"Nasty Girl" is a song recorded by American group Destiny's Child for their third studio album Survivor (2001). Written by Maurizio Bassi, Naimy Hackett, and its producers Beyoncé Knowles and Anthony Dent, it features a distinct vocal interpolation of Salt-n-Pepa's "Push It" (1987) and Baltimora's "Tarzan Boy" (1985).[2] The song was released as the fourth and final single from Survivor outside North America on March 4, 2002, by Columbia Records.

A moderate commercial success, "Nasty Girl" reached the top ten in Australia and the top 30 in Denmark, the Netherlands, and Switzerland. The accompanying music video for the song was directed by Sanaa Hamri.[3] The song's Maurice's Nu Soul remix served as the second single from the group's remix album This Is the Remix (2002), following the Rockwilder remix of "Bootylicious".[4]
