"I Think They Like Me (So So Def Remix)" is a song by Dem Franchize Boyz featuring Jermaine Dupri, Bow Wow, and Da Brat from the 2005 albums Young, Fly, and Flashy Vol. 1 and On Top Of Our Game. It is a remix of the song "Oh I Think Dey Like Me" from DFB's first CD, Dem Franchize Boyz. It reached #15 on the US Hot 100, number one on the US R&B/Hip-Hop chart and number four on the US Rap chart. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9iepl4hxv8 There is some debate as to who popularized the dance which commonly accompanies snap music. D4L lays claim to this, as well as Lil Jon with his hit Snap Yo Fingers. Whether or not either of the two did so, however, is academic. Dem Franchize Boyz introduced it on a worldwide scale in their video.
This song is actually a diss track towards an underground southern rap group, Dirty South Rydaz. This beef has yet to achieve national attention like the beef with D4L, but with DSR now signed to a major label, the feud is yet to settle.
Also, since it's a remix, all the Franchize boyz verses are edited, while everyone else's isn't.
A separate remix emerged in the burgeoning Bay Area rap scene by Mistah F.A.B. featuring Squeeze, titled "Stupid Dumb and Hyphy," which used the "I Think They Like Me" beat but replaced the original chorus with:
"In the Bay they get hyphy/Stupid dumb and hyphy."
