Leon Haywood (born 11 February 1942, Houston, Texas) is an American funk
and soul singer, best known for his song "I Want a Do Something Freaky To
You". The song was sampled on two of Dr. Dre's single, "Nuthin' But a "G"
Thang" and "The Wash". The song was also sampled on the Redman track
"Rockafella", on Redman's Dare Iz a Darkside album.
Haywood, despite a second Top 40 hit with "Don't Push It, Don't Force It"
in 1980, remains considered a one-hit wonder in the UK.
