"Freak Me" is a R&B ballad recorded by Atlanta, Georgia-based vocal quintet Silk in 1993. It was co-written and co-produced by Keith Sweat, for whom Silk was a touring opening act.
The song was released as the second single from Silk's album Lose Control. Their first single, "Happy Days", stalled at number eighty-six, but "Freak Me" became their first (and to date, only) number-one song on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100.
The song was covered by British boy band Another Level in 1998. This version reached number one on the UK Singles Chart.
