    You Are A SWV/ CoKo Fan-Addict If......
  1. You have purchased more than 2 copies of any album or single to boost sales, explaining to others that “they are advanced Christmas gifts”.

  2. You have a taped copy of every performance, some more than twice if the tape got worn out from rewinding too much.

  3. You refuse to buy any other girl group’s music, and even turn off the radio if one of their songs comes on…

  4. When driving through a crowded parking lot, you turn up “Weak” and try to get folks to wave their hands from side to side.

  5. You are STILL bumpin’ “Sunshine” like it just came out last week (“Oh, this is my JAM right here…”)

  6. You chuck out 18 dollars to buy a soundtrack for just the one SWV/CoKo song on it (i.e. “Waiting To Exhale”, “Money Talks”, “Booty Call”, “Men In Black” etc.)

  7. You’ve gotten into heated arguments/fights with non-fans about the girls’ looks as if they’d said “yo’ mama”.

  8. You have sweat-drenched sheets when you wake up the morning of an album and/or single release date.

  9. Downtown enlightened you in ahem…many aspects of life, while you laughed at your mother who thought it meant going downtown to shop…

  10. All of a sudden, nine-inch nails are “cute”…

  11. You have an abnormally strong dislike for the RCA Records label.

  12. You have been taking an unusually high interest in other music stars’ record labels.

  13. You know every SWV/CoKo song by heart, even the remixes, and you even know what CoKo is saying on “Weak” (“When the cause and cure is yoooouuuuu…”)

  14. You hate Toni Braxton, Destinys Child and other artists that have stolen SWV’s awards over the last 10 years.

  15. You can’t stand Christina Augilera just because she is the “other” R&B/Pop Diva on RCA Records…

  16. You are convinced that unreleased jams like “On & On”, and “You & Me” were the missing links to SWV’s/CoKo’s superstardom.

  17. You keep up with everyone and their mama’s B-Days (Jazz, CoKo, Tibba, Taj, LeLee, Amy Gregory, etc).

  18. You play “Rain” when it starts to.

  19. Certain seasons and years come to mind whenever you hear certain SWV jams (i.e. “I’m So Into You & “Right Here”= Summertime, 1993, “You’re The One”=Spring 1996 etc, etc.)

  20. You vigorously rearrange SWV/ CoKo CDs in the record stores so that they are in the front of the rows (and you know you’ve done that, so don’t even lie).

  21. You take it as a personal offense if any Keith Sweat or Sweetbox albums are accidentally mixed in with our girls’ records in the stores.
  22. You have more SWV/CoKo posters, memorabilia, and products than any other artist in your room—and you know other people know about you.
  23. You can’t get over the fact that the fabulous “Fine Time” wasn’t put on the radio.

  24. Billboard Magazine is now your friend.
  25. You know the gold/platinum status of every SWV/ CoKo record because you went to RIAA.com.
  26. It didn’t blow your mind at all that EVE wasn’t in the “Triflin’” video (after all, it’s RCA).
  27. You wish that your son looked like Jazz.
  28. You wish your man looked like Ishmael.
  29. You think singers like Nicole Wray, Gina Thompson and Lil' Mo BITE.
  30. You would pay good money to see any video played on MTV just for once.
  31. You’ve called the radio station at least 4 times in one hour disguising your voice each time as if the DJ didn’t know…
  32. Once you get through the lines, you act as if you didn’t know that SWV or CoKo did that last song (“Aye yo, who did that blazin’ track ya’ll just played? CoKo? Naw, fa real? Aw, man, break us off again wit dat jam! Hey wasn’t she with 702, or SWV or sumpin’?”)
  33. Whenever a new song first comes out, you stay up till 3 or 4 A.M. listening to the radio for it—and of course, the DJ doesn’t even play it that night.
  34. You scan for the names “SWV” or “CoKo” in the “Thank You’s” section of other music artists’ album booklets.
  35. You KNOW that SWV would’ve torn up “Waterfalls” if given the chance.
  36. Something about tall, beautiful black chicks on Motorcycles turn you on now, but before 1993 it was a stupid, wack thing.
