Songfacts®:

  • "Bremelo" is a term related to a woman, or anyone who resides in the town of Bremerton, Washington. Bremerton is a city just a ferry ride away from Sir Mix-a-Lot's home of Seattle.

    The Bremelo in this song is kinda hideous, with a triple chin, huge nose, and hairy armpits. >>>

  • This is a track from Sir Mix-a-Lot's debut album, Swass. It had already gone Platinum by the time he released "Baby Got Back" four years later.

  • J. Hammers from Tacoma"A woman or any person who lives in Bremerton ". Nope....a big, fat girl.
  • Will from Seattle, WaBremelo refers to an ugly woman, not just a woman from Bremerton. He's really saying that women from Bremerton are ugly and unkempt.
