The song plays during the movie’s closing credits and samples “Forget Me Nots” by Patrice Rushen. It features Smith rapping about how the Men in Black “Walk in shadow, move in silence” and play the role of “first, last and only line of defense, against the worst scum of the universe”, while SWV singer Coko sings the chorus and background vocals. “Men in Black” reached number one in several countries and won Smith a Grammy Award in 1998 for the Best Rap Solo Performance.
