"Hoody Hooo" is the first single from TRU's 1999 album Da Crime Family, and released on No Limit Records. The single was written by Master P, Silkk The Shocker, and C-Murder and is produced by then WNBA athlete Chantel Tremitiere and Beats By the Pound. The song peaked at #31 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks, becoming their signature song.
The song contains samples from the theme to the Halloween film.
The music video was shot in New Orleans, Louisiana. The video starts off with Master P, Silkk The Shocker, and C-Murder in a military base in the future. Also in the video, there are numerous occasions when female dancers are dancing to a white background. Although there appear to be a large number of dancers, there are actually only two thanks to the use of computer graphics. Most of the TRU members are wearing Ricky Williams jerseys, since he was still playing for the New Orleans Saints in 1999 when the video was filmed.
I miss you
How I long to kiss you, baby
Without you, can't go on
Without you, baby
I got a hot wire from my baby
(From my baby)
Ooh, what a sweet little telegram
(From my baby)
She wrote, darling, I love you
There's no one above you
I wish you were home
(Wish you were home)
You been gone so long
Sincerely
(I miss you)
I'm a tell, y'all
(How I long to kiss you, baby)
Every, every day now
(Without you) please
(Can't go on without you, baby)

She wrote, love be with you
And every day, I'll miss you
I wish you were home so bad
(I wish you were home) so bad
You been gone so long, oh

She wrote, baby, I love you
My heart and soul is with you
I wish you were home
(Wish you were home)
You been gone so long
Sincerely
