Signing with Blackground Records (home of Aaliyah, one of Timbaland's main collaborators), Timbaland & Magoo went on to release a number of albums, which were not as successful as the singles that anchored them. Singles such as "Up Jumps the Boogie [Remix]", "Clock Strikes [Remix]" (which samples the Knight Rider theme), "Here We Come" (which samples the 1960s Spider-Man theme), "Drop", "All Y'all", and "Cop That Disc" have all proved successful, while the albums that they appeared on have generally underperformed. Their first LP "Welcome To Our World" sold over 1 Million copies

Overall Meaning

The opening dialogue in Timbaland & Magoo's song "Ms. Parker" sets the scene for a flirtatious interaction over the phone. B-Silk greets Ms. Parker and she requests to hear the "new song by the Boo boy and the cartoon character." Timbaland and Magoo are soon identified as the artists behind the requested song. Ms. Parker suggests getting together to listen to the album at her place but is quickly shut down by B-Silk. He only wants to hear the song on the radio and has no interest in Ms. Parker in a romantic sense. The song then transitions into Timbaland's beat dropping and Magoo's verse about a woman he's interested in.

On a deeper level, "Ms. Parker" highlights the power dynamics between men and women in dating and relationships. Ms. Parker is objectified as a potential hookup rather than a person with real feelings and desires. B-Silk's rejection of her advances reinforces the idea that men have control over the situation and can choose to engage or not based on their own desires. Magoo's verse continues this theme as he raps about a woman he's attracted to but also sees as a conquest to be won.

Overall, "Ms. Parker" reflects the societal norms of toxic masculinity and objectification of women in hip-hop culture. It is both a catchy party song and a commentary on the complexities of dating and relationships.
