Roxanne Shanté (born Lolita Shanté Gooden on November 9, 1969, in Queens, New York, USA) is an American hip hop vocalist and pioneer. She rose to prominence due to her hit Roxanne's Revenge, which sold over 250,000 copies in the New York area alone. Her career began unusually, at the age of 14, when she ran into three men talking about UTFO, who had recently canceled their performance at a show they were performing. Shanté offered to record an answer to UTFO's recent hit Roxanne, Roxanne, which was about a woman who would not notice them.
