Billboard Hot 100 New Entries, October 2001

"Get the Party Started," not an easy call--"Slave 4 U," "Whenever, Wherever," "Who We Be," and "Wrapped Up in You" all could have had it.

"We Thuggin'" and "You Gets No Love" are so underrated, think i'm gonna vote for the latter. also love "Girls Girls Girls" and like "My Sacrifice" and "Diddy" and "Who We Be," and "I Wanna Talk About Me" is pretty funny too.

at the time, pink. now, shakira. fat joe, jay-z in medal contention.

When the Stars and Stripes and the Eagle Fly

what, no room in the title for the statue of liberty & apple pie?

tipsy keeps tellin' me to speak about the rucker, matter fact i don't wanna speak about the rucker

"all you hear on the radio is x and jigga"

can't decide which one tho

Slave 4 U, plz.

I hate "I Wanna Talk About Me" so bad

Toby Keith seems like a nice guy but that is the worst shit ever

I completely forgot the existence of the faith evans track, which I liked at the time

Jay-Z - Girls, Girls, Girls - Roc-a-Fella/Def Jam - 10/13/01 - 65

City High ft. Eve - Caramel - Interscope - 10/13/01 - 68

Went with Britney over DMX. Time has been kind (OK, I have) to "Whenever, Wherever."

this is kinda weak

obv answer is "caramel"

1 caramel
2 diddy
3 we thuggin
4 girls girls girls
5 lights camera action
6 slave 4 u
7 a woman's worth
8 whenever, wherever
9 #1
10 ballin out of control

i really wish there was still pop & sweet & summery as city high

lol i havent thought of that toby keith song in ten yrs but i like it

whenever, wherever, but will rep the hell out of lights, camera, action

hahaha god I totally overlooked "Caramel" and "LCA" both, they had a shot at it too. I think this is a pretty strong group. (And the Garth is really nice, you guys should hear it.)

I hadn't even noticed these polls before!

Anyway, "I'm Tryin'" is one of the saddest divorced songs of the decade (and one of the saddest divorced dad songs ever, and the best thing Trace Adkins will ever do.) So that, over one of Toby's best singles (and he's had a ton of good ones), and one of Shakira's, too.

City High's bigger hit might have had a shot, but not this one.

("One of the saddest songs of the decade" period, I meant.)

Actually, looks like "Caramel" charted a few spots higher on the r&b chart than "What Would You Do?," which surprises me. But "What Would You Do?" charted higher in the Hot 100, and that's their great one I think.

top 5:

who we be
i'm a slave 4 u
girls girls girls
we thuggin'
a woman's worth

Love Who We Be so much - the brutal, relentless stabbing motion - just noun after noun after noun: "The bullshit, the drama, the guns, the armour."

"We Thuggin'" and "You Gets No Love" are so underrated, think i'm gonna vote for the latter. also love "Girls Girls Girls" and like "My Sacrifice" and "Diddy" and "Who We Be," and "I Wanna Talk About Me" is pretty funny too.

i thought you were big on tha alicia song

That Faith song is so tuff and awesome

voted Britney tho

s this the Nelly song where he says someone "probably got that off of eBay or something"?

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

kev i'm kind of offended that you could misremember that i ever repped for "a woman's worth" and would find it believable

I hate "I Wanna Talk About Me" so bad

Toby Keith seems like a nice guy but that is the worst shit ever

nah man that song owns (i voted for it)

'Toby Keith: nice guy who doesn't write good songs' is so backwards

ha al i'm thinking of "you don't know my name"

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

the top 3 bore the shit out of me and are among my least favorite singles by each singer

congrats on ur opinion, I'll be over here enjoying myself

hey as i said upthread there are a half dozen songs on that list that i like and think are fun, i'm just bummed they all lost to the lamest teenpop/neptunes crossover ever

I regret not casting a vote for Nelly. #1 should not be #0!
