Remake "Here Comes the Money" for EVERY currency - Jim Johnston & Naughty By Nature
The Issue
To Anthony "Treach" Criss, Vincent "Vinny" Brown (Naughty by Nature), Jim Johnston, and All Relevant Stakeholders.
For nearly a quarter of a century, the 2001 track "Here Comes the Money" has served as the definitive global audio signifier for financial prosperity and transactional velocity. From professional sports arenas to digital content broadcast platforms worldwide, its opening refrain acts as a universal celebration of economic achievement.
However, in its current state, the track suffers from a severe, systemic limitation: localized monetary bias.
By exclusively repeating the phrase "Dolla, dolla," the composition inadvertently enforces an American-centric hegemony over global wealth expression. Every single day, millions of hard-working global citizens participate in financial transactions: via digital gratuities, peer-to-peer donations, or traditional commerce, while using currencies that are actively marginalized by this audio track.
When a citizen in Tokyo drops a donation on Twitch, or a worker in Frankfurt achieves financial success, the subsequent broadcast of "Dolla, dolla" is not only socio-economically inaccurate, it is a missed opportunity for true global financial inclusion.
We, the undersigned, citizens of the internet, do not seek the cancellation of this iconic work. Instead, we demand its comprehensive expansion. We call upon Naughty by Nature and maestro Jim Johnston to return to the studio to record an exhaustive, definitive, multi-disc master edition of "Here Comes the Money."
This updated archive must feature individual, studio-grade vocal takes replacing the phrase "Dolla, dolla" with every legal tender currently recognized by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO 4217).
True inclusivity means that every global citizen, regardless of geography, deserves to hear these legendary artists aggressively shouting their specific national currency with identical rhythmic cadence and vocal urgency. We demand separate, distinct tracking for:
- The Euro ("Euro, euro!")
- The Japanese Yen ("Yen, yen!")
- The South African Rand ("Rand, rand!")
- The Kazakhstani Tenge ("Tenge, tenge!")
- The Guatemalan Quetzal ("Quetzal, quetzal!")
- ...and all remaining 175+ global fiat currencies, without exception or omission.
Wealth knows no borders. Economic joy should know no linguistic boundaries. It is time to rectify this historic oversight. Sign this petition to demand that Naughty by Nature and Jim Johnston clock back into the studio and do the necessary, exhaustive work to unite the global economy, one specific currency cadence at a time.
