While Hot, Cool & Vicious received some chart success, a San Francisco DJ named Cameron Paul's remix of "Push It" (The b-side to "Tramp") became a national hit and was nominated for a Grammy. Green was then replaced with DJ Spinderella[?] for A Salt With a Deadly Pepa[?], which was significantly less successful. Their third original LP was Blacks Magic[?], which received generally positive reviews and expanded Salt-N-Pepa's fanbase among hip hop fans. It included "Let's Talk About Sex", one of their biggest songs.
Dropping Aznor, Salt-N-Pepa released Very Necessary[?] in 1993 (see 1993 in music), and it was performed very well on the charts, buoyed by "Shoop" and "Whatta Man" (with En Vogue[?]). Since Very Necessary, both Salt and Pepa have focused primarily on their acting careers.
