If That's Your Boyfriend (He Wasn't Last Night)

"If That's Your Boyfriend (He Wasn't Last Night)" is a single by American recording artist Meshell Ndegeocello. It was released in 1993 on Maverick Records. It also appears on her debut album Plantation Lullabies, that was released on October 19, 1993. The single reached number 73 on the US Billboard Hot 100, number 74 in the UK, and number 79 in Australia. Colin Larkin called it a "provocative post-feminist statement" in his Encyclopedia of Popular Music. The single earned Ndegeocello nominations for both Best R&B Song and Best Female R&B Vocal Performance at the 37th Grammy Awards.

The song was the basis of the Queen Pen song "Girlfriend" on her 1997 album My Melody.

Critical reception
Stephen Dalton from NME wrote, "A smart signing by Madonna and possibly the one to break her Sire-linked Maverick imprint out of vanity label status, Me'Shell's throaty but sophisticated rap style is as hard as mahogany and as cool as liquid nitrogen. Imagine a young Grace Jones laying down feisty rhymes over Arrested Development's stroppier, jazzier beats and you're there."
