Billboard Hot 100 New Entries, May 2002

"Grindin'" is the only one I love, but "Days Go By" holds up.

went for "grindin'".. that beat just... aaaahhh...

Haha is this going to be a "Grindin'" landslide? (Runners-up: "Hot in Herre," "Without Me")

"Whoa Now" is wildly underrated. The world just wasn't ready.

"Without Me" is obnoxious as hell, and not in a good way.

first you gotta put your neck into it
don't stop, just do it, do it
theeen you roll your tongue
from the craaack back to the front
then you suck it off til i shake and cum, nigga
make sure i keep bustin nuts, nigga
all over your face and stuff
slow head, show me so much love
the best head comes from a thug
the dick good, thick, big and long
slow fuckin til the crack of dawn
on the edge makin faces and stuff

Hot in Herrrrre

Wow. I forgot all about "My Neck, My Back." Grossest hit single of all-time?

grindin wins every ilx poll that it's in, but it's the best one here

"hot in herre" is overrated on ilx but "grindin" will still crush it here, lot of monster singles on this one actually

Scarface ft. Jay-Z & Beanie Sigel - Guess Who's Back - Def Jam South - 5/18/02 - 85
Sean Paul - Give Me the Light - Black Shadow/VP - 5/4/02 - 97
System of a Down - Toxicity - American - 5/4/02 - 76
Ying Yang Twins - Say I Yi Yi - Collipark/In the Paint - 5/4/02 - 74

these are all monsters -- esp ying yang

Of the ones I know and like, more or less this order:

1. Paulina Rubio - Don't Say Goodbye - Universal - 5/4/02 - 85
2. B Rich - Whoa Now - Atlantic - 5/18/02 - 98
3. Ying Yang Twins - Say I Yi Yi - Collipark/In the Paint - 5/4/02 - 74
4. Clipse - Grindin' - Star Trak/Arista - 5/25/02 - 98
5. Brad Paisley - I'm Gonna Miss Her (The Fishin' Song) - Arista Nashville - 5/4/02 - 66
6. Brooks & Dunn - My Heart Is Lost to You - Arista Nashville - 5/25/02 - 75
7. Eminem - Without Me - Aftermath - 5/11/02 - 44
8. Nelly - Hot in Herre - Universal - 5/4/02 - 49
9. Khia ft. DSD - My Neck, My Back - Artemis/Dirty Down - 5/25/02 - 83

Do agree that B. Rich's second-line New Orleans R&B Jeffersons rap from Baltimore has unjustly gotten the historical shaft, though.

Clipse deserves to win, but I am throwing my vote fully behind Khia, who sings about liking it when things come fully from behind.

B Rich - Whoa Now - Atlantic - 5/18/02 - 98
Mario - Just a Friend 2002 - J - 5/25/02 - 88

torn between these, it was so exciting to drive around Baltimore that spring hearing two fun local songs blow up simultaneously

Oh man I totally had a crush on Sean Paul when I was 18.

<3ed so hard

Surely the Puddle of Mudd and N.O.R.E. song titles and labels are backwards?

My top ten:

Sean Paul - Give Me the Light - Black Shadow/VP - 5/4/02 - 97
Clipse - Grindin' - Star Trak/Arista - 5/25/02 - 98
Nelly - Hot in Herre - Universal - 5/4/02 - 49
N.O.R.E. - Nothin' - - Def Jam - 5/25/02 - 81
Khia ft. DSD - My Neck, My Back - Artemis/Dirty Down - 5/25/02 - 83
Dirty Vegas - Days Go By - Capitol - 5/11/02 - 84
Scarface ft. Jay-Z & Beanie Sigel - Guess Who's Back - Def Jam South - 5/18/02 - 85
Ying Yang Twins - Say I Yi Yi - Collipark/In the Paint - 5/4/02 - 74
System of a Down - Toxicity - American - 5/4/02 - 76
B Rich - Whoa Now - Atlantic - 5/18/02 - 98

completely forgot the existence of the B Rich joint tbh :(

I was at a party a while back where they played "My Neck, My Back" twice in a row. It was an awesome party.

voted Clipse but Brandy, Khia and Dirty Vegas all get my support

I remember all the chatter about the "legitimacy" of "Days Go By."

"Guess Who's Back" is the greatest Kanye beat ever.

yeah that was the song that really got me following him as a producer, amazing track

I remember all the chatter about the "legitimacy" of "Days Go By."

I don't at all.

There was an essay in Slate, I think (maybe it was EW), and certainly internet message board nonsense about using a song so blatantly to push a product.

Oh shit, I didn't even notice "I Told Y'all." That's my No. 2.

I voted Nelly, because it's the best party song on the list.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

I think I still have a small ws flame for Sean Paul.

otm

His videos also always had/have the best dancing; this is very important.

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

ha, awesome tho I can't believe "Days Go By" didn't do better

yeah that song is so damn good

this thread reminded me to listen to the new B. Rich album. it's pretty good! but none of his later indie stuff really sounds like "Whoa Now."

kind of feel 2002 ilx would be (rightfully) appalled at "Toxicity" tying for the top spot with "Grindin'." I love SOAD but imo their only good singles were the first ones off each album, everything after those usually sucked, "Toxicity" included.

never forget
