Data Insight
Every track is credited to the two producers and Turbo B under a blanket line, and seven of the eight carry nobody else. The exception is "Ooops Up", which samples the Gap Band and so credits four Wilsons and two more writers alongside them. A debut with one credit repeated eight times.
World Power came out on Logic in May 1990 and is certified gold by the RIAA and platinum in Germany. "The Power" off it reached number 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 and "Ooops Up" number 35.
