Derrick Stevens
Derrick Stevens (also known as Derrick 'Delite' Stevens) is a rapper and voice actor best known for lending his voice as MC Skat Kat[1] after the character went solo.[2] The original album version of the song was recorded by The Wild Pair and did not contain a rap verse. Derrick Delite's rap was featured on the remix and video version of Paula Abdul's "Opposites Attract."[2][3] Entertainment Weekly incorrectly asserted that the intro rap was performed by Romany Malco. Romany Malco was not involved with the recording of "Opposites Attract" but was a key contributor for the MC Skat Kat solo project, MC Skat Kat and The Stray Mob.[4]
Stevens is now radio production manager at The Current, a station at Minnesota Public Radio.[3]
