"Backyard" is a song by American recording artist Pebbles, featuring a guest rap by Salt-N-Pepa. Taken from Pebbles' second album Always (1990), the song was released as the third single from the album on March 12, 1991.[1]
Pebbles highlights rigors of other women coming between her partner and the need to look out for your significant other, against those interfering parties. The video starts with T-Boz of pre-TLC fame pointing out to Pebbles, that another woman is courting her boyfriend. Being later signed to Reid's Pebbitone management on February 28, 1991 as the music group TLC, this was both Tionne Watkins' and Lisa Lopes' first music video appearances.
Bernadette Cooper of the group Klymaxx also appears in the video playing the drums.
