedly, bullishly ribald and in-your-face performers. Recent Beatnuts albums are characterised by more Latin influences.
Less known is they are considered part of the Native Tongues collective. The Beatnuts are the only Latino members of the Native Tongues collective. Although only peripheral members, they are routinely acknowledged by Q-Tip.

maybe a little nightcap what do you think?
maybe you can make a man fall in love with a blink
right?ain't that right
(echo)
(male)Ohh
[Chorus]
The Beatnuts's song Work That Pole is about going to a club, enjoying the company of women dancing on poles and reciprocating the experience of pole dancing with a lap dance. The song is a classic hip-hop and rap song that portrays the club and its scenes. The chorus is sung by a female voice that is euphemistically encouraging the men in the club to enjoy the pleasures of a dance with her. The lyrics convey the idea of male dominance, with the mention of ladies trying to seduce them and the gentlemen giving in to their demand. In JuJu's verse, he mentions the dream of having a little condo with a nightcap and falling in love at first sight with a woman on the pole.
Overall, the song Work That Pole is a fun representation of club scenes, which many people could find degrading to women. Nevertheless, the song has an upbeat hip hop tempo, which could be enjoyable to many.
