Kris Kross - "Jump"
Lil' Bow Wow wasn't the first pre-teen rapper that Jermaine Dupri decided the world needed to hear. Almost a decade earlier he came across little Chris Kelly, and Chris Smith and Kris Kross was born. They did it first and, maybe I'm blinded by nostalgia, I think they did it best (backwards clothes excluded).
Totally Krossed Out was among the first CDs I ever got, and it was definitely the first rap record I ever owned. My 5-year old self used to crank this and bounce off the walls whenever I put it on. To be honest, my 22-year old self still does. Don't try to play it cool and act like you don't get a little pumped whenever "Jump" comes on either.
