MBNel has done it once again! 

The Filipino American rapper from South Stockton, California, has officially dropped his highly anticipated track, “Make Her Dance,” on all digital streaming platforms. 

The song, which first premiered during a live performance in 2024, brings the energy with a nostalgic twist—sampling Too $hort’s iconic 2003 hit “Shake That Monkey.”

Listeners are already raving about the infectious beat and the hype-worthy vibe since it was performed live, making it a must-add to any party playlist. 

To top it all off, fans can catch the official music video now streaming on MBNel’s YouTube channel.

Interestingly, MBNel isn’t the first Filipino American artist to draw inspiration from this Too $hort classic. Back in 2018, Saweetie put her spin on “Shake That Monkey” with her track “High Maintenance,” where she gave a nod to her Filipino roots with the memorable line, “She a Filipina queen.” 

MBNel follows in those footsteps, having music that resonates with his heritage while staying true to his signature style.

Known for tracks like “Feelings,” “Opulent” and “Manifested,” MBNel has built a reputation for combining raw, introspective lyrics with catchy beats.

“Make Her Dance” adds another layer to his growing discography, showcasing his versatility as an artist.

Beyond the music, what sets MBNel apart is his deep connection to his Filipino heritage

He frequently integrates his cultural pride into his work. For instance, in the music video for his track “Popstar,” this cultural pride takes center stage as the visuals transport viewers to the streets of Manila. 

The video highlights iconic imagery, including the bustling Pasig River and the legendary jeepney—symbols of the city’s dynamic spirit and the essence of everyday Filipino life.

As his career continues to soar, MBNel proves that being unapologetically true to your roots is not only powerful—it’s magnetic.
