"Skat Strut" is a single of the fictional rapper MC Skat Kat, released in 1991. It was the first and only single released from The Adventures of MC Skat Kat and the Stray Mob. The song samples Earth Wind & Fire's 1981 hit "Let's Groove." Although it only reached #96 on the Billboard Hot 100,[1] the video, in which Paula Abdul made a guest appearance, became the most requested on MTV.[2] The song did, however, reach #9 and #31 on the Norwegian and Swedish charts, respectively.[3][4]
