Blackstreet initially became involved with '' The Rugrats Movie '' ( 1998 ) and its soundtrack after finding out that they were Nickelodeons favorite R&B group . Looking for other ways to tap into what was popular with children , Teddy Riley enlisted the help of Mýa and Mase . Riley explained , " It would appeal to the kids , and to get a more ... broader audience of the kids , it would be great to have Mýa and Mase . " This collaboration resulted in the song " Take Me There " , which Riley produced , incorporating the '' Rugrats '' theme song . Backstage at the MTV Video Music Awards , Mýa talked about the collaboration , saying , " We knocked it out in one day . Kids came to the studio to hear the song , and they were listening to the song and they were just singing right along , because the song rings a bell when you first hear it . " " Take Me There " is a contemporary R&B / rap song with a soft melody . It runs for four minutes and four seconds . The full-length version , including the instrumental section , is five minutes and two seconds . It contains interpolations of the original '' Rugrats '' TV theme , which was written by Mark Mothersbaugh ( uncredited ) , with an additional hip hop/rap beat
