"Thoia Thoing" is a song by American singer R. Kelly. It was written and produced by Kelly for his 2003 compilation album The R. in R&B Collection, Vol. 1. The song was released as the album's lead single in July 2003 and peaked at number 13 on the Billboard Hot 100. In the United Kingdom, the song was released on a double A-side with "Step in the Name of Love" and in selected territories with "Snake," both lifted from his previous album Chocolate Factory (2003).
The music video was directed by Little X, who directed most of Kelly's videos at that time.[1] R. Kelly's wife at that time, Andrea Kelly was the choreographer and main background dancer in the video.
The official remix features Birdman and Busta Rhymes, and appears on the bonus CD of the DVD album The R. in R&B Video Collection. The remix can also be found on the mixtape The Diplomats 5 featuring Cam'ron.
All tracks written by R. Kelly; "Snake" co-written by Darian Morgan.Notes
