"Hot in herre" remains the song that has delivered me more dancefloor joy than just about any other. It was a staple at my house parties well into 2003.― Tim F, Thursday, June 27, 2013 10:03 PM (Yesterday)

word. i didn't even vote for this. to this day it's a great peak of the night club record, when you're drunk enough to be into anything but hearing that slightly ominous intro gives you a good euphoric rush and being able to move into the girl you think might be feeling you, sing along with why you are the bar if you ain't poppin the bottles / what good is all the fame if you ain't fuckin the models.

Not so much a particular phrase, but I've had a problem with it in particular since one day...I was at my friend Stephen's house. He was flipping through channels and the song came on. His daughter started singing along; she's 4. She ran out of the room, and we were like "what?". She came running back in the room totally buck-naked.Actually, I can't quite put my finger on why I dislike the lyrics so much; it's a mix of not-liking-the-women-as-objects-ness of it and the amazement-at-how-juvenile it is. But that's just my opinion, and my opinions are 99% of the time totally retarded wrong.― nickalicious (nickalicious), Tuesday, March 4, 2003 6:56 PM (10 years ago)

tiga's cover of 'hot in herre' too, esp w/ the video. tho this is prob not the place to post it.
expected 'i just wanna love u' to be top 5.
― So: The Answers (or something), Friday, 28 June 2013 11:14 (ten years ago) link
yeah that's the song i was the most worried for the whole time, but by the end i was just happy it was in the top 10 :/

the fact that they added a female R&B singer sensually crooning "what what, what what" in the background will never not be hilarious

gonna be working and posting the rest of the top 10 for most of the day, so i won't update the Spotify playlist anymore until tonight.
― some dude, Friday, 28 June 2013 12:35 (ten years ago) link
i kinda go back and forth on how i feel about "i just wanna luv u" (another kinda weird hook) but some of jay's best rapping is on that
― J0rdan S., Friday, 28 June 2013 12:36 (ten years ago) link
"superthug" is just wild, i can't believe a song like that was even conceived
on "bouncin back" there are points where mystikal is barely even rapping, i don't know how they ever played that on the radio let alone let it become a smash
― J0rdan S., Friday, 28 June 2013 12:37 (ten years ago) link
"I Just Wanna Love U" chorus is the BEST
― some dude, Friday, 28 June 2013 12:42 (ten years ago) link
kinda regret not voting in this, stunned 'grindin' (which would've probably been my #1) and 'hot in herre' and to a lesser extent 'when the last time' didn't make top ten though i guess when the peaks are this high some ridiculously great stuff will miss out. strong ditto to 'hot in herre's club context being necessary to fully getting it, i was actually kinda underwhelmed by it initially and then i heard it in a club and all was revealed (grandmaster flash was djing weirdly enough). when ppl debated neptunes vs timbaland at the time i leaned strongly timbaland but the neptunes stuff actually sounds fresher to me now, maybe it's nostalgia for what was a really good time for pop and hip-hop radio (and the time when there was a ton of crossover between the two) and maybe it's colored by post-peak sub-par neptunes and pharell stuff being so much easier to ignore and write off than w/ timbaland (though 'blurred lines' being so much better than anything on 20/20 experience - and i like 20/20 experience - feels like one hell of a late goal).

actually might've voted 'caught out there' #1 and strongly rooting for it to win now
― balls, Friday, 28 June 2013 13:19 (ten years ago) link
"milkshake" is pretty dope... i would put in the same group as "hollaback girl" but it's much better than that

i thought 'i just wanna love you' might've been #1 surprised to see it so low. i had it a little lower on my ballot for that reason, obv its undeniable

3 Got Your Money2 Like I Love You1 Milkshake
― Shock G Mo Collier (Spottie_Ottie_Dope), Friday, 28 June 2013 15:55 (ten years ago) link
haha didnt mean milkshake, meant Rock Your Body
xpost Guessing the final 3 are "Rock Your Body", "Got Your Money" and "Like I Love You", in some order.
Yay for "Southern Hospitality", amazing tune. Boo for all my favourite tunes that didn't make it, like "The Call (Neptunes Remix)", "Cross The Border", "Roller Rink" and "Ego".

How are you guys forgetting "Can I Have It Like That," you all voted for it
― some dude, Friday, 28 June 2013 16:05 (ten years ago) link
man i've probably said this a million times by now but my favorite thing about "i just wanna love u" is how bc of the video i had like five or six conversations in middle school that centered around the question "omg jay can sing?!?!?!"
