Billboard Hot 100 New Entries, August 2003

"Step in the Name of Love" by miles and miles, esp. since it's really the remix I'm voting for.

yep.

Staind - Officially Missing You - Flip/Elektra - 8/2/03 - 78
Tamia - 24's - Elektra - 8/2/03 - 88

haha i did a double take for a second thinking that a horrible fucking nu metal band had somehow charted with a cover of one of my favorite R&B songs of that year, then saw the T.I. song title credited to that song's singer and realized it's some kind of glitch

Brother's got this complex occupation...

I had no idea "Danger" charted so I was extra stoked to vote for it!

what should i vote for if i'm voting for "officially missing you"

Wow there are some strong joints on this

"step in the love" not being the rmx allows me to vote for "where the hood at"

"suga suga" a very close #2

"damn" is also a 10/10 classic

cool month

"Step in the Name of Love" gets my vote but not by miles and miles at all. I mean, shit, I count 3 10/10s (4 if we count "Officially Missing You" as the Midi Mafia remix) and 17 songs I like, in rough order:

Love me some DMX sometimes, but "Where da Hood At?"'s homophobia rankles.

Ha, I voted for Baby Bash instead on a whim.

oh nvm i didn't notice "suga suga" the first time i looked at the list, voting for that. sry tamia :(

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

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

damn i never saw this, a ton of good stuff here - would've voted "danger" or "can't hold us down"

"step in the love" not being the rmx allows me to vote for "where the hood at"

it is the remix, though, even if not labeled explicitly as such

Can't really fathom not voting for Kels in this one.

Billboard Hot 100 New Entries, September 2003

Don't think I voted in this one; would've gone with Martina McBride, then R. Kelly, then probably Youngbloodz, maybe Hillary Duff.

Actually "Baby Boy" would be pretty close to "Step..." for me.

always kinda hated "Baby Boy," personally.

Yeah -- by far my least favorite single of hers from this period.

I wouldn't go that far -- "Me, Myself & I" is a flaming turd compared to "Baby Boy"

MM&I at least has the advantage of being wiped from my memory banks.

The top two are cool with me. I would've voted for Kels.
