Technotronic's vocalist Ya Kid K was initially overshadowed by Congolese model Felly Kilingi, who appears lip-syncing in the music video and was featured on the first album cover as a marketing tactic. Ya Kid K was ultimately recognized upon a U.S. tour and a repackaged album cover that featured her instead of Felly. In 2005, the song was remixed by DJ-producer D.O.N.S. and reached number one on the British Dance Chart. The Guardian featured the song on their "A History of Modern Music: Dance" in 2011. And in 2020, Slant Magazine ranked it at number 40 in their list of "The 100 Best Dance Songs of All Time". (en)

  • Pump Up the Jam is de openingstrack op uit 1989 van de Belgische groep Technotronic. De basis voor het nummer produceerde Jo Bogaert samen met Patrick De Meyer onder de naam The Pro 24's. Ze produceerden de single Technotronic, die gebaseerd is op The Acid Life van Farley Jackmaster Funk. Deze versie bevat samples van Eddie Murphy in plaats van zang. Erg veel interesse was er niet in het nummer, maar het platenlabel hoorde toch wel enige potentie. Medewerker Patrick Busschots adviseerde Bogaert het nummer van rap te voorzien omdat hiphouse op dat moment populair aan het worden was. Het idee was om voort te borduren op de hits van Inner City. Via via kwam hij in contact met de zeventienjarige Zaïrese rapster Manuela Kamosi (Ya Kid K). Kamosi had weinig met dancemuziek, maar greep de kans aan om een plaat te kunnen opnemen. In het trappenhuis van zijn flat bouwde hij een voice-booth waar de raps voor het nieuwe nummer genaamd Pump Up the Jam werden opgenomen. Het nummer werd een (bijna) wereldwijde nummer 1-hit, wat resulteerde in hét Vlaamse verkoopsucces van 3,5 miljoen verkochte exemplaren. Zowel in Groot-Brittannië als in de Verenigde Staten bereikte het nummer de tweede plaats in de hitlijst en was tevens het eerste house/New Beat-nummer dat mainstream werd. Het nummer behaalde driemaal platina. In Nederland werd de plaat veel gedraaid op Radio 3 en werd een grote hit. De plaat bereikte de 2e positie in zowel de Nederlandse Top 40 als de Nationale Hitparade Top 100. In thuisland België bereikte de single in zowel de Vlaamse Ultratop 50 als de Radio 2 Top 30 de nummer 1-positie. In 2005 verscheen er een remix van muziekproducer , wat leidde tot een eerste plaats in de . (nl)

  • "Yes, it is exactly that: a song. People sing along, they know the lyrics. Well, not all the lyrics. Most think Manuela [Ya Kid K] sings 'I want, a place to stay', but she sings 'Awa, a place to stay.' Awa is swahili for 'a place to stay, a home'. Beyond all expectations PUTJ still sounds fresh, I am told." (en)
